Any time im practicing im recording myself bc i have a tendency to randomly play something cool but by the time you pull the phone out you cant seem to play it the same way that was the power of pure spontaneity. Not to mention what i like to do is keep the initial riff playing like you and ill keep doing takes and playing it with slight variations and then decide which I like best or whatever.
