Very nice..one or two of these things I've been doing on soul songs just because I thought they sounded good. It's great how you explain them in a technical / theory way. Great to see someone looking at the professional session way of guitar playing rather than shredding.

[@justin.m5872]

The beginning riff just sounds like the most amazing thing i heard

[@TheTrollMastah]

It sounds like a number of oldies I know.. almost Like Clouds by The Districts I think

[@ChrisVanDeusen]

It's really hard to find guitar lessons without the academic jargon. Well done!

I've been looking for this stuff but didn't actually know what genre the licks im hearing my head were. Lol Its kinda Jimis' style on little wing and others. This is going to help me. Of course I see know its 60's rnb. Makes sense I'm 52 so I heard it on am growing up. Digging it.
