Legendary guitarist Jubu Smith, dropping knowledge to all musicians looking to become a legendary

Right at the end of the interview ….”Once I slowed down-That’s when it happened.” I’m a shut in due to illness, in a small town with few musicians and even fewer opportunities to play with folks and my greatest insights wasn’t a scale, a chord formula or speed….it was time, economy and listening, not to what I wanted to hear but to where sound lead me. I slowed down and would hear the harmonic content of the note and that would lead me to new places. I began to hear what sound had to teach me. It’s a bit like learning the geography of music, the map of what you are capable of, giving insight for exploring past that. I really loved this in the moment revelation.

[@kelvinhall1698]

JuBu has established himself clearly as a voice to aspiring young guitar players most definitely! Howard Carroll did not need a Band but could carry the program, the group and the song on his back with no effort at all. I play too but have never seen a guy who was everything just on the guitar. Carroll was the man!!!!!

[@theoutsiders7217]

[@oculusnomadslosttribe5672]

Beautiful 🎸

[@nathanwalsh3028]

Well said. As a drummer I've learned it's more important to know music besides just the drum parts. Understand chord structure and simple song structure like what is the chorus? what is the bridge? where's the turnaround after the bridge? Understanding those simple elementary things will help you in communication with your band tremendously and they will appreciate it. Plus some of my major influences on the drums are not drummers such as Jaco Pastorius... James Brown... Jimi... Like you said step outside of your Box and sponge.

[@jayhill1242]

I told this young guy the other day that wanted to learn how to play guitar to learn quartet and he looked at me crazy. I didn't even explain why. I just let him have it. Quartet music will get you right on the guitar especially because they had to fill a lot of time with just a bass and a guitar. They had to carry the rhythm and lead.

[@aydenburris8631]

I listen to saxophone and harmonica players to learn blues guitar. Wind instruments have an amazing way of playing the blues in a personal way
