Reminds me of my old classical guitar teacher who told me when playing a piece hit each note with good timing and with confidence and even if you hit an incorrect pitch most people won’t know. Hit all the right notes but with poor timing and everyone will know. Rhythm is key to sounding like you know what you’re doing. From your lessons I’ve learned so much and especially love this sort of lesson that just inspires me to put on a jam track and just go for it. Thank you.

You can switch beetween blues and diatonic. Let say you play in A dorian key, your diatonic scale would be A dorian, B phyrgian, C lydian, D mixolydian, E aeolian, F#locrian, G major. But, this is the secret, you can replace all that diatonic scales with two blues scale (major and minor). Dorian, phyrgian, aeolian -> minor blues. Ionian, Lydian, Mixolydian -> major blues. Locrian stay in locrian, but you can add chromaticism b7,7,1. However, those switch needs to resolve to the diatonic notes that become the special features of the scale (like Phyrgian, the special features are b2 & #5. Lydian, #4 & 7. And so on). Those switch not only make more interesting solos, but also easier, since we often forget our position related to diatonic scale once we're moving to other frets, so just play blues scale and remember the diatonic notes later after we get the feel.

Its funny how satchel mention this in one of his lesson in GuitarWorld. He said "you can play chromatically any note you want as long as you hit the right note on a downbeat, but i expect you to hit the right notes or else ill come to your house"

Great lesson David if you slow it down it sounds like a jazz blues solo aka Robin Ford. A good way to practice is by just playing the pentatonic a few times then start singing the notes and you find your fingers seem to know the pitch and just go there, play with rhythm add a few more notes and your on your way.

I agree with that for every genre except maybe heavy metal shred. You're not really looking rhythmic elements there. It's more about a machine gun of notes, perfectly timed and shot out in creative ways. I'm only mouthing off for fun. He's right 99% of the time.

Who cares what fools alot of people!? What people want is this rhythm and feel, like the party they want. That means that whoever is playing drums, the most important instrument in the world that I'd want to play with, is gonna have to blast off! Tony Williams took control over a song like that once, and it is phenomenal. So, I think the whole thing is a feel and sound. Not people analyzing your melody and harmony. Plus, you want the long sought after female constituent in your audience for this kind of music. And if we face up to that fact, that's where it's at. If you do so, you've hit the mother lode.🥳🏌♀
