I just close my eyes and go for it! Lol Seriously, one of the reasons I love songs like this is, the art of improvisation is almost nonexistent these days. People are afraid to put themselves out there. They’re afraid they’ll make a mistake. One of my favorite guitarists is knopfler. Listen to him live, he makes mistakes, but he plays through them. That, is what makes a player. My first statement is half serious. I learned my fretboard decades ago. There’s certain songs like this, where I really do just close my eyes and jam. Play what you feel. Let it go. Talk to the people through your notes. If you mess up, play through it. The ABB did this too….you can hear the mistakes in the filmore album, and that’s what makes it special. Ok, this old man will shut up now……. Great video brother.

"There aren't any wrong notes." Miles Davis. By the time the ABB released their first album I had been immersed in the Dead's early albums working very hard to understand what Jerry was playing and often trying to sort out the counterpoint leads between Jerry and Bobby. Whipping Post was my very first favorite ABB long jam. By then Live Dead had been worn out a couple of times. Some of my neighbors thought I needed to be locked in an asylum because of playing albums over and over.

Actually, I also have a question, now that I think about it: why does that E-flat work in the G-major scale? Is there something about this progression? I was recently looking at another solo done over a G-C alternating progression-the soloist uses the E-flat as a passing tone in the G-major scale & it sounds like it belongs there. PS: I also posed this question to Sean before I watched your video. The question seems more apropos here. :)

By definition there is a key change. I originally thought this was Amin to B yada yada , but here we indeed do have the A Major .... I would say Key of A for up until the C and then a brief key change to C or G if you want to really get deep and back to A, I can talk about this on my next live feed. But in this case the Soloing still works for the A dorian scale.
