Another incredible lesson. Thanks!! I stole SRV's very similar lick from "Blues at Sunrise" from the "In Session w/ Albert King DVD/CD." Would be happy to send a tab if you haven't already figured it out.
BTW...is the body of your guitar Zebrawood?---incredible balance of snappy highs and rich bass...nice.
minute 7:33 begins a very musically enlightening comment. Where you mention that stevie is playing "stream of consciousness" he's "playing as it comes to him." SRV is inventing as he plays. And it illuminates the point that though i like trying learn to play like someone, even SRV isn't playing the same all the time. So there isn't necessarily a wrong way. SRV isn't coping even himself. And in time i want that creativity too.
This is nice, accurate and explained well. IMO better to learn fragments of it and use them more freely. Well unless maybe you want to do a tribute show. What is said about "it wouldn't be as interesting" : I think it could be more interesting. A good improviser in any style needs the freedom to link short phrases fluently. This is the path to sounding less derivative than others . Saying Hendrix style licks, while obvious to me, is responsible to the students appreciation . Nice job. KUDOS
ohmm my god thanks anthony this is what i wanted so long i just couldnt figure it out i played it 100 times and still notothing. this is 6 star super video !!!!!!!!!
I just want to say that these lessons enable people like me to learn guitar parts I'd otherwise never learn. You are a great teacher and I'm sure an awesome person as well. I think your lessons will take me to the next level, as long as I have the discipline I need to practice. Thanks
Thank you so much Anthony. I had given up on my dream of playing SRV licks till I found your videos. I bet Stevie Ray smiles every time you play. I can't wait to get started on this project!
sorry i was just stoked when you threw up a lesson for this one. i always smile when i hear stevie do it in the el mocambo version and never thought i could learn it. but thank you anthony. appreciate all of your helpful lessons. i overexagerated a little man, but much thanks to you my friend.
Great job on the playing and thanks for showing how to do it. This is a very useful lick. I'm gonna try to learn it by ear first, but if I get stumped (which I probably will, I've only been playing 1 and a half years) I'll be sure to come back to this lesson and maybe even use the tab on your site.
a bit sloppy in the beginning but great lesson!

anthony - you break this down so well as always ...
not only is it an 'impossible' lick to play ... but look closely on the vid ... SRV plays it with his eyes closed !!
