Everybody's got some kind of course, lessons, or some kind of a system they wanna sell you to take your money. People that know how to play this or that usually don't wanna show you how to do it unless you pay them.
hey I think this sounds great. The exact way I want to play, following the chord changes, which I find very hard to do. Do you still think a player should practice running scales, or should a player just focus more on learning the fretboard and knowing where the sweet notes of the chords are?
@Dashooter911 ...thanks, mate. There's an old saying: "Practice scales and you'll wind up playing scales". I wouldn't put my practice time into that, if I were you. I'd just concentrate on making melody, and, as my saying goes: "Melody loves chord tones".
@planetalk I'd like to ask you how you go about doing this, but I have a feeling your gonna say "buy my course" but Im guessing its something like "ok, here comes the 4 chord, gonna hit that 3rd, etc."
@JordiiixD ... thanks, mate. Well, there's not much left over once you can see all the chord tones and you simply get to know what works and what doesn't over each chord. It all takes practice, of course, but once you can truly zero in the chord tones and use them as the outlines non chord tones are easy to slot in. It all comes down to numbers in the end. You can always test the waters by playing a chromatic run between chord tones, which always works so long as you get the timing right.
An absolute pleasure to hear and watch. This is someone that REALLY knows the scales, and how to apply them beautifully. I hope he puts more stuff up on any electric guitar. (I'm hanging onto this hyperlink. I want to disect and improvise further on what is going on while each chord is played.).
@yourtreat2 ... thanks, mate. The truth is that I stopped trying to figure out how to solo using scales in about 1975. I never could make sense of them all and the idea of sticking to 'the blues scale' always seemed pretty monotonous and boring to me. All my lines come from the chords, which I really do know well.
@planetalk Just want you to know that I listen to this vid almost every night. I appreciate your having explained your approach to playing lead. It's not what people commonly hear, but there's quite a bit of value to be taken from your approach. --- I was particularly amused by one poster whom found your playing to be so "on target" that they asked what tuning you used. Certain juxtaposed 2 note non-combo notes that slowly climb a scale after returning to a lower note are unusally interesting.
@yourtreat2 ... I'm glad you like it! I never really wanted to sound like anyone else, so I never put time into those Pentatonics or Blues Scales. Why stick to 5 or 6 notes when there are 12 to play around with?
That's what I call improv! Thank you! A few times, that plectrum would have helped, me thinks. You can only carry it so far....finger-picking is great but damn - sometimes you need to let it loose. Thanks for the post!
Kirk, CAPTAIN KIRK...I always, always find my way back to "Planetalk"...should be called "Guitartalks". You my friend should be at CROSSROADS GUITAR FESTIVAL 2011! Without a doubt! So, currently who are you working with these days? Am I correct that you were working with Ringo Starr and ex lead singer of a popular Ausralian pop band, his name escapes me right now......uh.....ratz....cant remember it. lol.
hey man can you please explain to me what you're doing to make that sound around 2:40... i hear it in so many blues tunes (a lot of slow srv tunes) and i can never figure it out. i've got an idea now from listening and now watching you do it, but what's your way of putting it?
HI! AMAZING! SORRY FOR MY ENGLISH, IM FROM ARGENTINA, YOU CAN TELL ME WHAT SCALES YOU USE IN A BLUES PROGRESION? ONLY MINOR PENTATONIC AND BLUES SCALE? WHAT SCALE USE IN A DIFFERENT CHORD? AND THE TEMPO? HAHA SORRY THIS ARE A LOTS OF QUESTIONS, AMAZING IMPROVISATION, GOOD LUCK
Nice feel.......I like the finger picking style you have going on, little bit blue, little bit country, little bit Red. It made me feel kind of good, nice playing does that for me, thanks for posting. Love those custom vintage color strats. I have a 57 reissue that looks surf green, I think it was actually sonic blue when I bought it back in 1989, but with the nitro yellowing a bit, it now looks more surf green, then the light blue color it used to be. What year is your guitar?
@1jimif ... thanks, mate. The guitar belongs to a friend of mine. I've got a couple of Strats, but this one is particularly nice to play. I wish it was mine!
@kj122 ... I'm going through a little RP 100 modeler for this, kj, but it's pretty much the same sound as I'd get through my Fender Hot Rod Deluxe with a touch of overdrive and reverb. Thanks for the nice feedback.
@nswombo ... thanks, mate. As for scales ... I don't really know. All I do is follow the chord changes and build my lines around their tones. I guess a lot would be Myxolydian ... with a lot of passing tones thrown in. Melody is what I'm always striving for, and melody is easier found in the chords, not the scales ... from my experience, anyway. I was never good at juggling scales around. The trick is to see the whole fretboard as 'the chord'.
Wow... i wish i could play the blues... i have a guitar and amp... (both peavy) but, i just find myself in a rut... like i am stuck... u konw... any tips?
I might have said this before but we should start a campaign to get Eric Clapton to invite Kirk to the next years "Crossroads Guitar Festival!" Come on people..get behind me....what do you say to this idea???
I'm no were near as good as this guy but, can any of you guys check my blues improvisation out I really want some good advice and feedback, much appreciated.
Wow, you're amazing! Alot of blues guys get stuck on pentatonic phrasing, and the fact that you don't is awesome. But I do have one question. You said on another comment that you follow the chord changes. Does that mean that you take an arpeggiated approach to your soloing? Because it's genius! It seems simpler to take that approach, because there isn't too much to worry about, and it seem easier to be melodic...I'm at a brick wall musically right now, what approach should I take to progress?
@hiphopsucks96 ... Thanks for the feedback. Yes, arpeggiated I guess is the way you'd have to describe it. But the trick is to see the whole fretboard as 'the chord of the moment' so that you don't get stuck in one position. That can get as boring as the Pentatonic. And you're right: once you get away form thinking scales and thinking chords, you can never really go wrong, no matter what changes there may be.
How to progress? Buy my book/DVD and join us PlaneTalkers at the forum!
@Madoldmatt ... I don't think scales/modes, Madolmatt. I follow the chord changes. If you want to learn more about the mindset I use, click the link to the right ... I wrote a book about it all.
@planetalk I'm the exact same way, I cant read a lick of music nor do I understand or use modes/scales. Well I understand scales, but you get what I mean :)
Wow you are really great sir. I just put your songs on while im sitting here at work and listen like it's a radio. (but then i don't get any work done cuz i keep switching over to the video to watch you)
@StratEdition going to formal classes is great, but learning on your own is a harder-fought, more noble, and ultimately more rewarding experience...that's only my opinion though....i've been learning guitar from internet and books, and it's so much fun, feels so good when i succeed
@lordOFbrooklyn Yes self-taught requires a lot of effort but with lessons you also have to do an amazing effort for me the lessons are for evaluation:the teacher says what are you doing wrong and how to correct it, that's the bases of lessons.
I don't really think in scales at all, Charlie. I just see the whole fretboard as 'the chord' and use its tones to outline my melody lines. In the blues, there are always at least 4 chord tones plus the flat 3 plus any other extensions, like the 9. If you can see them all there, you can use them ... join the dots, so to speak ... and always be on the money, no matter what the progression is or if it modulates to temporary key changes. It's a whole other mindset from scales.
