Slow Blues Guitar Backing Track in the Key of G To practice

[QualityJamTracks]

Check out my backing tracks

[whoddaya]

How the hell are there ANY dislikes at all on this one?

[bobchillaxd]

@whoddaya Good question.

[RADIOACTIVEBUNY]

Who's heard of the band Meshuggah?

Because that's how I got here... not exactly blues, lol. Then again, it's like comparing a pug to a wolf. Completely different, but if you go back far enough, you get to the same roots.

[TheEpicGREENMAN]

@RADIOACTIVEBUNY Meshuggah fuckin rules lol

[RADIOACTIVEBUNY]

@TheEpicGREENMAN Yes it does, my fine Djentleman.

[rhabarberkompott]

this is a real good backing track to learn and jam on, cause it puts your own playing on spot. you can't hide behind a big fat production. thanks! ;)

[mathlab4]

this guy is a huge homo

[slidhome]

AIN'T SLOW ENOIGH

[noletolucas]

no harmonica video responses? trying to get some ideas...

[OfficialPTP]

fighting on a blues video. ugh i think i got the blues now.

[slydog00a1]

thanks

[badsalad313]

Crossroads reference!!

[MrGotmymojoworkin]

Hey, just wanna say - that's really helpful and it's a tight piece of playing. One thing it ain't though, is slow. Absolutely no complaints man - just such a lot of help. Thank you very much.

[mrletterman53]

Really useful, thanks.

[JohnnyNokaster]

AHHHH SHUT UP and quit acting like a bunch of 3 year old kids. Thats exactly the reason Congress, The Senate and the President can't get nothing done. They're a bunch of dysfunctional babies.

[gilmour480]

What do you call a bunch of Americans and Canadians bickering about bullshit? Children. Nationality means squat, grow the fuck up and just jam to the tune.

[tokumas]

The guitar is too noisy!!

[liamdawillaboy]

What do you call an American with a brain.....?

A. Canadian

[ragingstorm33]

@liamdawillaboy what do you call a Canadian with a brain? for real someone tell me i never meet one. and why do all Canadians ask if we know who there prime minister is? who cares!! theres more people in ny state then in all of Canada why would i care hahaha. but for real you fucking people are rude stay in Canada.

[mattdd05]

@ragingstorm33 Canada has over 30 million people, New York State has over 18 million. Second of all, why are you bragging that NY state has more people than Canada does? If you think overcrowding makes a country better, go live in China. Canada is the second largest country in the world, even though we only have 30 million people that means more land/space for us. Our country wouldn't be overcrowded even if we had 1 billion people living here. Your country is small and shit. Enjoy.

[aleg12]

@ragingstorm33 and do you also believe that we also live in igloos you fucking asshole? just like anywheres else there are fucking idiots, but why would you generalize the whole fucking country. i bet that in the states you hillbillies must have pretty awkward fathers day, wondering if its your brothers baby or your cousins baby. nuff said

[SuperDockman]

ugh that shit pisses me off when the backtrack buffers in the middle of your solo

[BeatBay]

Is this the worst jamtrack ever? HELL YEAH!!!!

[RandomNPC15]

@BeatBay it's a simple 12 bar blues track for learners to jam to, what kind of intricacies were you stupidly expecting?

[BeatBay]

@RandomNPC15 maybe this is enough for canadians, but we in the USA expect more, when you put tracks on the net! those canadians siss.. USA USA USA !!!!!

[RandomNPC15]

@BeatBay I guess you want a whole song playing to make you sound good. Seems like even beginners don't want that.

[Lamirande666]

@BeatBay You know man... It's for people who wants to know how to jam. I'm Canadian and I can tell you that we have a lot of blues players here... And if you are as good as you say, why don't you have a band?

[mattdd05]

@BeatBay LOL a real musician doesn't need a complex backing track to jam over. This guy probably doesn't even know how to play, so when he hears a backing track like this he doesn't understand how to solo over it. Here's a hint newbie solo in G minor pentatonic.

[ragingstorm33]

@mattdd05 dude not cool..you can use the major too lol

[mattdd05]

@ragingstorm33 Lol that guy was just talkin trash about this backing track, and saying that this backing track is only good enough for Canadians.He missed the point that it doesn't matter how good the backing track is, its how you play over it that makes it sound good.

[7th75thCallaghan]

@BeatBay If you can't play something that makes this sound good, then you aren't a good player.

[wesja13]

yup. add a few pentatonics and  WALAH. VERY COOL SHTUFF

[IWearScarfs]

This really helps my improv. on bass!

Good for learning to walk or solo, thanks. :)

[NerfHerderD17]

fun track to play over.

[th3undead123]

Wow, you haters really are faggots. The title says for PRACTICE, not for CASUAL LISTENING.

[goribigon]

nice 1 Marty !

[AuverAskerud]

This is lame, sorry.

[bobmango54]

its a good movie, crossroads that is

[TheArsong]

slow blues ???

[HammerofGod555]

Im not sure which I'd rather do. Try to play something to this too simple of a track OR ignore it completely to read the lame dialog about a Ralph Macchio film... Just not sure which could benifit me more...

[albafro]

@HammerofGod555

Too bad you couldn't find a Youtube video that would teach you how not to be a faggot.

[whatevergoes66]

This is fab :) What chords are you playing? :)

[FeelTheFight]

It's terrible... Jamming to techno is easier than jamming to this

[dirtydonki]

Boring after a while

[Aztlnight]

to favorites, right now!

[MateoQuebecChile]

thanks Marty! I love your material! If I wasn`t married already, I would ask you out. I bet you couldn`t resist a fatty from my own garden.

[styx529]

Jam this with the harmonica a lot! Great!!

[BlakcNinja]

@styx529 thats what I do!

[RENE000666]

love this backtrack stuff !!!

real brings out the best in my soloing !!!!

[johncartelli]

too jazzy for me...

[ginocatone]

un blues da pub ,grande

[steamrollinstan]

Simple, and great to practice with, thank you.

[AnthemicPolemic]

Really fun to jom over this stuff. Better to play over the same energetic and live guitar riff than the most complicated midi piece. People who make half the backing tracks on youtube apparently don't play lead, or do but have no souls.

[silasouren]

see my chanel

[lonewolf1234512345]

does anyone know where's a good donut shop in South Milwaukee?

[metalvampire660]

hey marty, these are the crossroads! what if the devil will come to ask us for a guitar deal, haha!

anyway, great backing track to play some licks on!

[youarethatman]

i enjoy marty's teaching. i learn from him & i'm an ol dog. 62 years old!

[Giich]

Marty for PRESIDENT!!!

[JWBails]

The only problem with this is the lack of bass and drums :)

[Felderoth]

Hmmm... No

[DMASTERKILLER15]

big ralph maccio reference

[AnthemicPolemic]

Why does the video tell us to check out Steve Vai? He fucking sucks.

[edge299]

i just watched your 6:55 min of an over played solo for little wing....and the whole fucking time aside from the chords you stayed in the fucking BOX while improvising and didnt use the whole neck to its FULLEST...so shut the fuck up go practice ur guitar hero 10 hours a day, get recognized as a GUITAR virtuoso, sell records, play for zappa, play in G3 and many more accomplishments, then come back here and tell us steve vai sux..... BOY....put up or shut up

[AnthemicPolemic]

Haha, I stayed in the box insofar as SRV does, as I was pretty much emulating his instrumental. Anyone who takes guitar seriously won't take steve vai seriously, its just self-indulgent wank. I have not played guitar hero, and the blues is not about using every note for the sake of it, but making the most of very little. If you think you can do better with that track then post it. Otherwise keep quiet.

[kanstantsine]

@AnthemicPolemic Agree on line about blues, but steve vai is pretty good guitar player

[AnthemicPolemic]

@kanstantsine I agree that he can do fast technical things with his hands, so in those terms, he is a good player. Aside from technicalities, he has not made a single song that I would want to listen to again, nor does he inspire me to play or feel like other guitarists do.

[esquach]

@AnthemicPolemic Steve Vai may have a self-indulgent style, and you may not like his music, but that doesn't mean he's not a serious guitarist or someone that appreciates his playing can't be a serious guitarist. I would have accepted "Steve Vai is not a blues guitarist" or "anyone that plays guitar hero doesn't take guitar seriously"..

[blehhhhh1]

Just because blues is about getting the most out of very few notes, that doesn't mean all music should be. Its not as though Steve Vai is a failed blues guitarist who, try as he might, can't play slowly for the life of him. He's actually playing a different genre of music. Your comment seems a bit bigoted.

[AnthemicPolemic]

Lol, just watched ur video of 'a minor blues', I dont even know why you bothered posting that comment, you clearly have no idea what the blues is.

[edge299]

@AnthemicPolemic ooo cuz u know what ur doing? an emulation does not make you stand out it just makes you look like a rip off..among the many other COVERS .. i dont have to prove myself to you cuz im not the one that put my foot on a high step YOU DID... like i said b4, do everything he did if not more then come back here and PROVE YOURSELF TO ME..........you fucking rip off

[AnthemicPolemic]

@edge299 @edge299 @edge299 I clearly hit a nerve. I honestly dont care how you feel about my playing, you simply aren't good or mature enough to be affective in such a way. More importantly, music is a welcome relief from adolescent competetive mentalities like your own, so i'm not going to indulge you in a petty argument about nothing; anyone who regards the blues with any respect would feel the same way about Steve Vai as I do. Those covers were only uploaded in response to requests.

[edge299]

@AnthemicPolemic "anyone who regards the blues with any respect would feel the same about steve vai as i do" so im guessing you speak for everyone? cuz ur soo AWEFULLY good and famous and have played with all the BIG SHOTS LIK STEVE VAI DID>? and by the way it took u quite a bit to come back with a comment just like it takes you quite a BIT to come up with a cheesy cover like the rest of THE OTHER COVERS

[AnthemicPolemic]

@edge299 No i'm speaking for people who truly appreciate what the blues is, and respect it. If it really so hard to get your head around the concept that Vai is not a good guitarist from an expressional point of view, where less is more, then you don't understand the blues.

[AnthemicPolemic]

@edge299 And yes it takes me quite a bit, I have a life.

[edge299]

@AnthemicPolemic dude shut up ur done thats it and practice your blues ...and if it takes you a BIT to get back at me CUZ U HAVE A LIFE? hmm then i guess YOU DONT UNDERSTAND THE BLUES ...since you put your life first....so go live your life and talk shit on a high level\skilled guitarist that YOULL NEVER BE IN...

c ya later! :)

[AnthemicPolemic]

@edge299 Still at it? Blocked.

[MrArnoldMagic]

@AnthemicPolemic It's a reference to crossroads methinks. You are right though, he isnt that good.

[bernijoker]

i think tha sounds great, and it's a good track to solo over, so i have done it with my guitar and my bass

[masterstroggo]

It's a good piece to practice to, your timing becomes ever more important without any drums

[fredrikfjell]

sorry, but i think this was reeeeeaaaaalllllllllllllllllll­llyyyyyyyyyy booring: (

[gmlamr]

@fredrikfjell it suppose to be boring until you will spice it up by your fingers through the scale of g or as you you can do

cheers

[fredrikfjell]

@gmlamr yee... but its the same 3 chords played again and again for 4 minutes.: (

[SayYesToPhish003]

@fredrikfjell thats called the blues my friend lol

[fredrikfjell]

@SayYesToPhish003 still think this is a boring backing track

[AnthemicPolemic]

@fredrikfjell Thats because you cant play guitar.

[2009jazzman]

play the dorian scale over this piece may help some :)

[johnscaliajracting]

Marty is the best guitar teacher in the world. Everyone I know watches him, learns from him, and loves him.

[JumpsuitJamboree]

I preffer Paul Gilbert, but Marty is top 10 easily.

[daytonohiofellowship]

wow, I been playing over this a bit,  and I still keep messing up Grrrr!!

[fivepiece]

I must be doing something wrong. I get no audio on this, but it works fine for other YT vids.

What's up with that?

[yeahsee33]

i thought it was a reference to stairway to heaven.

[ugotpimp]

i love Marty's stuff

cool funny guy & engaging teacher who jams

for free!!!

just like a sore penis...you cant beat it.

[superagnitio]

@ugotpimp wtf?

[Gaudentic]

I need more song like this with only guitar to practice with harmonica, you know where?

[skatetrue19]

Haha, nice reference to the Crossroads movie!

[kobac]

i'll take the harp! :P

[voodoochild85858]

i'll take lead axe!!!! hear me cry

[rscopper6789]

sweet thanks
