Bye Bye Blackbird - Guitar solo

Hmmm, I didn't make too many mistakes. The one at the start of the oectaves bit was a bit nasty. Guess that'll teach me for trying to sound like Wes Montgomery...

Good thing yr not an English teacher- spelling 'practicing" like that!

[largepiece]

I am actually, lol! I don't teach music. Why vary a verb and adjective by only one letter? Meh, I use bought and brought interchangeably as well.

[willyhoy]

It's a good clip, "large-piece", sits well with the other versions on YouTube. I thought practice was a noun not an adjective?

[largepiece]

That's the problem! I can never remember which is witch! Thanks for the comment too, I think? I'm just not entirely sure if it's a complement... :)

[willyhoy]

Well, I'm pleased that I was able to add something to the conversation...

[largepiece]

Nice work. Actually, we're the only two in this conversation. So you haven't just contributed to it, you have in fact, created it! :)

[willyhoy]

:)lol

Lol. Yes, I should have seen that one coming willyhoy.

I really ought to credit this solo to Doug Munro. Not that he knows me, but lots of the lines in my solo come from his ace instructional book, Jazz to Bebop. Thanks Mr Munro. You're a legend!

Not to mention, Owen, Ryan, Waled, Maddison, Ben, Matthew and Elliot, who are a pretty darned great bunch of people to play music with.

I've now got an arch-top guitar, which is getting me even more amped to keep practicing.
