Hey i have a question i play ok in simple bass (c-g)-(c-a) but if i begin try like u show, i can not synhronize both hands(if falls out of rythm)

[LordOllieV]

Whenever you learn any left hand pattern, especially in boogie woogie, it MUST be absolutely solid. If it helps, play along to a drum track or a recording of a song. Only when you can easily change to the IV or V (try whilst talking to someone else, or picking your nose, whatever...) put the right hand on top.

And don't strain yourself!

NEW LESSONS COMING. Requests?

Hey Ollie, These lessons are really helpful. Thanks for taking the time. Best wishes and keep up the good work; I appreciate your help.

Very helpful~ and I've learned being on stage, that sometimes it is better to play that left hand an octave higher like he is doing here....some songs...not all..but some..do interfere with the bass player's bass line..sounds a bit "cluttered"..so I tend to play an octave higher at times. You just have to sort of hear it and know.So, if you're on stage and you hear that kind of "messy" sound..try an octave higher on your left hand.
