    When your an old man like me, you don’t have much chance of finding friends to jam with. This is the next best thing! Really helps me to learn to improvise!

    I was lucky and dumb enough to get called onstage for a blues jam at a bar. I'm a rythym guy and barely know the fundamentals... But I do know them. Anyway. Dude who calls me on stage was James browns guitar player. We're mutual aquantances. He hands me a guitar and yells "A... GO!!!!". Thank God I knew what that meant... It's blues in A, and your about to take a solo mofo! I pulled it off, but still come back to these lessons to sharpen my skills

      Man I am with you 100% on that one.
      I knew about it but never tried it.
      Just recently I put a slow blues track in key of A on and looked up what key to play in which I also just found that tells what key harp to use in the key of whatever and man my wife came in the room and said she thought it was the video and not me playing.
      I have a history of on and off playing since I was 14. .
      I am now 68 but was never even near happy with my playing always just improvising in my mind the tune to play .
      Not much of a variety.
      Now I have moved miles up on the playing of this magnificent instrument .
      further than I had ever imagined.
      👍👍👍🙂
