Saw this on twitter and thought it needed passing on to our guitarist Spillers. @WillKimbrough is quite a player and is sharing his knowledge with a Lick of the Day video series. (He’s on tour in the UK until Feb 16)

Hmmm…I’m afraid this comes across, to me, more as a plug for the chaps on-screen, tinny. If you already play a guitar you’ve probably messed around with the low drone idea for a few hours/days/weeks (and, if you’re my age, you probably started off doing that when you tried to play Paint It Black). But if you’re a novice, it doesn’t really explain much about the scales that you can use (apart from naming a couple).
But thanks for the thought….
Out of my area of expertise. The one above is the first in a series and I didn’t watch it. I just wanted to link to the beginning of the series.
The one I saw from today’s twitter link seem fairly good. It was just him explaining a lick he’d written.
Hopefully it’ll be of use to someone, anyway.
The song it plays out with would’ve done for this week’s RR:
You know that life,
It’s a merry-go-round, it’s a ride.
It speeds up and slows down and it’s free.
But you only get to ride it once
Oh well.
Thanks, tinny – but I’m one of Chris’ novices so it didn’t do a lot for me. (I have only just discovered that Refugee is in a chromatic-minor scale with a minor tonic. But that doesn’t mean I can play it.) Plus I was offended by the “sorry, ladies” caption.
