In podcast 37 I want to show you a cool Jimi Hendrix Blues guitar lick that he used in a song called “Voodoo Chile”. It’s a great moody lick that has tons of emotion and character in it.

John, I am impressed with the first two free lessons you have sent my email address. I am interested in your course, but have reservations. I have invested in a couple of other courses that taught licks and rythms but never really addressed articulation or when certain lick should be played in context. I don’t want to spend more money on another batch of licks. I want to learn how to articulate licks and how to apply them to a blues groove. It seems I can learn the mechanical part of licks, but they never sound like they should when I play them. For example, the second part of the Jimi Hendrix, podcast #37, I can play the notes but they don’t sound right. Does your course help with issues such as these? Does your course, for example, lay down a groove and say “This particular lick will fit with this groove”? Your response would be appreciated.

Thanks a lot. The Blues Course covers the tools I think are needed to play great sounding blues guitar. Vibrato, phrasing and when to play what note using intervals are also covered, which may be what you need. I do show licks and solos in the lessons cause to me if you can’t apply the stuff to something tangible, it has little effect when you learn it. I can’t say for certain that you will absolutely love the course. Others have purchased it and have really gotten some benefit out of it. Everybody learns different so all I can tell you that if you don’t like it, then you can have a refund. Hope that helps.
Happy Holidays!
