Crossroads (Cream ish version)

That was really really good Phil. Just a wonderful performance.

Hey Phil,

First thing I did after listening to this was to go back to the start for another treat.

Terrific playing mate, even moreso considering you combined the 3 elements of the original/Mayer/improv.
The rhythm, tone, articulation, clarity, fluidity; all just so tight.

Two things that really stood out for me though, apart from the great peformance?

  1. Just how relaxed you looked Phil; in your picking hand, your fretting hand, your overall posture. Very impressive man, and shows you’ve got a fair whack of mastery over what you’re doing. As you know , this is not an easy song rhythmically, in parts, and you nailed it, as if you were casually sketching a drawing on your back verandah.

  2. The economy of movement in your picking hand. From what I can see, you’re not wasting a single millimeter on unnecessary movement. And at 100+ bpm 16th notes flyin around the fretboard, your great accuracy and synchronisation just shines through here in spades.

You’ve taken it up a notch here my friend.

Cheers, Shane

@MikeSebastianP @Avalon426 @Eddie_09 @sclay Thanks for the listens folks!

@Avalon426 @sclay Sloppy playing from 2:42 onwards that makes me wince :rofl: I knew I was doing it, but since I’ve been working on this for 3 months since the start of BLIM, I thought I’d publish it anyway and do something else for a change.
