Marty BLIM-1 Before & After

Community Recordings Blues Immersion (BLIM) Before & After
1

Hi BLIMMERs! Prior to this course, I had zero experience playing solos. I was strictly a ‘cowboy chords’ player. I have no before video. I was slow to pick up on the material. In particular, I found bending to be super challenging (& painful). I was in cancer treatment during the course so that didn’t help. Glad to report that I’m now feeling good and practicing daily. I’ve been learning my licks and medleys and starting to do some improvisation. IT’S SO MUCH FUN!!! Here’s a small after video of my position 2 medley:

Nice Martin

That was super smooth. I like the 5 to 10 slide resolving on 8, yours was cool. The bends sound great also. Nice to see your videos. :call_me_hand:t2::call_me_hand:t2:

Your enjoyment of the piece was obvious in the musicality of the performance. Well played.

Fantastic Martin. From not playing lead to that is impressive. Best of all, you clearly look like you are having fun and you are feeling well.
