Roger you are spot on I have missed so many recordings by folk since the one per month limit came in so good that you came back to find this one. Glad you liked the Steady Thumb, its similar to the David Hamburger pieces I’ve been doing. The 2nd ? As I said to James I am a bit like you but as you say its good for technical development, with those skills being transferable. So ay the end of the day worth investing some time in. Again thanks for listening. 
We all have enough of those days. Better that than letting it get to 712 take Wednesday though …
So you and @roger_holland aren’t too fond of the Walking Easy Blues, as a piece, eh? I actually find it to be a super fun one to play! And definitely easier than STB with that one particularly fiddly bit. Although there are a couple of songs out there with that walking bass kind of thing that I always think ‘too much’. I can’t think of one of them right now unfortunately. Anyway, my ‘take’ would be that you’re doing fine with this one, it just sounds to me like you’re ready to be done with it so you’ll just play it to get it over with. And nothing wrong with that IMHO!!
Looking forward to the next one, acoustic or electric. 
Hi Mari, @Mari63
I’m glad you called me because I now absolutely have to make a nuance after trying it again a few times this afternoon, because (phew, that took some time to start up again) I remembered the video a bit, which I haven’t seen for years. and I remembered Justin’s words about a Stevie Ray Vaughan style by smothering the bottom 2 strings every time ( I will need to try that with a lot of distortion later 
), this is still quite difficult for me now, but I can certainly hear the beauty of it now … I see new opportunities for me with this number …
Greetings ,
And ps: Toby
What a ridiculously long title for this topic 
,but no one overlooks it now ouch my back
@TheMadman_tobyjenner @roger_holland @Mari63 look what a guy named Stevie did with the Walking Easy Blue. We all have to start some where, it’s where you take it from here that counts.
Yes, that’s what was in my head and I was referring to 
And that solo is easy…that rhythm guitar kills me 
Greetings
Yes that guy named Stevie could sure play!!!
Closest I will ever come to SRV is my wearing my Van Zant hat !!
Teasing us with a still, I just plugged in my headphones!
Haha, I need to drop this into the BLIM Record Yourself thread in the morning first, before Justin checks in. My weekend post got buried under a shed load of posts and he never back tracked to those two recordings. Ironic as 60% of those post were my comments on other Blimmer’s recordings. So you’ll get to see it twice Paul, as I will drop it in here, as part of my Blues Saga(Chapters) and try and get another acoustic session done in the morning.
The upside is I am finally getting over my severe RBS stumbles, so all is good at MMS at the moment.
Hey Toby, I much enjoyed all the 4 recordings…those two voicings pieces look anything but easy! I don’t understand much about Blues but I can well say you seem to be more than ready to immerse with Justin and all this cheerful crew into the Blue seas of Blues 
Have fun!
Haha I was thinking that madman is trying to break the record of number of AVoYPs posted in 24 hours
Edit:
And before Rogier checks in
Well played, Toby!
I watched all the videos.
Acoustic ones are especially good 
I would have to spend a month learning fingerstyle

OK folks its time to bring this Chapter to a close with one last post.
It is not the Acoustic Blues I said I would post, as I had a mare of a morning with it. Could not get a clean run and ended up getting tense and very frustrated 
So I decided that, having been on a bit of a roll, it was time to quit while I was ahead. I’ll keep working on it and I plan to learn the next one from the Hamburger Essentials, so watch this space.
So, as always planned, I’m finishing off with the “this is where I am now” recording, that Justin asked all the BLIM course members to do. So this has been a trimmed & cut from the post in the suburbs. For some reason I was pretty tense when playing this, compared to the other two “electric” blues I shared.
Got this down after half a dozen takes. the lasts having less errors and one missed lick, clock the face. Felt a bit stiff compared with the two recorded earlier but it was good enough to say this is where I am right now.
As per AVOYP feedback welcome. RBS & nerves played a part, all felt a little wooden.
The next Blues Chapter will be in a couple months, as there will be some recording requirements throughout the course. So I will happily share with the folks here in the big city.
PMT Live calls at the top of the hour, so I’ll respond to folks who’ve replied recently later.
Take care folks.

This post is a photo only, I don’t see video/audio Toby.
I’m glad to hear this, I will look forward to your next posts, and any that other BLIM folk share that I can find!
Thank you for pointing that out, now fixed. And yes hopefully other JGC regulars will share their BLIM recordings as well. Maybe some of the new BLIM folks as well, as we are encouraging them to look outside of their bubble.
Love it, Toby, somewhere in the middle of the first half I said out loud ‘ooo I like that!’ Very nicely played. I really liked the theme building, and the repetition, and I love the slow bends.
That would be nice to hear for sure!
Thanks for listening Mari and for the feedback. Some of those licks I would normally play much faster but I was trying to be careful, maybe a little too careful. Lets see how things improve in the months to come. 
Thanks for that Silvia to be honest, I doubt if the acoustic pieces are that different from of the songs you have shared. Technique is pretty much the same, just the feel and timing is a little different.
