Got the first lesson up for the Shotgun sessions.
Starts slow with one note. Commit to this 30 day challenge as I will add a lesson each week building upon the previous one.
Check it out!
Hi @William i used to do some straight bar blues and 8 bar songs on my harp, will try and remember ’em to post some for ya!
Anyways here’s a good link for some extra articulation to hammer out the different Bb notes, bisque, side bar, octave, low –
Do the Jerk! Do the Pony! Do the Twine too!
Ride ’em cowboys!! 🙂 An expose on one note prowess! Blow hard or go home!
So this arvo was practicing my Shotgun single note articulation and stuff being around the back yard when a coupla ‘roos came by to listen, i managed to get a photo capture over the crook of the sax but can’t cut and paste to to download it here; i saw an old post by @BrotherCavefish and @Jeff on how to post pix but geez i can’t Shuffle it onto an http server … Sings Sonny Boy Williamson II, “I don’t know” C 3rd.
Ok, the second and third note is up and running. The 6 and the 5, so we have the 1, the 6, and the 5 to work with. Two more notes and we have a pentatonic. We’er moving on
Well I’ve been blowing the 6th note, and the 5th note. and the one note. Using the octave key to add to the mix. Those notes, the 1st. the 6th, the 5th, and what ever comes next can be blown using the octave key as long as I blow those notes. So I think I’m making progress. Thanks Johnny
