        Johnny, know it’s a bit specific but any chance of a video lesson on how to play Money or Us and Them? I can play the sax intro on Wearing the Inside Out 🙂 it’s a bit easier than those!

          When you say you practice scales and chords going up in 1, 3, 5, 7 etc. do you mean you practice those notes within the scales like arpeggios or do you mean you are harmonizing the scale degrees and playing the relative scale for each of those degrees?

            Thanks Johnny,

            I kinda get how it’s supposed to sound cause I’ve been a guitarist for 18 years so I can hear things quite well musically. I will get the basic blues excercise down in Bb and then work on the other keys before moving on to the next excercise. When you are playing this are you counting the intervals i.e I, bIII, V, bVII to get it ingrained? This what I’m struggling with, on guitar it’s easier cause the intervals always hold the same shape on the fretboard but with the different fingerings for each key on sax you can’t apply that same strategy.

            I’m getting the hang of growling now after playing along with the basic blues exercise, I could never do it before but it seems to be coming to me more naturally now 🙂 I think your facial expressions kind of sum up the way you have to feel when doing the growl!
