I like the rolls
Quite some overlap with the 10 Lessons blues challenge, but the roles at the end are worth it.
my second blues course
after the 10 day blues challenge, I quickly worked through this... I love the rolls and turns
good stuff
good info and learning, thanks
Excellent
Loved this course like most courses on the site. But really enjoyed the Int/Adv Rolls at the end! I originally joined PWJ a while ago with no prior knowledge of blues and boogie. That’s certainly changed! 👍😁
My First Blues Improve.
My head felt super blank at first but I'm playing something now. 1hr practice everyday should get me somewhere.
