This is excellent! I’m personally struggling with Pattern #3. I understand high E string should be muted, probably with the pinky but when strumming dead strings, I still hear the high E ringing.
Great lesson. All the tasty bits you need to Funk it Up in a short, concise video. Love it! Funk ain't that complicated, but tricky to execute properly. Great job on breaking down the progressions. Thanks a lot for the video.
@@TastyGuitarcom No question, now, I need to work on right hand technique more than anything..I am not loose or fluid enough .. Pick hangs up on strings and digs in and it makes playing this style slow and not fluid and prevents building up any kind of speed..back to the woodshed !!!! Shally
Just discovered this lesson, I love it! Gotta learn this! Question; can you tell me where the backing track is from, I’d really like to play along to it once I have it dialled in. Great work Rick 👍
thanks Peter, members of Tasty Guitar can practice to the backing track synced up to the TAB, slow down, loop etc, as part of the lesson in the site, learn more at tastyguitar.com/membership OR this track is basically "Aint no stopping us now" with the vocals removed. You can buy it for $2.99 at karaokeversion.com
Great licks! 3 and 4 remind me that I don't get everything I can out of my rhythms. There's always a way to spice things up. Do you make the backing tracks?
Typically in chord fragments you can drop the root and/or the 5th of the chord and still retain the character of the chord, and the bass note will give it context. If the bass player is on C it will sound like c major, bass hanging on A it will sound like Am7. Never look at a shape and think it's only 1 thing. I could call this 12 different things just by changing the context with the bass note.
