Hello everyone, My name is Rich and I bought myself this subscription for my xmas present.  I'm from Chicago originally and played in many rock/blues bands during 90s before moving to St. Louis.  I have not played for past 15 years much due to life events but back at it now with much passion and excitement.  The Stout Blues video I came across on youtube brought me here.  It is the perfect sample I found that connects where I was to where I want to get.  I'm very focused on analyzing Robert's choice of notes over the chord changes and turnarounds.  In the past I think I got by on more of a trick bag and didn't have a good foundation for changing the soloing based on chord changes.  Also, learning already with Stout blues how pauses/rests and rhythmic variation add a lot of flavor to the sound.  Loving it so far.  Glad to be here!  -Rich

Hey welcome Rich!

Thanks for joining. Stout Blues is probably the most sophisticated solo course I've done so far. I think there is a lot that can be learned from it. The deeper analysis video should be helpful, I'm hoping. 

You probably want to check this one out too -  https://www.masterguitaracademy.com/course/12-bar-blues-solo-advanced/

Do share recordings and clips if you can - it's a great way to get feedback from both myself and the community.

The Student Focus videos are a must-do task for all members!
