Made me remember the challenge ?

I'm pretty much stuck between the strum daddy and campfire wizard

Haha.. yeh.. me too. Although i skimp on the embelishments.

Coltrane changes... bring it dweeb ? priceless

    RCVN Bwahaha, funnnnyyy! :Nice find! ?

    At best, I'm a wannabe College Hopeful. THough I reckon that finger twister is somewhere between Mid level Maestro and Jazz Lord (P.s Jazz Lord = Elton, also funniest title of the lot!)

      Mmmm... might enter.

        PeteM Heya Pete, would be great to have you enter again!

            It's all about time V8... very busy teaching guitar and vocals to my 32 kids, writing and arranging songs for my two bands SAGE and Misty Mountain Band and gigging with them. A seriously full life for a 72 year old. I love it! I'll see what I can do with the competition.

              PeteM Whoa...send me what you have for breakfast, incredible! Keep it rockin' Pete!

                  Can I ask question here regarding the chords and how to press the etc.... ?

                    Please explain to me how this works:

                    How do I press these Chords?

                    How do I apply them?

                    When do I use the "inversion" ?

                    Nevermind. I found this:

                    Are we supposed to combine #1 & #2?

                    The 3 major chords into the minor C 12 bar jazz which I am currently learning at 30 bpm? ?

                      RodneyVikens Are we supposed to combine #1 & #2?

                      It was meant as a either or scenario - though #2 was meant as a 'joke' for @domhatch who wanted something 'hectic'...so I dug out the 'finger twister' for him.

                      Honestly didn't think anyone was reaallly gonna attempt it. FWIW, a few brave souls are trying it - though I'm not sure how much they like me at the moment. ?

                        V8 and here I was preparing 6 hours a day, waking up at 3 in the morning. ?

                            RodneyVikens Grin, I have tried learning this finger twister twice before - 3am is cruel and unusual punishment - beyond some of these inversions (I hate the first chord of bar 9 - the Ab7 inversion).

                            But then again, I'm from Cpt, so if it's before 10am it's far too early. If it's not wednesday I ain't interested. If it is wednesday, I'm far too busy. ?

                              5 days later

                              It is not possible to move the end date a week later? Work got hell busy this week, but I will try record something tomorrow..... Eish... Might not make it.

                                V8 I found some free time tonight to do a recording. Week is going to be crazy so here goes. I am not sure how to record or master so it sounds good or "fuller". Haven't done any EQ on it. If someone would like the individual tracks to properly mix let me know. =) Sorry but I didn't do the 12-bar jazz chords, it's above my skill level for now but I will keep on practicing.
