I guess this isn't too bad. I found this to be a challenging song with tricky timing and sliding those partial chord forms around took some practice too.

Fine job with that Jack, as I am also working on this I fully appreciate how well you are playing those nasty chords!! My problem is that I am not relaxed enough and my fretting hand cramps up and then pretty much has a mind all of its own  |

Sounding very good, Jack. Man, I need to revamp some of these rhythm studies!

Thanks guys, glad you liked that! Mick, yeah this one is a challenge in quite a few different ways  It's relaxed but at the same time it's kind of energetic; I couldn't sink into that behind-the-beat thing like on the previous few songs. And then all those slides with a different fingering than you'd normally use because you've got to fret the whole chord afterwards. Then you've got those triplets where the first note is a rest just to further complicate things  |

That was really good! I thoroughly enjoyed that - especially how you made it look so easy...

That was top notch as usual, I need to get more into my rythmn book book starting to see the light at the end of the BYCU tunnel, so will keep focusing on that.

Sounds good, Jack. Nice and smooth. You are developing a nice touch with your right hand. I'm now finding out just how difficult rhythm can be with "Jumpin' Blues." |

Thanks guys, I appreciate it! That rhythm book is great, all sorts of really challenging stuff in there that makes you pay close attention to upbeats and downbeats etc. Though I'm happy to say the next song seems fairly easy - maybe I'll do a solo for it (though it will probably be my usual thing where I noodle around for a while and never get anything accomplished lol).
