My "All Your Love" attempt at using my looper
I've been trying to put the rhythm and lead parts together for this lesson using my loop pedal (Boss RC-5). I haven't been able to manage the transition between parts without a pause yet. As usual, it's all harder than I thought it would be, but I'm working on it. Here's where I am so far.

I Got You guitar part attempt
One of the local players around town was showing me how he played I Got You (I Feel Good) by James Brown in his band (no horn section). Essentially, he was doubling the bass line and also imitating the horns at times. Here's a minute of me attempting what he showed me. I think I'd call it a downtown shuffle... or what would you call it?

‘All Your Love’ intro off The Beano Album
Ben’s lesson last week. I’ll miss this week due to family stuff, but I really liked the lesson, and that Mayall/Clapton album is the real deal. So here’s a rough first try to a drum track. Not a feedback submission because there’s not that much to it, but if anybody else is trying this, let me know how it’s going and if this sounds on the right track?

Feedback. Improv. Change of tempo. Slow and melodic, then rock lead solo.
Dave Matthews Band Watchtower backing track. Slow tempo then changes up. Nice to play over. Trying for melodic ideas then more dynamism in the fast section. Any tips welcome. Trying to vary phrasing a bit. Not all eighth notes. Conscious of losing the time a little bit when trying fast picking….but maybe get away with it?
