John’s Notes,
I composed this 1 minute ‘solo’ for a professional ‘Soul’ singer
who attends guitar lessons. She wanted a solo for a song she
had written.
Her Band is playing a simple E Maj & F#m chord progression
throughout so I used the Pentatonic E Maj scale positions 1
and 2.
Nothing too demanding here. Start off subdued to phrase 5,
building in intensity into the chorus. The chorus ‘double stops’
(phrases 10 - 13) need to have a percussive feel. Practice the
bends making sure to bend to the correct pitch as notated.
