8 Startingwith simpler riffs to get you started and gradually getting studying with Joe Filisko I've learnt that most of the earlier players tongue-blocked most of the time. However, to make it easier, I've decided to ignore thisgenerally, but you should try the tongue-block style as well. Use your tongue tocover a couple of holes to the left of the notes I've given you and it should work out! The players on which we have based these riffs are chosen haphazardly from mypersonal music collection so should not be taken as exclusively the best players -although they are all exceptional in my opinion.
9 We also ran out of space on the CDso couldn't use riffs in the style of Paul Lamb, Kim Wilson, Sugar blue , John Popper,Paul Jones, Lee Sankey, Johnny Mars, Steve Baker and a bunch of other inspirationalplayers. Maybe on the next riffs album!My playing - (although brilliant!) - is no match for the source players whose stylesI've attempted, so my best advice is to encourage you, after enjoying this CD, to goback to the original players and to study them directly. It is much harder of course -what we have we have tried to do here is to present the same information for youin a half digested form - almost regurgitated, and fed from beak to open screechingbeak.
10 Imagine us like a Mummy or Daddy bird feeding you, our fat and starvinglittle chicks!6101 Blues riffs vol 6 download 10/9/09 09:32 Page 6 INTRODUCTIONMost riffs here are in second position or 'crossharp'. For those who don't know, this refers to the 'flavour' or mood given to your musicthrough your deliberate choice of notes. Second position gives a great bluesy feeland is based around the low draw chord a G chord when you are using a Charp. That s holes 1 - 4 you include hole 5 it becomes a G7 chord which is PERFECT for Blues .
