- David Gilmour
And many other amazing musicians, both known and unknown, who have been a joy to work with.

In this course, I will primarily cover:
- Soul
- Gospel
- Blues
- Rock and Pop Tunes
Blues is my specialty, and everything related to that sound world.
Learning Objectives
I've been given some fantastic tunes to work with, and for each one, I will:
- Break it down
- Explore how to play the arrangements

We will particularly focus on:
- Feel

- Time
These are very important aspects of the music.

Additionally, we'll look at some technical elements within those pieces.
