I want to thank you so much for your advice.
Your emphasis on melody first is something that I overlooked for years.
Songs like this help.
I would even say that I should learn backup after melody. THEN learn a lead break.
It sure helps me. It also helps me to play with others.
Also thanks for the left hand fingering. A tiny thing. But VERY important.
Thanks also for the scale and left hand exercises.
Great Stuff!!!
