https://marcosgerente.com.br/ed1gjlc9zw For us blues guitar fans, live blues performances take us through a wild ride of emotions from quiet and introspective to raw and painful through powerful and explosive… no other type of music walks you through a storyline in music as well as lyric each time you listen.
go to link Rarely do you see all of this played out in one blues guitar song…that’s why I thought I would post this performance by Matt Schofield taken from the Thunder Bay Blues Festival from just a few weeks ago. Notice how he begins with melodic soft blues runs and builds to at least two explosive string bending sessions before bridging back into the main melody. A Fender Strat man, Schofield puts on a clinic for any aspiring blues guitar player, either beginner or advanced…watch closely:

Buy Quality Valium It seems like a few months ago, but there have been very few times I have been blown away by music since then. In fact, I would have to say I listen much more today to all of the original bluesmen – thanks to Stevie for opening my eyes to all of these guys.

https://luisfernandocastro.com/4ce78c5h To all of those who were close to Stevie Ray, his family, friends and loved ones who now carry the burden of sharing the one they love with an adoring public – stay strong and you have managed his legacy well.
