@chuckp I believe you are observant and right. But if it sounds good it is good! It shows the diversity of the blues shuffle and ways to make it your own.

Hey @Braden Nice to see a post encouraging others to post their songs. And a very good Canadian rendition. I wish I could play a harmonica like you do. Love it.

Good to hear your version. Not as many people are posting much lately and you are being a good encouragement. Your work on the instrumental break shows. I was listening with headphones and could hear the subtle chord variations adding texture to the song. Nice job.
-
Welcome and the others are right on. My only addition is try not to compare yourself with others including yourself (or what you think yourself should be). Comparative thinking is where fun goes to die.

Bad boy. Bad BOY. Whatcha gonna do when they come for you!

What fun! Liked the song, the lighting, the performance, the vibe. My woman does Face Time not “tick tick”. Thanks for sharing.
I thought at first listening you played on a resonator but I zoomed in and it was acoustic. (Somebody likes Living magazine).

“I am older than I once was but younger than I’ll be. That’s not unusual.” Paul Simon lyrics. The Boxer bonus verse.

Thanks for posting. We haven’t had that many new TAC members posting songs lately and the long time TAC folks like yourself have been quiet too. I need to commit to post something this October. One doesn’t post playing to show off. One posts to share the love of your music and grow in the process of recording and create benchmarks. Thanks again.

Congratulations. Progress is such a good feeling.

Caveat: I’m not responding as an expert but as a learner or interpreter. I went to FBW and revisited that lesson. It worked for me using the C shaped CAGED pattern. Tony is playing a C Dm G(7 but I just say G ish) progression. So I play a C skip E skip G set of notes. Then a D skip F skip A set of notes. Then a G skip B skip D set of notes.
Now the scale shows how to do the same process for all the other notes in the C major scale, but that is for your back pocket learning and doesn’t go with the demonstrated chord progression.
At least that is my hypothesis and I hope it helps.

I think the forum is going well, but we have missed you and it’s better now that you are back. On the side I’ve been working on flat picking some fiddle tunes and delving deeper in to CAGED system.

I originally learned a standard G as you described but since with TAC , the “Folk G” has become just a familiar. Both are good and I use whichever sounds good or whichever sets my fingers up for the next chord or chord variation better. And yes your change as you described would be a Cmaj7 (you added a B to the CEG or the 7 to the 1-3-5 with a C root).

Try this trick I learned from @Loraine
Go to my profile. On my profile go to my favorites. Find the Old Man lesson title such as Wither Away. Click on the link and it will take you to the lesson through my profile.

Yes. I remembered when that happened. Seems like it was over an Eagle cover. Your situation prompted me to keep a backup of anything I posted. There is a social wrong with their policy.
