Lots of varied techniques throughout for variety of sound
Thanks for listening
I was particularly intrigued by your 'middle of the board' chords. I've seen you describe various things on Bob's Zoom calls (polychords, drumming etc.), but I don't recall that technique (I've not seen all the videos).
If I'm seeing it correctly I think the very first chord you hold (around 0:19) is something like Bb F bB (on strings 8, 6 & 5)?
Then you move it along a couple of frets to become (I think) C G C, then you keep the bass side C, shifting the melody fingers a string to & C F, then again to F & Bb, then back, and so on.
I may have that slightly wrong, but wow, just thinking about the general concept is so inspiring (even though utterly beyond my total beginner level, for the present!).
If that's in your book I've not found it yet. A thing I like about your book is the way it feels very much "here's a bunch of ideas, see what you can make of them" (I hope you don't mind that description).
What a machine for music Emmett gave us. What use you make of that machine. Thank you for leading & giving us
shoulders to climb on.
