Nice. That had more of a country swing feel to it than the normal one, but I liked it even better I think. Way to make it your own. Also, great job at keeping such good time without a metronome or backing track. Looking forward to hearing more from you, don't be a stranger.

Very, very nice Godli.  I agree with Spencer.  That was a great rockabilly tone you gave it.

Well done Godlistrom... you obviously have all the notes down... Perhaps you might like to consider what I said about Big Sugar Hopkins' (BSH) version of this one... I think this is one blues which actually sounds better with the 'swing' minimized or eliminated altogether!

But as I also said, it is also up to you to play it how you feel it! Just consider the difference, is all I'm saying...

Anyway, you've certainly earned one of these:

As with the lesson itself, as presented, it is done without the swing but both Phillipe's & BSH's version shows what can be done with single note bass patterns.So whilst you may continue on to get the "straight"  feel, you don't ever want to lose the skill to play the same thing with a swing feel - it is definitely another arrow in your quiver   [smiley=thumbsup.gif]

okay, its my ear. tell me. I've listened to this numerous times now and am I hearing right that in the first play through, did you accidentally double time the picking at part of a bar or is it just me?

I actually liked it. I think this was the effect that got you the comment about a sort of coutry/rockbilly sound.  :)
