Solo 2 Bar 16

[Sage]

Has anyone else had a problem playing bar 16 in Solo 2, mainly in 16th notes? I'm starting to wonder if the TAB for this measure is correct.

Incidentally, in my Slow Blues Supplement pack the solos on the audio CD don't feature in the same sequence as in the book:

Solo 1 - Track 3
Solo 2 - Track 4
Solo 3 - Track 5
Solo 4 - Track 8
Solo 5 - Track 6
Solo 6 - Track 7

Having worked on this measure and paid more attention to the video, I think the TAB is OK, but as it's harder to distinguish the sound of one note from another on the the faster runs and get the phrasing right, what I play still doesn't sound like what I hear on the video/CD. Keep practicing...

Downloaded the free version of Riffmaster Pro. Think I can nail this now.

Good idea Sage.  I'm using Transcribe! (for MAC) and I found it great for slowing down the piece you are working on.  This allows you to clearly hear the notes being played and also helps to get the articulation correct.  I use it to practice as well by slowing down the rhythm only tracks and then gradually speeding them up as I improve.
