Hi Arthur, Is the order of your list of courses on your site the optimal order to do them, or do you advice me an other order? I have no experience in playing boogie.
As for the order of courses concerning the eight licks I found it most helpful to master Lick #1 Part II Variation 4 (using the 7th) before attempting Lick #3 Part II Variation 3. I found the latter mentioned lick to be difficult because this was the first time triplets were involved in the pickup notes leading to the chord change. If you’re too fast or slow with these triplet pick up notes it makes for a rough transition between the I , IV and V chord.
So far I’ve spent 6 days x 4hrs a day attempting to match that Lick #3 variation with the 13 left hand bass patterns that I’m using for practice. Only 9 of them are smooth so far with that Lick #3 variation. I found that lick to be the first truly difficult test of triplet skill, for me at least.
