Have been watching a pile of Harris’s student’s. TILFBH specifically gells with me, and so I’ve watched and re-watched the first few https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ebepc8lYrKs without an instrument, or with an instrument but not a metronome, just kinda singing or playing along as I watch, trying to hear the secondary dominant (the C#), and the Major stuff and so on

Things I've Learned From Barry Harris Episode 1 Scales on the Blueshttps://www.skool.com/chris-parks-tilf-barry-harris https://www.skool.com/chris-parks-tilf-barry-harrisThis is the first in several episodes discussing the t...YouTube

today I felt ready to pickup a guitar and dig out my metronome for the first exercise here, the blues

my recall for the scales is fine even in every other common CAGED position

the tempo is fine

playing with a metronome clackin’ on the 2s and 4s is brutal! I feel like someone trying to jump rope just slamming themself in the leg.

metronome: clack clack clack clack clack…

me, trying as hard as I can: clack THREE clack ONE clack THREE clack TWO clack FOUR clack FUCK

metronome: clack clack clack clack clack…

if I manage to come in on a correct one I’m fine and it feels fine
