Usually when I play to a backing track I grasp it right away and come up with several different versions very quickly. This one was a real challenge for me. Not because I was sick with the flu or because my guitar was broken or even because my dog kept bugging me while I was recording. Nope, none of those reasons. The reason this track was a challenge for me was because it is a very difficult track, in my opinion, to play to. It took me into unfamiliar territory which stretched me, challenged and pushed me. I can't say that about every backing track but I can about this one. Is that a good thing? Absolutely!!! In fact I learned a lot from the experience which is what competitions are for...........growth. And in this instance I think I grew about an inch which brings me into the 6 foot territory so now I'm officially eligible to be a model. LOL. Seriously though, improvising to this track has been an a killer experience and I'd like to think its made me a better player. One thing I'm sure of is I'll be learning more about the guitar every day which is why I find it such a fascinating instrument to play. Keep rippin'.
