Randle Currie Solo Lesson

Post by Dimitri LeBel-Alexandre »

Hi guys, since I learned a lot from videos on Youtube, I thought I could share a few things myself. So here's my first lesson. I chose Randle Currie'solo from Brad Paisley's instrumental "Eastwood".

I'm a big fan of Randle and it turns out Brad Paisley and his band will be in town (Montreal) next saturday. This time, I'm not missing it!

I sure hope you like it and let me know what you think.

Nice Dimitri. I learned this one last year as it is one of my favorites too. I play the learned the first phrase up higher on the neck but all.of the same notes you play. Everything else is the same as you play it. Good work!
How are you liking the fess?

Man, I think you're right! Jeez, I've been searching for an easier way to play this so much and it was just there..! From the 10th fret if anybody's interested.

Love the Fessy, sounds great!

Hit the open e 8th string. Hammer on the 10th fret and stay in that position going up laterally. That puts you right at the b c lick for the next phrase.
