J Stearns, who recently subscribed asked, "I'm interested in learning how to be more creative with my playing. I've played for roughly 35 years, but I don't feel as though I've ever really met my true potential. I do play with feeling, rather than just mechanically, but I think I can still take it to another level with improvising and just a better overall knowledge of how to make a song sound fuller. It's a tough question to answer, especially without having heard him play but I've just posted a new 4 minute video sharing a few ideas on the topic. I hope it helps many of you out there who already have a fairly solid foundation in improvisation but are just seeking a few new ideas to get you past your current point. The video is about 4 minutes long (20MB) so please be patient as it loads. You'll find it on the Media page along with other clips and articles. Write a comment
