I’ve been working on a project for quite some time now called “Riff Axelerator”. The project is the the brainchild of Jason Vearing who I’ve know for probably over a decade. Jason’s brilliant idea was to present licks in standard notation, tablature and audio (all linked) that the user can slow down or speed up […]

Here’s an outstanding lesson in building excitement in a solo. Thank’s again Derek Trucks for another vocal, soaring solo that ratchets up the tension continuously and gracefully. Even Billy Gibbons thinks he’s on fire!

I’m currently in the proccess of ripping my CD collection and discovered this hidden track on one of our old band CDs. I’d completely forgotten about it and thought it was amusing enough to incude here. It was from back when we were still calling ourselves BIMA.
