Re: Strum Pattern - blues

thanks

I will try to post some more patterns (including some more recent songs). I hope that people reading these threads will pitch in with ideas and recollections of their own

strumming patterns are generally what people play when they want to capture the essence of song on a single guitar or just to bash out a tune  for fun. The original recording don't give much clue to an appropriate accompaniment so I hope that people will tell us how they play their favorite songs

Re: Strum Pattern - blues

yup, so some hopeful begginner like me can improve or better yet learn.
im wiating for those songs johncross.. lol.
