- Here's the next episode of Chordplay with The Chords of Robin Trower.
This lesson completes the two-part series of Robin Trower-focused lessons that I put together today and this lesson features a number of his slick Hendrix-approved blues-rock rhythm playing and gritty guitar style, not to mention a number of interesting chord voicings and progressions throughout the lesson.
This episode features numerous examples from Trower's coveted 'Bridge Of Sighs' album, which really is a gold mine of great riffs, licks, and solos in that groovy 1970s setting, not to mention completely awash with vintage fuzz, wah, Univibe, and modulation effects. Trower really is a master at not only emotive phrasing and blues-based expression but he's relentless with his signature swirl of various effects and screaming guitar tones.
A few of the songs featured in this lesson include Day Of The Eagle, Bridge Of Sighs, Daydream, About To Begin, and many more. There should be something for everyone, from full-on blues-rock grit to somber dreamy chord-work, and Hendrix-inspired melodic double-stop action that brings varied soul and R&B influences to the surface - needless to say, there's a lot going on in this lesson and you'll surely catch something new or learn a few new tricks to add to your stash of riffs and chord-based ideas.
Give this episode a view, leave some comments and feedback, and please subscribe to Late Night Lessons - THANK YOU!
Gotta love Robin...no cork sniffing... Just pedal to the metal blues rock an roll...god bless him real good...
Robin Trower's Winterland Concert is really worth listening to . Excellent guitar playing . Jimmy Dewar on bass and vocals . 1975 .
I've always loved Trower. He never over plays. His tone and phrasing are exceptional
I feel a kinship with Trower fans. He is freaking awesome! Thanks for the video!
Bridge of Sighs will always be timeless and forever....Cold wind blows the gods look down in anger on this poor child....
POOR child. Po' child?
On this poor child.

Crush Everything
Yep my bad spellcheck...
Daydream was actually a song he wrote for and dedicated to "The Man" Jimi Hendrix. I was 15 when Jimi died and 18 when Robin showed up as Jimi's heir apparent, and boy were we all grateful at the time! Robin filled a huge hole in the world at that time. I was living in Los Angeles at that time and Robin did a radio concert from a local recording studio. Me and my best friend raced to the studio and knocked on the back door. The security guard let us in. A few years later, I was managing and engineering for a Marin County band that was asked to open for Robin at The Stone nightclub in San Francisco. Neal Schon and Clarence Clemons, among other greats who showed up to watch that show. For the next couple of years, the band I was working with was asked to open for Robin. Those were the days. Living in Marin County opened me to meeting rock stars constantly and running into them again and again. Carlos Santana. Gregg Rollie. Sammy Hagar. Huey Lewis. Jerry Garcia. I used to work right next to the Grateful Dead's warehouse where they rehearsed and kept their equipment, and I also used to rehearse in a place called Hun Sound where I ran into Van Morrison, Roseann Carter Cash, and Sammy when he was doing the Red Rocker thing. He'd leave the doors open and invite us in to watch him rehearse when we were taking a break. Marin County in the 70s and 80s . . . Man oh man!!! I used to own two original uni vibes. I sold one to Lee Michaels (for $40) and shortly after that the other one was stolen along with a lot of my other equipment, including 2 original Fuzz Face pedals and a black Guild 512 acoustic 12-string. Anyway, thanks for doing Daydream. Brought back a lot of great memories. It's my favorite of his many great songs. Now, how 'bout some Tommy Bolin? His work in both James Gang and Deep Purple is as great as his solo stuff. He was a force of nature! He was extremely important. Without him working with Billy Cobham, Jeff Beck would not have done Blow by Blow. And that he died after opening for Jeff is a strange circle completing. His memory must be kept alive. I met Tommy in Santa Monica when I was a young kid. He was trying out a Travis Bean aluminum neck guitar in Ace Music where my older brother was the manager; with his foot up on the little amp; a purple streak in his hair. I was awe struck!
I've been a huge fan of both Jimi and Trower since I was a child in the 70's. But as far as the heir to Jimi to goes, I'd suggest checking out Randy Hansen. The thrash metal band I was in opened up for him and Buddy Miles once. Randy was awesome, and super friendly. He got to the club at about 3:30 to do his soundcheck, and so when the opening bands showed up, we could all do our soundcheck...
Except Buddy wasn't there until 30 minutes before the show started (with my band going on first), and he actually called and aggressively insisted that none of us got to do a soundcheck until he had done his. Basically he didn't want anyone sounding playing before him to sound okay. We call this type of person a _coward_ typically. Our first two songs were our soundcheck. Luckily the sound guy knew our band well enough to get us sounding half decent by the third song.
But Randy put on an awesome show! Playing while running around in the crowd, and at one point he was running around in the balcony and had a couple of random fans lower him over the balcony railing and down into the crowd on the floor 12 feet below, all the while still jamming his ass off. Highly recommend checking out Randy some day, if you haven't already.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 I lived in Marin county, and got to meet Randy at the health food store I managed in San Anselmo. I saw him do the Hendrix thing at Berkley. The same place Jimi played. Randy was indeed cool! Very mellow cat. I also managed a band that opened for Robin Trower in San Francisco (I also was the live mix engineer). When Robin played, everyone who was anyone showed up to watch. The guys from Journey, and from the E Street band. Robin was a god back then, and everyone who was anyone knew it.
I've never heard this about "Daydream", but certainly "Song for a Dreamer", featured on the Procol Harum 1971 album "Broken Barricades", was one Robin Trower wrote heavily inspired by Jimi Hendrix. The lyric, as with all Procol Harum songs at that time, was by Keith Reid. In the biography "Procol Harum - Beyond the Pale", Trower says about Hendrix:
"I only had one of his albums when he died. I wasn't a follower of his. I liked his first album and that was it, and I lost contact with him as far as an artist goes after that because I was more interested in blues and black music; that's always been my main diet of music. Just after he died, we went to America and I was sitting in a hotel bedroom fooling with a funny tuning on the guitar and I came up with this idea that I thought could be a song. Just as I'd formulated it, Keith walked in and said, 'I got this lyric. It's a tribute to Hendrix.' It was 'Song For A Dreamer'. I said, 'Let's have a look at it,' and it fitted perfectly to this music. So it was just one of those things that was meant to be. The die was cast."
Before doing any more work on the song Trower sat down and listened carefully to all Hendrix's records.
"I really studied it a lot to make it sound as much as possible like the feeling of what he created. So because I did all that, it had a terrific impact on me. It wasn't something that I listened to over the years. I heard it all over a period of a few days. I really listened to it all a lot, and it had such an imprint on me that everything I wrote after that started to sound like him. So in one way it was a good thing that I tried to do the tribute to him, but it obviously influenced me more than normal. I think it did have the feeling of some of the stuff he'd done, which is what I set out to do."

@@peterm3964 ????? ...a year later... ?????
Love love this series - Trower is a god! I've seen him once live and he did not disappoint. Great job Dave!
Thank you so much for both Robin Trower lessons! He is the guitar player's guitar player! 🎸 ♥ 😎 👍
love Bridge of Sighs...Stoned and kickin' it to Trower ...ah , the good times..
The live solo on "Daydream..." damn. Saw him a few years ago in a club in Austin. Still amazing.
I made the comment before you did Daydream. Maaan, the live rhythm is sick. It's so beautiful --- slower a lot more sliding into chords and, again, the solo... whew, so much emotion. Then there's Dewar's vocals...
Bridge of Sighs...what a vibe (pun intended). Dewar's vocals are classic. Good choice DB!
Just slightly too fast.
James Dewar is going to be missed.When I found out he had died a couple years ago it really made me sad because I knew there was no possibility of him ever doing any type of reunion with Robin Trower.I had been hoping for years that he would possibly come back and maybe make one record or do a tour.He's one of the great singers from the '70s that a lot of people don't give him his deserved respect.The fact that a lot of people don't even know who he is or was is a real shame.
Thank you, thank you , thank you. Trower to me is never given the credit he deserves as a guitarist. He could play rock and power blues like no other. Tons of great tunes that had a nice variety of playing. Thank you!!!!
Love this video! Robin Trower is my all-time favorite guitarist, and songwriter so it's especially cool to see these riffs sussed out. (To use a British term!)
Don't forget the sublime blues licks on his more recent albums, like "Up and Gone", "What You Never Want To Do", "Gold to Gray", "Jigsaw", and so many more..
Robin has kept developing and maturing over the years, and the material he puts out has gotten very sweet indeed!
When it comes down to it , in the end it is TROWER more than anyone, he is so musical . Fabulous chords .Original playing , In many ways different than Jimi . Well executed .Right to the point . Thank You . Very helpful .Played and explained very well . Respect .
Really appreciate this lesson, David; Robin Trower is something special ...
So glad you did a Trower lesson one of my favourite guitarists , up there with Jimi and Jimmy.
This is a great lesson Dave! Nuggets of Trower sprinkled throughout. Very unique sound and love that his chords are all a little weird, but in a weirdly cool way! Thanks for all you do!
I’ve seen him live many times..hope he comes around again soon..best of the best
Really bring me back. I am "about to begin" a deep review of my Trower. At max volume of course. Great attitude, knowledge and tune selection.
Daydream is still my favourite summer song of all time when i heard it on live i was 17 years old that sustain will stick with me forever when he hit that note it was before gary moore did parisienne walkways when he held that note it was amazing to me
"In This Place" is such a moody song, when you were playing those chords it took me back to seeing him live. I've seen Robin live 9 times and each time was pure magic. Trower, Blackmore, Carlos and Nugent were some of my top heroes back in the day. I'm amazed at how well you know each chord just by memory ( i think).
Sooo good Dave,expecially for us living in "The Earth below",Robin still rules after all those years! 🤙
Well said, friend, but as you can see from my user name I might be biased, JUST a bit hahahhahahhah
@@forearthbelow Well done mate! 😉
@@forearthbelow : Just a weeee tad. lols
But there are unfounded biases, and then there are founded biases as well. A bias is like an agenda; out of context either word is neither positive, nor negative. And perhaps I am just similarly biased as you are I admit, but any positive vibes about Robins music works for me.
@@aylbdrmadison1051 Although I am a MASSIVE fan of Robin's music and have been since his Procol days, so 50+ years and counting, in truth my username came from a kind of weird desire to something different to one's own name or some politically motivated crud that seem to be the 'trend' these days. But the album recording, as brilliant as it is, pales into insignificance when compared to some live recordings that are out there: 6was9 has an AMAZING catalogue of shall we call it unofficial recordings and there is one I saw at least 13 years back of FEB from Modesto, California - the track is not called FEB - that gives me goosebumps every time. Out of this world, some might say 😄but that might be the result of our English sense of humour which is ingrained after 69 years 😳🙄😁
I'm not trying to trivialise his music or what I believe has been its impact on me over a vast majority of my life, let me just end by saying his feel AND tone reaches deep into my soul and is a feeling that I cannot comprehend being without as most days include at least SOME extended listens of music created by this genius of a musician. Take care, friend, and keep on rocking👍👍👌👌
Always loved Robin's playing...thanks David!
Wish you were Mine, Time & Emotion, In this Place, I can't wait much Longer, and Bridge of Sighs = I Love Robin Trower = he makes "Every Note Count" - coupled with James Dewar's (R.I.P.) Whiskey-polished Soulful vocals . . . both phenomenal. oNe LovE from NYC
Anyone with a framed Bridge of Sighs album cover on their wall is A+ in my book. IMO the best guitar album ever.
I just saw his Stray Cats lesson and he has a different framed album in the same spot on the wall. What a trip.
You're right of course. Been playing _Day Of The Eagle_ since I was a child in the 1970's, and that's definitely a C# minor 7. There is no Major third in that chord. No idea how one mistakes a minor 3rd for a Major 3rd, but I saw that same silliness in music books back then. I think some people make assumptions instead of actually listening to something they personally don't care about. Personal bias (especially unfounded bias) can make people both blind and deaf.
Edit: That chord is a B augmented, often used as the V chord in a jazzy blues.
It's in a lot of things from Jazz to The Beatles and beyond, but I most often use it for the V chord turn-around in a jazzy blues version of _Stormy Monday._ It's the version that climbs from the ii chord walked up to the iii chord, then back down to the ii before the IV and then Augmented V. Try it out, I bet you'll like that move a lot (or likely you already know it, lols).
I was hoping you’d give Fool And Me a whirl. That’s definitely one of my favorites from BOS.
Awesome!!!!!! We cover "Day Of The Eagle" "Bridge Of Sighs" and "Too Rolling Stoned". Once...we even added "Little Bit OF Sympathy". The crowd always responds strongly even if they aren't hip to the tunes.I have a running fantasy about covering the entire Bridge Of Sighs album at the gig from start to finish. I guess it would only be prudent to add "Daydream" and Long Misty Days for the icing on the cake! Thanks for showing "About To Begin", "Smile"and "Daydream". Trowers' "Live At The King Biscuit"... if you can find it... is must have for the collection and study. Awesome as always Dave! Thanks so much!!!!
Dave you’re the man ! We have the same taste in players , I love how you break these songs down and make them a lot easier to understand, keep up the great work !!!!!!!
Yep. The phase90 is such a versatile pedal for being so simple.
9 o'clock EVH
11-12 o'clock Univibe
3-5 o'clock Rotary
I have a Viscous Vibe and I havent messed with it a lot but I know you can download tones... wonder if any RT are available (snicker)
David, love your style and lessons and tributes to the Masters. TY
Excellent lesson, I'll have to replay it again to absorb all the info. Thanks so much.
Trower is my man, I loved the first album, Daydream was the first song that I learned on guitar. Thanks for mentioning it. Let's not forget the vocals of Jimmy Dewar, what a team. I don't think Trower would be who he is without him. Great video, David, peace out.
I couldn’t agree more, Douglas! One of the greatest one-two punches in all of rock! R.I.P., James Dewar, pound for pound the greatest blues singer I’ve ever heard.
CORRECTAMUNDO
The legendary Robin Trower.
Interesting lesson thanks
in an interview I once read, Robin said he wrote "Daydream" on acoustic guitar - my favorite version of the song is from his first live album 1976's Robin Trower Live! (recorded in Stockholm, Sweden.)
Agree 100% = phenomenal album & live playing, on this classic lp.
Sweet! The Midwest has had a lot of great muscians evolve from areas such as Champaign, Chicago, Peoria IL. Bloomington & Evansville In. Ect. Thanks for keeping it real. J.D.
Trower is such a wonderful player. I think his single note style is very unique, he has a great way of shaping his notes and his phrasing is therefore very different to Hendrix. His latest CD is well worth a listen. Great lesson once again David. 🍻 🍻
Bridge of Sighs, I learned this song when I was 14 years old in 1972. My early guitar instructor, was a Robin Trower clone. I learned the entire album, bridge of sighs I was 14 years old, his tone was much better in 70s, than that it is nowadays. Someone gave me a univibe. Phase Shifters and Ecoplex,was the go to for a Trower sound in 70s
Very nice lesson! RobinTrower is one of the most underrated guitar heroes in history. Jack Bruce of course, knew exactly who he is, hence THREE albums with him over 26 years - not to in any way dis James Dewar (RIP) who was a wonderful rock/soul vocalist that really helped create the Robin Trower Band sound.
I am a Trower fan going back to '70 with Procol Harum's "Home". Whiskey Train was the 'hit' but there's great playing all over this. LP sounding. The opening for Jethro Tull Strat incident was later.
Heard "Daydream" from Robin's TRFY and had my GF drive me in the rain (we were 16) to buy it.
Started playing then and always inspired by his work. '76, buy a '75 HT Strat. Live with a Magnatone combo amp, Cry Baby and red script Big Muff. Also worked for UFO stuff, too. Michael was another fave.
Still dabble :) Vibro Thang is what I use with whatever.
There is absolutely no faulting your taste, sir!
Trower and Schenker are both underrated as shit
Saw Trower twice at the Spectrum in Philly 74 & 76. Very cool
love the lava lamp in the background...very Trower appropriate.
He makes it look easy..😮…daydream maybe my favorite..j dewars voice..amazing (RIP)
I have always loved the "Twice Removed from Yesterday" album.
Awesome! Am I glad I tuned in to your channel! I’ve always been a fan of Robin’s! I always felt like he took Hendrix to another level! So very cool! I gave you a thumbs up and subscribed! Something else I wanted to learn! Yea! Thanks!
This made my day David .. Bridge Of Sighs such a killer tune. Thanks!
Robin's chord textures are sublime...great video...
Saw Trower with Thin Lizzy on the undercard in Germany (West Germany at the time) in 1977.
Good show. To be honest, Thin Lizzy was spot on that night, really electric, but
Trower and company weren't at their best. Despite being off a bit, Trower was still the best guitarist I've ever seen live!
In 2019 as I was preparing for my 15th Robin Trower concert a buddy asked me how many times am I going to see Trower. I said, until one of us no longer breathes.
Trower's chords got me hooked from the first time. And of course his signature lush sound with the Uni Vibe is just legendary. An amazing fact that is not very well known, Robert Fripp asked him for guitar lessons. That says a lot as a guitar player.
It’s pretty well-known among Trower fans.
Check out Robin's tribute to Hendrix which he wrote after he heard Jimi had died. It's called Song for a Dreamer from Procol Harum's Broken Barricades lp. Very, very dreamy and psychodelic.
In addition to his superb guitar skills, Robin has written some of the greatest lyrics out there.
"The takers get the honey, givers sing the blues"
And everyday gets stronger 🎸🎶 TROWER♡ is badass✌️
Bridge of sighs was the first thing you played.I saw him on tour a couple years ago he was on the fire,and he had the same tone he had in '75.... I can say I missed James Dewar😔
I noticed Trower played some songs tuned down a whole step for the singers sake I think. Yes, Dewar is missed.
@@Chewwy153qt He's tuned down because he uses really heavy strings.
@@Chewwy153qt I hate to be the guy to say this?but when I went to see him last year the guy that they had playing bass and vocals at the same time? He was an absolutely terrible singer.He was worse than me in the shower.he couldn't even hold a single lighter in the same coliseum to James Dewar as far as vocal abilities go.To be honest I actually felt embarrassed for the guy,because he sounded so off-key.Everything Robin and the rest of the band(even that great bass player but horrible vocalist)did was absolutely spot-on perfect.and he's live-tone totally blew me away.because it sounded like his tone from the 70s when he played "bridge of sighs" it had the same sound as the record coming out of my turntable it was an absolutely amazing show.
@@davidrobinson4012 .11-.58(there's a company online that will sell you custom gauge individual strings so you can make your own set).Some of my different guitars require different gauges.some of them can only take a 10 or 11 on the high-E and a 52-54.The tension doesn't mess up the playing of the guitar,but sometimes depending on the guitar,I might have to go to ..10-..46s.I've always preferred heavy strings
@@ziggylayneable That's a real shame. First time I saw him was in 1980 at the Tower Theater near Philly. Victims of the Fury tour. James Dewar was an amazing soulful singer.
Watched this episode a few times over.. (Like most of your lessons) Thank You!
I still think long Misty days and for earth below are damn good albums. The stuff he did with Jack Bruce was great too
There is a embarrasment of riches from the Jack Bruce collaboration.
@@stevet.4974 I absolutely love"Seven Moons"(The "BLT" album was pretty damn good too)...THAT & the stuff they did live together,was a great example of what monsters those guys were(are).I went to see Robin in concert a couple years ago and he had the same exact guitar sound that he had in the 1970s.I've been hundreds of show's over the past 35+ years,and it was one of the loudest concerts I've been to since the late 80''s-early 90's.His guitar sound made my eardrums vibrate.I guess because I was sitting stage left in the third row right by the House Speakers did not help for the pain of how loud his guitar was.But,damn did it sound good!
@@ziggylayneable Dude I had BLT and Truce when they came out.... So freakin bad ass and killer. What was interesting was they were all good SONGS not just a lot of jamming. My girlfriend at the time and her friends were a from Guatamala and knew nothing about rock and I remember they loved all the tunes on BLT/Truce.
@@stevet.4974 I enjoyed this small commenting back and forth.it's nice to see I'm not the only person in the world who truly appreciates Robin Trower and pretty much anything he's involved with.There is so many people that don't even read him on their radar.For their sake I find that to be sad cuz they sure are missing out. The majority of my musical peers are at least 10 to 15 years older than me.my father was a DJ at a radio station when I was a kid so I was exposed to tons of music but I was born in '72. By the time I had started listening to this stuff I was the second generation to catch on to it(mid 1980s).You have a great day I enjoyed this little conversation✌️🙂✌️
No you're not the only person.
My faves are,
Long Misty Days
For Earth Below
Twice Removed
VICTIMS OF THE FURY !!!!!
Thank you David
Fulltone Clyde Deluxe wah, Deja-Vibe, MXR Dynacomp, and Boss noise suppressor through a Marshall stack will give you the perfect Trower tone.
Heart, soul ,taste, passion, finesse , orgasmic expression of ones inner self/soul coming out of Rob Trower with a Marshall stack as a pair of lungs and wah wah , superior finger vibrato and pick inflections to manipulate his rigs vocal cords,all played with sure footed confidence.He now is 70 ish and in the winter of his life , thus.
Great job Mr. Brewster. Thanks.
You break the complicated down easily. Thanks man! Awesome stuff.
My older brother (RIP) tried to get me into RT when I was like 10 in the late 70s. I really didn't appreciate his skill back then. This video is an eye opener to how good he is. That last one with those pull-offs is wonderful stuff! Thanks man!
Great lesson! Thank you!
May All the Gods Bless you!
The Force is with you!
Trower Power !!!
great work Dave, thank you very much
Woo hoo” my favourite guitar player
I'm definitely going to have to listen to Robin Trower! I think I may have missed out here, but on the plus side there's something new and interesting for me to listen too. I'm going to have to learn some of his music.
more trower!
I seen the bridge of sighs concert tour at Wings stadium in kalamazoo....back in 74 I think.....my favorite guitar player after Hendrix.
You're so cool. Type of person I'd like to have as a friend! Thanks for the Robin Trower vibes!
Great video! Robin is one of my faves! Thanks for sharing
Fantastic. Thanks man. Love Trower
Thank you Dave !!
Great video. Just nailed the Trower chords
Great stuff. I also spent time learning “precious gift.” Beautiful lick.
Great. I never thought I was playing that second chord on about to begin correct, but I was. Now I can rest. lol We used to do a whole set of Trower back in the day. More Trower please. For earth below is a great album just to name one.
Great lesson! Cool room,I dig the framed Trower album cover
That was great thanks for the chord play. You've taught me a couple of new things. PaulE.
Thanks again. Nice playing
Thanks David Brewer from a grateful Scotsman 🏴 , this is a good one ,more so because I can use the uni-vibe pedal effect with my Nu X Bluetooth amplifier its included in the effects pack ,, Robin Trower was a fckn genius and as you mentioned great guitarist and was seen as a second coming of Jimmy Hendrix , this has to be worth the effort 🎸
🍺’ski Trower live is one of the few live albums I love. Great pick in Smile of In City Dreams which is a great album. Just awesome again 🍺’ski!
Very Cool Lesson. .. Nice One. .. ☺😊😀/👍👌👏
Excellent lesson. Trower is still not sufficently appreciated - possibly because when he was doing his best work he was also being dismissed as a 'Hendrix imitator', which he wasn't. 'Bridge of Sighs' was a great album in 1974, and is one of the albums from that period that I still listen to - not least because it's a collection of strong songs by a real group, not just an egomaniacal shredfest.
Hey Dave,
great video.
Thanks.
Fantastic !
About to begin...was the first trower RT song I learned to play.
I heard of his name but never got round to listening to him. Being a big jimi fan and bluesy rock lover I'm going check him out. Those chords were dreamy and tasty. The hendrix groove was solid, loved it. Been following for some time love your lessons.
Robin Trower is the coolest white Gunn. He ain't no Theif.He is in his own element .
Loved it ! Thank you
So glad I found you. Jimi Maes Summer 2020
I have a "Fulltone Deja Vibe I use to get his sound.....had it for a long time...really well made.
Late Night w/Hal Leonard and Robin Trower, incredible :0
Dave is right about Robin Trower having a lot of great music pieces on other LP's aside from the outstanding "Bridge of Sighs" album. For example, another favorite of mine is the title cut from his 1980 "Victims of the Fury" album.
Robin Trower Chordplay!!! Same Day Follow up!!!! Thanks, David! I use my plastic Danelectro Pepperoni Phaser Mini-Pedal (probably based on the Phase 90). Sounds so cool!
Loved this one. My admiration for Trower grows. Who would've thought to play in C# to get that open E string note in the killer "Day Of The Eagle" main riff? Thanks for watching his hands and helping us learn these.
David is absolutely correct. I figured that tune out back in the late 70's, and you can clearly hear there is no Major 3rd first of all, and not only that but *coubling* the minor third E note on the 5th fret B string in unison with the open high E string is crucial to getting it to sound correct. You know, just to make sure no one ever mistook it for a Major 3rd.. Ah well, Robin tried his best (even went well beyond the call) just to let them know it was a minor chord. lols
You should give a lesson on Carlos Santana's early seventies style like Europa, Moonflower and Open Invitation solos and tunes. That would be stellar.
I have, I do and I can play them
My all time fave Santana album is Fesyival,
You are amazing
You're on fire today!
Back in the 80s I bought almost all of his cassettes because they were cheap except for Bridge of Sighs. Bridge of sighs was never cheap, for good reason.
Well im really glad I found your channel
