Hey, if a Roly Poly note for note came out would anyone be interested?

edited January 2015 in Root
I know there is no lesson on it on youtube, only a guy that can play it note for note, but he doesn't slow it down or show how. I have several lessons and have helped me actualize playing western swing and opened up my playing tremendously. I think the guitar on Roly Poly is brilliant. I would love to finally learn it. Anyone else?

  • Right on flatpick! Welcome!
  • For sure!
  • I'd buy it. Great idea
  • Hey thx! Just gnawing on a biscuit down here in Texas, glad to be here! Yeah boy, that's a hot solo on that one!
  • That would be nice
  • Why yes!
  • I really appreciate this fellas - I really do.

    I am so swamped right now I'm afraid I can't get to this as soon as I'd like, but I will. Promise.

    I'm honored you find my playing something worthwhile enough to request as a lesson -and I think there might be some good general info in that piece we can all apply elsewhere.

    All the best- Jim
  • Woohoo!!!!
  • Whew... I just finished up "Roly Poly" and I think it's good. It will take a few days to get on the site etc. Hey, thanks everybody! I appreciate you asking for it.

    All the best- Jim

  • Whoa! Thx Jim!!! That is so rad!!!
  • Wow, Jim! You work fast. Thank you for doing this. Can't wait to start working on it.
  • wow. anyone else have any other questions?

    Great news! Thanks, Jim!
    How about a sticky thread for Lessons suggestions?
    Off the top of my head, I think "Chelsea Bridge" and "Adventures Of Brer Rabbit And Tar Baby " would make great lessons!
    All the best!
  • Great idea Rogerio
  • Hi Everyone. The Roly Poly Lesson is complete! see below for all of the details.
    Best,

  • OMG it happened! I waited nervously, constantly checking, and it's here!!! Now the fun begins! Thx so much Jim!!! Hunkering down now...
  • Awesome! I've been asking for this one since the Myspace days. I'm not even in the band that I was in that covered this song anymore, but I'm going to order it anyway. So many great licks in that song! And I always wanted to hear what Jim has to say about playing behind a singer. Aren't all the other lessons instrumentals?

    Yes, there are other Little Willie lessons that aren't strictly instrumental.

    Hey, thanks for ordering the lessons- I hope everyone is satisfied and get's a little inspiration for the new additions.

    All the best- Jim
  • Ooh, Diesel smoke, dangerous curves would be a sick lesson!!! Roly Poly is awesome! So sweet when you just can't get a couple of notes by listening and then there it is, and then now that wasn't so hard. Second solo looks tougher though.
