How to Play Slide Guitar in Standard/Dropped-D DVD by Kirk Lorange

If you really want to spice up your playing, slip a slide over your pinkie and add it to your musical vocabulary. There's no need to re-tune your guitar to an open tuning, just stay in standard or lower that bass string down to D. Kirk shows you how in this 70 minute DVD, talking and playing you through the basics, vibrato, muting, playing single note lines, finding all the chord flavors (they're all there!) and mixing it all into one very neat hybrid style of playing guitar. To order or to find out more, click here.

I had to bring the topic back to life. Could you please give us the backing track? What's the chord progression?

Thanks!

OK ... Felixdcat ... I was able to recover it ... did a little remix and ... zappo zappo ... backing track

Slide Funk BT

Now there are 3 parts

Part 1 - Kind of an Am7 that slips up two frets but leaves the open strings like

0-------0
1-------3
0-------0
2-------4
0-------0
X-------X

Part 2 - Basically a little scatting around a C9

X
3
3
2
3
x

Part 3 - On open E pattern walking down the fretboard but leaving open strings from the E. Sort of like an E shape on an E then D then B then A but always keeping the 1-2-6 strings open. I hope that makes sense.

0----0----0----0
0----0----0----0
13--11--- 8----6
14--12--- 9----7

I've been meaning to do this anyway. It's actually a Drum & Bass from a Boss DR3 drum machine that I tried out. I think it worked out pretty cool. I was able to make a lot out similar bass lines that sounded very different over different chords.

Enjoy ... it was no trouble at all ... and now I've got my backing track to use, as well. If fact, thanks!
