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. |

backingtracks
I am thinking it might be fun to post some backing tracks to my soundclick account for slide. It would be nice to hear how some of you guys play if you have your own accounts at soundclick.It would be cool to hear all the diffrent styles you would bring to the same piece.I am guessing that anything in G,D, or A would be best so all the different tunings would get a crack at a tune or two. Let me know what you think. I am working on my own backtraks anyway so no big deal to post them here. It will take me awhile, my jammerpro5 has a manual the size of a phonebook. I have my eye I on a slow blues piece I can upload as soon as I have got the chord progression down. Anyone else got cool tunes to share to jam over. We could make this forum rock.

That would be great, a slow blues in A would really be nice to play over with a nice progression.

I found a 12 bar blues in A. Only problem is Its huge. 4 minutes and change. The site is slooow so I am gonna have to use my freerecorder to record it on the fly into a wav.file, load it into a mixer Which I have'nt downloaded yet,cut a dozen verses out of it and then convert it back into mp3. I am tired just typing it. Its gonna take a while. I thought I found a cool one but,as far as I can tell its' in the key of B so ok for standard, not so good for anyone else unless they want to capo.

My last reply post disapeared so I will try again. I have posted a blues in A for you Manwithaplan. Not quite what you wanted but the slow stuff was really bland. This tune, funky wrote for a backtrak for a harp, so lots of double stops and chord fragments are the best plan to play with it. It is very busy so you might have to work at it. This has taken more time than I thought so I am going to step back and see if I can find some slow stuff worth putting up and do a little more playing. Just go through my soundclick link in one of my posts to get there.

Trying to listen locked up my computer. What's the deal with the site? Do you need to DL their flash/mp3 software?

I hear yah. It works for me without their flash player. I have been to my soundclick site 3 times today and once the player just chopped up the tune or took a long time to load. Soundclick seems to be pretty clunky. Sometimes I have to upload a tune 2 or 3 times before it finaly gets there. It's working pretty good now though.
