    Description

    Starting from song 6-10 I play these as a more free improvised feel. In the first 5 song's each song has a particular motif or theme it concentrates on.
    In the next 6 songs I take bits and pieces from the first 5 and play them as an improvised solo.
    Song 6 starts out in the lower register of the guitar and incorporates bends, slides,
    pull-offs and hammer-ons. Every 4 bars has a different musical phrase, a bit like telling a story.
    Also as the song progresses it moves up to the higher register of the neck.
    Some things to pay attention to are the bends, some of theme I hold out a little longer for more of a blues/soul feel.
    There are also half step bends as well as whole step so listen to the intonation on these. Bar 24 is a tricky double bend,
    what I do is bend on the 19th fret with my 3rd finger/left hand, and the next note I add my 4th finger on top while still bending with my 3rd finger
