Some melodic rambling through an interesting backing track that keeps changing key. Played in Dropped-D on my Strat. This kind of improvisation is done without thinking scales or modes, just chords. If youd like to learn how its done, drop into www.thatllteachyou.com
Hoss, I just want to say Tasteful ,Toneful ,and as sweet 57 T-ts ,Hell I forgot what led me to this video page in the first place now..Looks like i’ll have to start me up a Kirk Playlist , Another player Thats been around as long as I have and Im scratchimg my head why I havent heard of you before ,defnitly my loss all them years thats for sure..Just goes to prove the best are still out there doing it for the love of it.Thanks Kirk, thanks Doug Seven thanks you tube .
Btw. ! 😉 Nearly no videos on YT get’s on as much as 4 of my playlists at once! 😉 hehe
Omg this is amazing.. Like a swell 80’s with focus on alternative slide guitar! ^_^ Me like a lot!
… Yeah, you’re right. I’d never heard tune that before… very similar. Frank was great.
I didn’t put the backing track together, it’s one that was floating around the net. From a playing point of view, it’s the key changes that are fun in this one, though. Keeps you on your toes.

thanks
make it yourself! the chords are Bmin7—-Emin7—-Bmin7—-D7–E7– similiar to the "thrill is gone" by BB King. A great minor blues, just move the whole thing up one step at a time until the starting chord becomes D minor, then start the modulation again from the Bminor (happens at about 2:20 seconds in). You CAN use only chord tones to create a solo but it basically starts in D Major so you can build any scale(mode) from there and move it up one step with the chords, GOOD LUCK 🙂
Kirk what is your pickup configuration on the strat?
there is a perfect example that speed really doesn’t matter…
amazing guitar, amazing guitarist, amazing transposing song.
Nice!
well someone better get on this
i think you have successfully nullified bohs1984 in terms of guitar criticism
… had a look, can’t find it, I’m afraid.
Pelease give us this backing track
luv the tune & the constant key changes – funky groove
very bluesy, funky & enjoyable
Which is why he’s using both bridge and middle pickups.
Your a great player but whoever sold you that crap brown guitar should be shot. No, seriously, SHOT.
amazing!
I salute you, sir
Damn! That was great…very nice dude…keep playing
