Hi Guys,
Welcome to my lesson No. 43
Let's take a look at a cool Soul Rhythm Guitar.
I chose the song structure ABC
Special in soul music you find a lot of cool rhythm guitars that are perfect to practise precise rhythm and groove.
In my little Soul song you'll notice that the guitar rhythm is really close to the other instruments like Bass, drums & piano and perfectly match together. A good example of groovy but effective playing.
A Part 0:00-0:29
| C | Gm | Dm7 | Bb |
| C | Gm | Dm7 | Bbsus2/#4 Bbsus4 Bb|

| Gm7 F/Bb | C6/D Dm7 | Gm7 F/Bb | Dm7 Csus2/E |

| Gm7 F/G Gm7 Gm7 F/G Gm7 | Dm7 C6/D Dm7 C Bb/C C D7/#9/#5 |
