I've been sick all week long...thought I would do a video about it.

It is amazing how you are feeling right as rain one minute, and can't lift your head off the pillow the next. All this modern medicine and they still can't cure the common cold. While lying in bed, watching TV and playing my CBG, I figured out the jazz grips for the blues classic Stormy Monday by T-bone Walker.

Thank you Paul. Using Open tunings, a 513 (tones from the major scale) triad (basic 3 note chord) can be used to make moveable chords. On 3 strings CBG I use ADF# Tuning. This is 513 in key of D. On 4 string I use DGBD (Open G Tuning). This is 5135 in the key of G. On a 5 string banjo the triad is here gDGBD / 15135. On a 6 string the tuning in Open D is DADF#AD / 151351 and Open G DGDGBD 515135. Basically, if you can understand the string relationships your knowledge is simply transfered onto another instrument. Enjoy, Keni Lee

LOL Thank you for the kind words. Glad to hear you are learning a lot. Once in a while, I like to keep it real and just jump in front of the camera and wing it. You got to take the good with the bad. Sometimes if you do multiple takes to get that perfect one, it comes out sounding real stiff. Enjoy.
