I missed you on your California tour this year. I like to catch up on your latest each time. I like the chocolate brown blog - wholesome and chewy!
I have been playing the baritone ukulele almost exclusively for the last few years. And I am a big fan of Saint Willie Nelson and in particular, his albums: Spirit, It Always Will Be, Teatro. These albums show a deeper mystical side of Willie.
What I like most is Willie's simple melodies and small twiddlings. In the Spirit album will has 12 /13 songs where he plays enchanting melodies within the songs.
I would like to develop my ear to be able to play these melodies. How would you recommend developing this talent? Record the small parts and listen and pick by trial in a certain scale.
