Nice one, BIll. One thing I take away from your video is that you are probably much more disciplined and consistent with your practice than many of us are, and you've been at this for a bit longer than a year and a half, but it still has taken you about three weeks of focused effort to get this far on the Peter Green song. It is really hard for most of us to stick with it day after day for weeks at a time, and I don't think you are exempt from that either.

So, even with real dedication and consistency, how long will it take to learn...? Yep - it will take as long as it takes. :-)

Dave...

PS. I had the same experience as you of discovering the original Fleetwood Mac blues era. I had heard of the band before, but really didn't discover them until Rumours. Hard to think of another band that really had two such absolutely different styles in different eras.


It takes as long as it takes unless you quit - then it takes forever and you will never get there.
