Lick of the Day

What was That?

From: Jeff McErlain's Blues Licks Vol. 2

I love players who make me say “What was that?” I run home and try to figure out what they did. My first experience with that was Eddie Van Halen tapping. Also, that really cool bending lick at the beginning of ‘Who Knows?’ by Band Of Gypsys. Speaking of Band of Gypsys, I have to say that the first note of the ‘Machine Gun’ solo is the greatest recorded note ever, in my humble opinion.
