78: Ear Training Practise & Playing What Your Hear
Episode 78
jeudi 16 mai 2019 • Duration 01:41:22
The boys answer listener email - and in the process, start a new run of episodes exploring ear training, connecting the ear to the fretboard, improvisation and playing what you hear.
They share their history and frustrations (mostly Beebs’ ranting) with formal ear training, ponder the nature behind vague instruction, the difficulty teaching ear training and start exploring what can be done.
Evil Beebs then springs a surprise listening test on Smith! Mwuhaha.
Definitely follow along in your podcast app artwork to see images of what is being talked about.

jeudi 18 avril 2019 • Duration 01:05:43

They go back into the misty modal mines and talk modes and modal chord progressions as well as delving into some classic guitar magazines for the early 90s. This could get controversial...
