Playing Alone

Are there any songs on the site that you don't need a backing track to play alone?

It seems most require a backing track.

Or are there any that you can use a looper to play alone?

Quite a few of the Robert Johnson blues songs are meant to be played as guitar only arrangements.

Even though most rock, blues & country songs are arranged to be played with a band (or backing track) you can still play the guitar part for any song without backing track or any accompaniment. I do that often when practicing, just play the guitar parts.

The Jam Station has audio files that loop over & again.

But if you mean use a looper to play, it depends on the song form. If a song only has one section or chord progression that repeats over & again, then you could use one.

Any song that has more than one section, or differrent chord progressions, you'd have to set the looper for each section if it had a memory bank. Or change it on the fly.

Hope that helps!
