Hi Dave, I'm working my way through the lessons on SRV Artist Study and having lots of fun.


A couple of questions:



  1. Is the series a breakdown of Pride and Joy?  I've requested Pride and Joy (along with Lenny and others from SRV) in the Song Request section.  Is more SRV on the radar for Songs?

  2. I've got up to learning the Pentatonic Licks Stevie Ray Vaughan Artist Study : Pentatonic Licks: Performance (guitartricks.com)  I'm taking my time to understand the theory and scale patterns.  What really helped me connect the pentatonic scale to music was exploring the Albert King box with Gary Heimbauer's online lesson and playing some licks using it and going up and down the A minor scale.  Can you recommend a way for me to further connect scales to music to really help me to put scales to practical use.  Right now, I'm playing the scales straight up and down with a metronome. Focusing on Major, Minor and Pentatonic Major and Minor in all 5 patterns.


For background, I've completed courses up to Acoustic 2 and Rock 2 and Christopher's Blues Rythm & Lead, and Bread & Butter Blues Licks.  Haven't taken the Blues 1&2 courses yet.
