GMC Forum _ PRACTICE ROOM _ Legato

Posted by: tele2012 Mar 18 2013, 09:12 PM

So influential for me has been Joe Satriani. As a left hander, who was made to learn right handed, legato came very easily, which was great as I struggled with speed picking.
I feel legato playing should be a part of every players arsenal as the clarity and seamless connection creates a magical flow.
Thanks Satch just for being you mate, you helped me a great deal. Dan Australia

Hello Dan!

I am very excited as today I bought my tickets for Satch's show in Bucharest on the 20th of May Tell me man, what are your favorite Satriani songs and what have you practiced until now to get good at legato?

Here are some of the GMC lessons gravitating around his style:

Let me know if you need any help
