My target is to work on my timing and speed during part of the first solo of the song night train. The part that I need to work on is a very bluesy lick using double stops which ar when you play two notes across two strings with notes from the pentatonic scale in the key of B flat. The lick is very fast but also very syncopated as the double stops fall on the off beat which makes it challenging to play. I will know I have reached my target once I can play the solo at the same speed as the original and be able to play along with the original track. I am going to achieve this by practising the lick over and over again with a metronome until I can play the song at the original speed. Once I have learned this it will make the rest of the solo sound more complete as there will not be any flaws in he first solo. I’m going to spend a week doing this as that will give me enough time to learn this part to a high standard and be able to play the solo from start to beginning.
