These are sweet... I'm now inspired to practice playing lead... something I never do. I really like the style of Grey Street around 0:30 - 0:35 and 1:00. Could you recommend any particular scales that are good to learn?

Thanks for all the feedback! Much appreciated.
I definitely would record some vocals, but I'm a terrible singer and I would just embarass myself!

For Ants and Grey Street I'm pretty much just using D major scales. Watchtower was A penatonic. My recommendation is that you just learn blues/penatonic scales to start it off. If you know all the relative majors/minors, then you can pretty much play anything in the blues scale pattern. I know I explained it terribly, but hopefully it helps a bit. If you have any further questions, let me know and I'll try and explain it better.

Those,my friend, were outstanding. It's always good to here someone spice up a cover instead of playing it note for note. How long have you been playing.

Thanks, appreciate the positive reply!
Ummm, I've been playing for about 6 years I guess... The key for me was playing jazz guitar in school bands early on. That taught me more than any lessons I ever took.
