How To Play "Just The Two Of Us" On Guitar (BGS184)

Описание: In Episode 184 of Boomer Guitar Sessions, we dig into the chord strategies the real players actually use—the ones that make guitar parts feel musical instead of sounding like you’re reading harmony off a page.

This lesson introduces chord reduction: the powerful idea of taking big, full chords and distilling them into smaller, smarter voicings that fit the band, serve the song, and leave room for the groove. We explore why great guitarists rarely play “everything,” and how reducing harmony is often the difference between clutter and clarity.

But reduction alone isn’t enough.

A guitar part only works when it lives in the pocket. In this episode, we connect the dots between:
The right voicing (what notes you choose)
The right rhythm (when you play them)
The right percussive elements (how you attack, mute, and shape the sound)
When any one of these is missing, the music can sound stiff or academic. When all three line up, the guitar part breathes—and the band locks.

This episode reframes guitar arranging as a three-part skill:

Rhythm that supports the groove
Percussive feel that keeps it human
Whether you play R&B, pop, rock, reggae, blues, or beyond, this lesson gives you a practical framework for creating guitar parts that sound like the masters play.

Plug in, and enjoy the process!!
