    Ivy Insights

    The Free Lesson Friday podcast has been an amazing resource for guitar players, particularly those who are fans of Stevie Ray Vaughn and blues music. As a long-time SRV fan myself, I can attest to the impact that this podcast has had on my playing. From the first episode, I noticed an improvement in my guitar licks within just five minutes. The instructions provided by Anthony, the host and teacher, are clear and easy to follow. He is a great teacher, breaking down complex techniques into manageable steps. The sound quality of the podcast is also excellent, making it easy to hear and replicate the lessons.

    One of the best aspects of this podcast is its focus on intermediate players looking to improve their lead guitar playing. For those who have tried learning from tablature but struggled, this podcast offers a refreshing alternative. It provides detailed instruction and guidance to help players progress and develop their skills. Additionally, Anthony's teaching style is engaging and enjoyable to watch, making it a fun experience for viewers.

    While there are not many negative aspects of this podcast, one potential downside is that it primarily focuses on SRV-style blues guitar playing. While this may be fantastic for fans of SRV and blues music, it may not cater to those with different musical preferences or genres. However, for those interested in blues and specifically SRV's style, this podcast is an invaluable resource.

    In conclusion, The Free Lesson Friday podcast is a must-watch for any SRV fan or anyone interested in improving their lead guitar playing skills. Anthony's clear instruction and great teaching make these episodes informative and enjoyable to watch. Whether you're a beginner looking to learn some new licks or an experienced player wanting to refine your technique, this podcast has something for everyone. I highly recommend giving it a watch – you will not be disappointed!
