Hi, I’m Al Joseph and today I’m going to teach you how to play the last solo section of my song “Elemental”.

This solo makes heavy use of legato techniques, and in order to help you understand how it’s put together, I’m going to break down the harmony and patterns that I used to build this solo so that you can nail the mechanics and be able to apply these techniques to your own playing in different situations.
