Thanks Bob. That really! helped. I've set myself a goal of learning to solo / improv after 5+ years of playing fingerpicking rhythm. Spent quite a bit of time learning the major scale and when I started doing improv along to backing tracks, I was underwhelmed by what I played. My wife said it sounded good (and she's usually my harshest critic), but my heart was let down by it.
It's getting better yet still nothing all that great. I've been planning to do some of what you said, learning existing solos so I have more arrows in my quiver so to speak.
Do you have other material / videos / recommendations beyond what's in that "Art of soloing"?
