“Badge” by Cream
This riff requires you to use a precise down, up, down, up motion with your strumming arm. On the downbeat we mute the strings for a percussive sound and on the upbeat we strum the chord fragments. It’s a little trick to get at first, but practice along with the jam track until you get it!Read More »“Badge” by Cream

His frequent hurricane blasts of noise and dazzling showmanship proved that he could and would play behind his back and with his teeth and set his guitar on fire, and everyone would HAVE to love it. He posessed such considerable gifts as a songwriter, singer, and master of blues, R&B, and rock styles.
