One of the things that is becoming quite apparent to me from going to weekly jams is that I need to get better at picking melodies up on the fly. Most songs folks like here have simple melodies, so this should not be too big of a challenge. I figure I will start by working out simple melodies of songs I have in my head but not under my fingers, and then add basic ornament as I master them. And I will try to audibly hum or sing as I go (although singing training I do NOT have, nor a vocal range that is friendly with the "high lonesome" sound)
How do you work on the brain--fingers connection?
