On this page I present lick 9, which is a lick based on a McCoy concept. The original McCoy licks are based on what is colloquially referred to as chicken-picking. This is typically played on an electric guitar, often a Fender Telecaster. The licks have a "cackling" sound, hence the name chicken-picking.
In the introductory video I refer to this as "lick 6", which is how I initially coded this lick. At a later stage in the coding process, I changed the label to lick 9 when I grouped the licks thematically.
In the video to lick 9E I gain an important insight which will change how I approach the lick generation process: I am somewhat frustrated over the perceived low quality of the licks I produce and state that I should "listen to the source", i.e., to listen to guitar players who chicken-pick and to transcribe their licks. I realize that I, in this particular case, am limited by my imagination, the audiation process is not satisfactory.
It should be noted that in the video to lick 9A the notation states that I do a tongue-switch, but in the video I move the harmonica. The notation in this example represents how I practiced this lick at a later stage, not how I played it during the session.
