Blues Guitar Lesson - How To Play Real Blues Songs By Yourself
Вставка
- Опубліковано 23 сер 2022
- Today's video is in response to a common question about how to play "real" blues songs in a solo context (meaning, just you and a guitar, not a band.)
This is a pretty common thing to want to do and highlights the difference between a song and an arrangement, or a specific recording of a song.
If you just want to play a song, you just may already have the tools to do it.

Your video has turned on some light bulbs for me for sure. Until now I knew the bits and pieces of blues. But now I have more of a generał understanding of the blues structure. Thank you! 😊
Great Video! It answered many question I’ve had. Among them, I couldn’t see where to mix in all your one and two bar licks.
I’m looking at soloing with an acoustic guitar and singing.
You took a 12 or 8 bar blues at random and played a groove like the basic blues shuffle for the first two bars of each line. Then added a fill for the next two bars. Then finished with a choice of turnarounds to end each time through.
This is actually a breakthrough for me. I can take any song - play a groove for the 1st two bars of each line and sing. Then I can choose a fill for bars 3-4 and 7-8. Then finish with a turnaround.
This is a really good foundation for further innovation and improvisation, while not slavishly copying and memorizing exact songs. Thanks.
This guy a great player..a band player who could write rock n roll tunes..his playing just flows
Probably one of the single most important lessons ever. Nice.
this is the video that make things "click", thank you so much. Gotta be the best video for those of us at the beginning of our learning journey!
Thanks Griff for this lesson. Very helpful video for beginners
Thanks for putting this one together. Just now seeing this from you. I totally understand the point you are making. IMHO, when you try to play like you are showing us, keeping a steady groove going, and adding other elements as you play, it helps to eventually come up with your OWN style after a while for other songs. I like it. 😎👍
Very nice, Griff. Makes me want to get on the porch with my guitar.
This is excatly the expertise that I am aiming for. Just relax and express myself. So, the one that makes it hard is to imitate exactly of a famous song. That ruins the fun of learning. Thank you very much chief for bringing things back in perspective.
Cheers from Indonesia.
Good voice griff great lesson btw also.
You got a great way with illustrating blues methods, that make it look fun and easy to grasp the basics. Used to see your vids on my FB news feed. Glad to see you're still doing this.
I subscribed first video I watched. I just fell into this tonight and I am so glad I did! I get what you're saying. You put it together better than others who have tried to explain this kind of blues info. Much thanks.
Thanks for the tips and advice Griff, enjoyed this. 👍
Wonderful lesson
Nice tasty blues for one guitar. Good lesson Griff.
Hey Griff, I just noticed, you sound like Johnny Carson. I’ll be watching more of your videos.
You have a nice voice.
yep just googled the book and its still available!
I bought the book awhile ago and thought this was going to be easy. Playing Guitar on the Porch made me work. The course starts out simple, however when I started working on the timing and phrasing, it opened up into another dimension. It is well worth the price for a beginner or average guitarist.

Thanks
This is good stuff. I am sure many of your viewers like me are not part of a band but are looking to do songs with a one guitar plus voice arrangement
Yes still available. Just bought one for under $30 on eBay. Brand new.
Jeff beck ..rod stewart rock me baby. The truth album. Best version. Came out in the mid- sixties..Great version still holds up today!!
Bb king does an awessome version too, but ya jeff beck group was a great band
Blue Cheer did a version, too. On their first album, Vincebus Eruptum.
👍🏻👍🏻

You don't know Rock Me Baby?! Get yourself to school - get yourself some BB King ;-)
