- Today I'll be discussing soloing over the blues classic Stormy Monday. SORRY! BAR 8 SHOULD READ B-7 Bb-7. That's what happens when I do something like that last minute... ;-)

Wow, listening to this a year later, not sure how I missed it. I cut my teeth on Live at The Fillmore East . I wore out a cassette, and an 8 track, and at least 1 vinyl copy (that walked away on its own mysteriously ;-) ) starting in about 1972 I think. I never did get trapped into the always minor pentatonic idea of blues & other solo playing and I credit a wonderful teacher I had (who taught me major vs modal) plus listening to this album and really going to school on it. I still find Duane and Dickey to be a revelation even now. The best playing is timeless, you demonstrate very clearly that playing major and minor is what blues playing is about and playing across and following the chords with respect is what makes it work ! Thanks Jeff, again pointing us in the right direction with the right touch !
As ever, I come back and back to these lessons and every time I get more out of them, because now I’m better and the interesting stuff becomes all the more transparent.
Thanx Jeff , I have been playing Stormy Monday for 40 years. I learned alot from this lesson. Hope to be playing live soon. Up here in Ontario we are in total lock down for another couple of weeks. Thanx again , cheers
You got it all! Finesse, dynamics, technique, knowlegde... thanks a lot for the lesson!
Thank you Jeff! This is my new project. I struggle with major blues and this is exactly what I need!
Dude,,,, been playin for 40 yrs and in the last week you have sparked a fire in me with finding your channel. So inspiring and educational. Wish I had your guidance as a young punk learning the blues. Never too old I say, bravo and a thousand thumbs up !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Much appreciated! The Cm7 played after the Am7, sounds wrong to me. I always used AbM7 because this allows the root note to walk down in single steps - A,Ab,G. This is just to my ear of course.
Love this song. Love your playing. Thanks for sharing!
Man Jeff, I swear you can read my mind. I was trying to play over this the other night and thought I would love you to do a lesson on it and boom, done! Same thing happened with ZZ Top Just Got Back from Baby's. Most appreciative
Thanks Jeff! Appreciate all your lessons
Fantastic again and again Jeff !!!!
I’ve been waiting on this one ever since you did Stormy Blues a while back. You came through! Thanks to you, I now play this one live. Now I’m gonna add the diminished arpeggio licks over the #4dim7 and the chromatic pentatonic licks over the Bm7, Bbm7 and Am7 during my solo. Gonna be good!
Great lesson! Looking forward to trying some/all of these ideas. 👍
A goldmine of insight. Truly appreciate the detail and the framework around the detail. Thank you. eta...your playing from 31:52 - 37:05 minutes is reminiscent of "Harvey's Tune" on the album "Super Session". Smooth as glass. Really well done.
Hey Jeff! This was a great video! Had planned to ask you before about a topic you covered at the end of this. So cool that you gave some insight on it.
I had always wondered what a normal “gig day” was like in NYC and how guys like you and Stern manage there and how it differed compared to other places across the country like where I am (Dallas) in how difficult it was in loading in and transporting gear,set up, transportation to and from etc
The differences in someones location and how that effects your pre-show prep and what you use on the gig is equally as fascinating as the playing aspect.
Great Lesson..Domo!!!
Check out the version by John Mayall's Bluesbreakers featuring Peter Green - Live in London, May 1967. Epic.
That’s actually my favorite version!
There is nothing in the world like an AHA! moment.
I've been getting by with a "monkey see monkey do" sort of approach to this tune for a long time, hitchhiking on Duane and Dickey's ideas, but always wanting to come up with an interpretation that was my own becsuse although their riffs are epic, they don't really belong to me, and it's like wearing somebody elses hat.
Today you have put a couple of new colors on my palette that are going to keep me busy for a while. For that I am grateful. Thank you very much!
That’s fantastic! So glad this helped!
@Jeff McErlain you are the absolute best mate
🙌🏻🙌🏻
Love this
This is great!! There's something about you leaving in the imperfections, that's the reality of playing guitar there is no perfection. My band plays it in C so I better get to work!!
Great lesson! Cant wait to try some of these tricks.
On the amp discussion. I love dreaming of that perfect amp/guitar.
But, as a band that plays at clubs with no PAs or amps, we have spent recent years dumbing it all down. And its weird, because I think we sound better as we've simplified.
For sure. The simpler the better usually!
Some of Hendrix alla Band of Gypsys thrown in the intro. Nice !
Shit what a great player, superb feel for dynamics
Thank you!!
thx again (as for your true fiere lessons) replay with lower speed to practice
Another fantastic tutorial! And to answer your question around the 29:30 mark...YES! I can't thank you enough.
@jeff McErlain - Do you teach the C#dim7 arpeggio information in any of your Truefire lessons?
Hey Jeff, thanks for all this content. Can you recommend a course of your’s for me? I have an ok ear, know a bit of pentatonic and understand a bit of chord progressions but want to learn to play blues and classic rock well like Cream, Peter Green, Allman brothers etc. would like you as my teacher. What do you think?
🤘🏽🤘🏽💯🙏🏽🙏🏽
late to the party. nice intro and tone as usual. please don't tell me it's a Fractal! :)
Hey jeff the Bb-7 missing from bar 8 in the chart. Great lesson tho!
So much better than the original. I dont know what the hell everyone sees in allman brothers.
🙏🏻
C#dim = C7b9 ...sorta.
Really? All I would really like to do? Play like Jeff.
