I'm not a beginner - been playing quite a few years and still always come back to Joes videos for a bit of guidance. His methodical and relaxed approach helps you get everything into order before you move on and take more liberties with chords/riffs. I'll always come back to these videos for help. Cheers Joe... keep doing your thing!
I’m a homesick 70 year old guitar playin ‘ Scouser . I get home whenever I can , and sometimes I gig and aim to slip in as much acoustic blues as I can . I often check in to your brill you tube vids - sometimes to look at a tune but often I come away with a bunch of ideas . Anyhoo , the point is here to say BIG THANKS , much appreciation , keep up the great work . We in the UK GOT HOOKED ON blues aided by people like your good self . Thanks man 😎👏✌️🎼

The first Blues song I listened to, and admired... I always liked EC, and still do... Thanks for your teaching technique, and you are very patient with us laggers.... Really appreciate it Joe... Hehehe... Sometime I think my name is Joe... I live in the Philippines, and the kids yell at me, "Hey Joe"... A term that was passed down from WWII... Thanks again...
Nice explanation Joe .. I have never in my musical life tried to learn any song note for note & I don't do covers as I write my own stuff .. but I do look to the old blues guy's for inspiration & having watched a lot ! of bad " How to " channels . I like your style . Thanks .. all the best
It took me a while to come across your site but I am enjoying your style of teaching (getting away from tabs) - thanks. On to the next song. ...can I add this?- it would be useful to hear you announce the chords as you move through the progression while playing the riffs. I wish I had begun learning in your approach to the blues a long time ago. This is an enjoyable learning process. Thanks again.

No - at 10:00, that walk down - drop your pinky down a semi-tone/fret on the last/4th note played...it blends nicer as a turn around when you go to the 5th. Try it hot shot. ;)

I usually do if you have watched any of my other videos. This one was different though as I was trying to illustrate two different versions. Anyways I like to change things up from time to time
Hey man, great lesson, watched a few of yours and you’re a good teacher. Keep it up. As for the previous comment "recommendation, play the song first so we know what we are aiming for" cheeky fucker, you’re doing this for free, but free ain’t enough for some folk.
Try a Zager Custom . Many people compare the Zager to the Martin 28, and to Taylor guitars. Just check out Zager.com and check it out for yourself. They are known for their easy playability and come in many models and sizes at a fraction of the price because you buy direct.
After re reading my comment I should of said “ this is the part when he starts to talk about finger pattern” so if I upset you I’m sorry you forget sometimes that people learn in different stages
Hey Sam, thanks for taking the time to comment much appreciated. The thing is Sam you can’t please everybody all the time. Plus I also like to leave you something to do! It’s vitally important for people to get the most from the lessons. Hopefully you can understand that, I do do complete performances of some of the numbers anyways hope you keep watching buddy
For this lesson it makes no sense to play most of the song. There are many ways to play it. Read the description: " In this video I take a look at the Big Bill Broonzy version and the Eric Clapton version. I also take a look at how you can incorporate licks into your playing, so there is quite a lot you can take from this lesson. IF you want to hear the the two source version, certainly you can find them and listen, right? I'm glad he didn't play through them because I've heard them both many times.

Thanks for posting John I appreciate it

Great lesson Joe and fun to play. I get the feeling that there are some more variations in the Big Bill Broonzie key.
Yeah for sure I just like to kind of make them playable to more people, folks should always explore the originals Once they have a feel for the basics
@@JoeMurphysGuitarlessons I've been trying it with a plectrum using arpegios. On electric at the B chord, I can grab the B on the fifth string and bar at the fourth fret. Fun to get the walk down to A7. Rock on!
Thank you. You make it so easy to learn this song.
Thanks for covering this song, Joe. This is my holy grail of guitar playing. I shall practice till I get it right!

Recommendation: Play the song first so we know what we are aiming for.

Ha ha nice one, thanks for saying that, saved me doing it 😆 Glad your enjoying the lessons. Keep watching buddy
I’ve watched about 12 minuets of the video and it’s the only part where he’s talking about the finger picking patterns
Oh dear poor you, sorry to have wasted 12 minutes of your time, some people are interested in what I have to say, it’s also relevant.
Excellent teacher, I’m really learning a lot from you.
What would be a cheaper alternative to the Martin 28? Exact same size thanks
takamine or alvarez , older ones for sure.
Try a Zager Custom . Many people compare the Zager to the Martin 28, and to Taylor guitars. Just check out Zager.com and check it out for yourself. They are known for their easy playability and come in many models and sizes at a fraction of the price because you buy direct.
You did not specify which size of 28 you want. There is a d-28, 000-28, 00-28, 0-28... etc. Youre not giving the details of what you want
