Here's my tuppence: There's a Kiwi that did a slow bluesy cover of Careful With a Fool at a bar in Auckland, NZ a while back. His name is Darren Watson. The video used to be up on YT, but it got taken down. Best I ever heard...
That track is great not only for BB's playing, which is phenomenal, but for the crowd's reaction to the story he's telling with the song. The men are cheering, but the ladies are screaming.
Hi. I’m 61 now and started learning guitar 3 years ago. I was lucky to see BB King twice and got a guitar pick off him over 30 years ago. Last night I heard my neighbour playing BB King and thought I’d try this lesson of yours. I can play it right away and it sounds great! I’m looking at your other lessons as well. Thank you.
Gary Smith thanks Gary! I figured that I should teach the lick since I’ve been stealing it for the last 20 or so years. It’s a favorite song from a favorite album of mine.
First time I see you and loved it. Subscribed your awesome teacher. Thank you for taking that time to explain that beautiful sound . A beginner but you made it fun and easy. Hooked on your Channel now. Lol
Thanks Tommy! I still need to get the Live at the Village Gate version of this song. I looked on Apple Music and they only have a few songs on a compilation album.
Let me know what your favorite Blues intro licks are! I'm always looking for cool new stuff to do lessons on!
Jimi's "Red House" and maybe "Little Wing"?
Fenton Robinson's intro on "Somebody Loan Me A Dime" is awsome. Also his intro to Larry Davis's "Texas Flood" is really cool!
@@abrigospardos Now I've gotta go find those recordings. Thank you!

Yeah. Both this album and “Live at Cook County Jail” give us a little taste of how powerful of an entertainer B.B. was. So good.

That’s awesome! I’m glad it helped! I’m planning on adding more blues lessons this summer once the conservatory I teach at is out of session.
Makes a lot of sense- looking forward to more lessons like this!
smurfco thanks! Any suggestions for topics?
Awesome lesson Mark!
Thanks Tom! I really appreciate it!
formidable , merci
Great lesson, Mark! I was just singing that song yesterday while cleaning the living room.

@@JacksGuitarTrax yeah, Live From The Regal is amazingly good.

Thank you! I’m so glad that you dig it! I need to get back to making videos like this…
Awesome video
Thank you! I"m glad you liked it!
Please give a full transcript of this song including 1st solo😁
Nice!!!

HI , Could you help me how to count rhythm in bar 2 and bar 3
Cool, but playing B.B. King on a gold-top PRS with Railhammers? NOT AUTHENTIC! ;-)
Haha! When have I ever been “authentic”! But did it sound good?
@@JacksGuitarTrax Hell yes, it sounded great!
