i knew brownie, sort of. my co-worker kept inviting me to his neighbor's & i went to mcghee's after work. women in hot kitchen cooking soul food, us in living room listening to brownie playing walking bass lines stuff on huge gibson between glurps of scotch on ice, then he played dinky martin, and back to gibson while we were awe struck. in oakland/berk flatlands border late 60's
Lucky bastard.. 🍺
Brings back memories, Sonny Terry and Brownie Mcghee at Tabacco Road blues club in downtown Miami in the early 70's 👌
Hello.
I'm Eduardo, I'm 65 years old, I live in Barcelona (Spain) and I'm learning to play the guitar.
I really like your videos, your guitar lessons.
I think you are a great guitarist and a wonderful teacher.
I have subscribed to your classes and I am learning a lot.
I wish you good health, much happiness and a long life with your family.
Thank you very much, you are a very valuable person.
Eduardo.
Hey Eduardo, I know this text is two yrs late but I'm almost 65 and started a few months ago! I did have some piano and a couple other instruments but I never learned theory! I'm arthritic mostly in my left hand unfortunately. Anyway good luck and stick with it! These are some great learning tools presented on this channel!!
That's a treat! I love the blues. I've learned most my blues tips from your lessons. Thanks Rob! 🎶🎶🎶
Thanks Rob, found an old Sonny Terry and Brownie Mcghee album amongst my Dads collection when I was in my late teens, and fell in love with it and them. So its great to see you dropping them into your lessons every now and then, gets me a "Whoopin an a Hollerin" ..keep em a coming. Cheers 👍👋👋

What a great tribute to a great guitar player more people should know....fantastic lesson
Absolutely, in my opinion he was one of the best. I’ll be adding a few of his tunes to the channel for sure.
Awesome
Man I think your videos are awesome. I’m 58 and have been playing for 15 years. Love to keep learning. I love this routine. Mid part is a little tricky so that’s been fun. Wouldn’t this resolve better on 10th fret D than on the B on 7th. It just sounds better to my ear. Curious if any one noticed this.
nice!
I don´t know how i got here but i´m glad that i did
I have seen Brownie and Sonny at least a couple of times. Many years ago I saw them at Macabe’s a guitar shop in Santa Monica CA.they have a performance space in back and it’s not very large. I also saw them at The Lighthouse a very famous jazz and blue’s club on the pier at Redondo Beach. When they took their brake my two friends and went upstairs to meet them. Sonny who is blind was talking to us and he pointed in the direction of my two friends and said you guys are twins and they were they were identical twins and Sonny heard that when they spoke. Thenn the bouncers showed up and started escorting us out the door. That started a ruckus a big one
Please teach Hippopotamus song, Rob! Thank you so much!
Could you please do a video on Coldplay Yellow? Thanks for all the videos!
Excellent playing sir😂
Супер! Спасибо!!!
Luv the blues, folk, jazz!
Can you please look at doing a lesson by McCartney; Jenny Wren. Lovely acoustic I'm dying to learn. Thank you so much, luv your channel.
Hello again! I use your videos for all of my guitar needs. Anywho, could you possibly make a video on the song, “Dos Aruguitas” ? It’s from Encanto and the English lyrics are just as beautiful as the Spanish. If it’s anything like your other Disney covers it’ll probably do very well!
Eleonor rigby guitar lesson!
Good day Rob! Can i request CSN "Just a song before I go" rhythm and lead part. Thanks!!
Rob -are you getting that muted sound on the bass notes just with your right hand?
Ok super jste Jednička Kamaráde\
maráde.
W0W!
Is your guitar a Lag Hivybe ? How do u like it ? Thx 🙏
NICE GUITAR. WHAT KIND IS IT
SONG FOR THE ASKING - Paul Simon Please
Ok Jste Super
Thank you very much, it is the perfect challenge for me. But I cannot repeat the first lick in rhytm, how should I count it? Could anyone help? I'm always one beat late with the shuffle and cannot figure out where I lose time. Again: how should I count it?
Cześć Rob, skąd się bierze dźwięk G tam? Where does the G sound come from? It's not part of the E maj pentatonic, is it?
Excellent work!!! What are the chances of teaching us "Rainy Rainy Day"? The Angel Heart version by McGee...
Thank you for all your work!!!
Is that a hyvibe guitar,never seen one before with the fret markers, which model is that?
Hey Tony, those are actually fretboard stickers that I ordered off Amazon.
@@swiftlessons ahhh cool , good to know, I have no clue as to why they left out the fretboard markers, especially for teachers like yourself who needs to show their students where you are at on the fretboard
Surper ce blues Merci ! Dommage qu'il n'y ai pas de pdf
Sounds a lot like Hideaway by Albert King
Tip....everything was fine fine ,I've got just come back to my guitar ,,and can't move my fingers,,I went cycling last night,its amazing hope much muscle memory goes AWOL..just got through using gears and breaks..beware!
Hey friends, in today's lesson I'm playing a rather impressive guitar in the LÃG Tramontane with Hyvibe - Learn more at: @t
Very good really enjoyed it but speaking as a beginner some of the licks /chords scare me half to death would like to have seen a simple version of the same tune to feel yeah OK at least I stand half a chance as at min I more towards well perhaps I'm not quite ready for that just yet usually when see a bar I run a mile
How about teaching God And Man
I have a message that I’m sharing where I can, some may not want to hear this, but I ask that we stay polite and seek truth together. 😊
.....
Love is an action. Feed the hungry, house the homeless, father the orphan, and protect the defenseless and vulnerable.
Read the Word for yourself, not only relying on others for guidance. Pray for guidance.Yahushua/Yeshua - His Hebrew name who is usually called (Jesus) taught to keep the whole Word. Including the Law/Torah. Matthew 5:17 “Do not presume that I came to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I did not come to abolish, but to fulfill. 18 For truly I say to you, until heaven and earth pass away, not [g]the smallest letter or stroke of a letter shall pass from the Law, until all is accomplished! 19 Therefore, whoever nullifies one of the least of these commandments, and teaches [h]others to do the same, shall be called least in the kingdom of heaven; but whoever [i]keeps and teaches them, he shall be called great in the kingdom of heaven." Read 1 John. John tells us that sin is lawlessness, and that we must keep the commandments. Trust in the atonement of Yahushua/Yeshua who is usually called Jesus, and keep God (YHWH)'s whole Word/commandments. Revelation 12:17 So the dragon was enraged with the woman, and went off to make war with the rest of her children, who keep the commandments of God and hold to the testimony of Jesus. Revelation 14:12 Here is the perseverance of the saints who keep the commandments of God and their faith in Jesus. Go to parableofthevineyard youtube channel for information about the bible and good bible studies. I'm in no way paid or sent by him for advertising. I just have learned a lot from his content. He's just a man who is trying to learn as well. :) Yeshua died so we may be resurrected to eternal life.....
Rob, your website is full of redirects and booby traps. I presume that you've been hacked or your site picked up a virus. Even when I try to log in a redirect sends me to a bogus Norton site. You're welcome to delete this. I have no other way of contacting you right now but thought you'd want to know.
Hey Rob, thanks for the heads up. Are you referring to my website or my Patreon page?
@@swiftlessons Hey Rob. Just logged in and moved around with no problem. Thanks for the quick fix! Feel free to hide this or delete. No sense in scaring the pickers and pluckers! Have a great holiday!!
@Swiftlessons....Disappointing. Brownie used a pick 0% of the time. I’d have thought you’d at least make the effort,
I already have a whole ten part series dedicated to mostly fingerstyle solo blues guitar, in it you will find a ton of licks that are borrowed from Brownie and similar players.
As for this lesson, I usually use a pick, so adapting some of his licks and rhythms to a picking technique has been important to my development as a blues player. If you don’t find it useful, then you’re more than welcome to request a fingerstyle follow up, nicely.
@@swiftlessons Thanks for your response, it shows a lot of class, man. I was rude, and I apologize..... I learned several of his songs many years ago from a guy named Happy Traum...so I’m always on the lookout for his stuff. I came with expectations (always a mistake) of you playing fingerstyle, to compare how your rendition of “Brownies style” compared with mine. You’re very talented, and again, my apologies. ✌🏼
