Man, I could listen to this dude talk all day.
Talk??? I could listen to him SING all day!,
Some days I do 😂
Now you can.
I'm sure you do, and beat off
I actually have. He’s epic
OMG who is this guy? Amazing. We need more of this
I mean, it says the name in the title.
@@darthjarjarbinks8953 Maybe it was a rethorical question meaning to say he is amazing, don't u think? :).
Yes.
@@brunosm.l2267 sarcastic UA-cam comments from years ago do NOT age well. I wish there were more videos of Mister Jones.
Unbelievable... I am in awe of this man's skill and talent! Thank you so much for sharing your gift with us!
Greatest Blues lesson EVER.
I love seeing comments four days old on a video from four years ago! ❤. This music is alive.
Blues is the original folk music, music for and by the people. Thank you Rev for putting it out so simply and so passionately for all of us to enjoy! You are a great teacher, speaker, player and historian of the blues!
Agree with the sentiment but the problem with that statement is that blues is barely over a hundred years old and there are types of folk music going back hundreds and hundreds of years
Blues is not a super old style of music. Like later activity said. Folk music dates way before
@IV Ltd first off i didnt say folk music was white music and i nevet said that blues was not folk.
@IV Ltd first off i didnt say folk music was white music and i nevet said that blues was not folk.
@IV Ltd i did not make a distinction between. The original comment said that blues is the original folk, but folk music talks about music that came before blues music too.
I am 47, been playing guitar since I was 18. Im not very good. My favorite music my entire guitar life is the Blues. I now build 3 string CBG's and play with slide. Thank you for these lessons, Son House and Lightnin Hopkins are my favorites. I get a ton from these videos. I learn a piece and the HISTORY behind it. Thank you.
Sir I think I want to learn how to play guitar I play piano but I want to learn sum new any tips?
Never realised that copyright does not exist for delta blues as no one owns the chord sequence. It’s like shareware. Really enjoyed the lesson. Will watch over again as so many tips .
Seriously, the Rev. just taught me more about delta slide than years of watching other videos. And he uses Son House’s Death Letter Blues as an example, which was the first song to ever grab my interest in the style! Thanks Rev.! Hope you can share more in the future.
I could just sit right here and hear him all day long
I want to be able to play and sing like this, with all my heart. Thank you for this video. It meant a lot to me :D
WOW!!! You can fee the blues dripping through his fingers...
This is perfection. Such a wonderful man teaching history within a masterclass. I have been binge watching every single one of Rev Jones teachings. I am so excited and am learning so many valuable lessons. Its easy to listen to your voice bc you remind me of my great granddaddy John Dixon who sang gospel and played guitar. He is who inspired me 24 years ago to pick up my first acoustic.
Wow Latavia...you're beautiful!!
A great teacher we have here , a true store house of guitar blues wisdom.
Not only is he incredibly talented. But he explains it all so well that it's easy to grasp and understand. The background behind what he's explaining is icing on the cake. But close into the lesson incredibly well easing the overall understsnding.
Where was this man 40 years ago,I get everything he says and you start to feel blues brilliant
beautiful singing voice and calming talking voice. few have the gift of being a good musician AND a good teacher. It's all the subtext stuff that makes it easier to understand, learn, and make your own
This man is effortlessly cool
I’ve played guitar for over 20 years and I’m only just starting to understand the complexities of blues like in some of the moves that he’s showing here. The feel is so relaxed and seems understated but it’s true mastery of the guitar. Everything after the early blues is just trying to be those few players from those times. Crazy really. Amazing video
I could listen to this cat talk/play and tell stories for days. What a great teacher. Thank you sir
Thanks Reverend - you explaining that blues is modular, like Lego really made something click for me. You can make a custom car from old parts!
Now that’s what I call playing the Blues
I’ve found my blues teacher!
I think I definitely did too.
♫...The woman I love now
She's five feet from the ground
I said, the woman I love now
Lordy, five feet from the ground
And she's tailor made
And ain't no hand me down
...♫
... thanks man, that always does the trick
Started watching this guy and listening to him talking about these old blues players and their differences and similarities........I was mesmerized. This is absolute GOLD.
This is why youtube is gold. This kind of teaching! Roots and learning
Lessons like this are worth more than money. They should cost your soul .
😉
Very cool lesson..
best thing I've seen in the last 10years
You Sir, are an excellent teacher and historian. I Can't help but sliding around with your teachings. Thanks a lot.
Best blues teacher!!!
The Reverend is in the house. Amazing video. A free masterclass which has just opened up the blues in a way no other lesson ever has. I thank you Reverend Robert Jones and God speed.
Thank you a lot. Since 1985 I had been playing the guitar and blues. But your clarification shed a new light with my pentatonic and drop down D turning.
Absolutely love the authentic vintage tone from his voice is absolutely golden!
This is GOLD!
This ias really good, Blues is the Great Music Ever...
As a lifelong Blues lover, these are some of the best videos on the Blues I’ve ever seen.
Thanks for keeping it simple and intuitive. I will wear these licks out. Thank you for the gift of musical knowledge.
When you’re teaching me old school delta blues and you throw in a LEGO reference you have me hooked. It’s interesting arranging these visually pleasing open tuning licks into my all 4ths tuning.
This made me groan in satisfaction so many times, vibes so good
This man knows what he is talking about. Great, thanks for this!!
Professor Rev Jones
What a great lesson.
Such an amazing lesson
Truly outstanding lesson
Dude!!! This is the best video I've watched about "how to play delta blues"
I'm not playing guitar, but I love that blues guitar history lesson
Please. Keep. Up
The. Good. Work !!!
There are few real blues/ gospel slide guitarist left from the original lineage. reverend Robert is one hes traveled all over the world preaching the gospel of blues .there is a distinct difference between the two and in his own words "they should not be mixed" play one or the other independently .. In reference to a funeral final resting of my two best friends Clarence and Curtis Butler. The Butler Twins for whom he did their Grave site blessing these are two legendary Delta blues men .
Robert is from their era .. Pay attention close study hard hes a master ..
Thank you sir God bless you
Play love your stuff man I absolutely love it… I can listen to this all day and I’m saving up for one of these guitars I haven’t heard music this good in a long long time
Just great Sir Reverend! Simple neat’n great!
Thanks very much!
What a voice!
Excellent in every way. Teacher, philosopher, and historian. Thank you.
Reverend you explain that extremely well. 😮
Sir, you are fantastic!
No scale and no theory just pure soul.
I'm not sure if you understand scales and theory. You are already doing scales and theory no matter what you are doing, when you learn theory you are learning what you are ALREADY doing. This music used blues scales because this music originated blues scales through stuff like what he is playing.
So this is using scales and theory and if you want to understand it musically you should learn the scales and theory, especially the scales are not hard at all.
The primary thing he is demonstrating here is modulation, it's modular because it is limited, I'm not saying that is bad, it's just a different option, but things sound specific (flamenco, vs Delta blues vs metal) because of limitations and restrictions.
Theory just informs you of what you're already doing friend, no need to be scared of it or dog it down.
Theory is the understanding of the specificity of that soul. and it ain't "soul" when you absolutely need a buck and you are sick of playing it, it's knowledge and skill.
Unreal Playing ❤
I’m learning guitar and blues is my home and that’s what I’m trying to learn. This video fed my soul
Blues historian for breakfast. days complete, bless u
Am helping out a friend with agressive Motor Neutrone Disease by taking over 2 of his guitars, and one is a steel, set up for slide, which he'll try to get back to 'normal', because I don't exactly play slide, yet! It's going to be a good ride, Reverend, it's going to be a good ride!
You’re AMAZING!! Thank you Rev, you sir are a wealth of important information and i can’t thank you enough. You’ve helped
Me not only learn the slide a bit better, confused(your right hand is so GOOD!!) and taught me invaluable technique, you’ve taught the so very important history with it!! Please keep it my friend👍😁👍
Thank you, Reverend. God bless and keep you.
Thank you Sir, for that fantastic blues experience !! I wil keep it in my soul !!
Amazing lesson and incredible talent, this lesson flipped a switch for me and has opened the door for me to play these oh so familiar licks. Thanks rev
The blues grabbed your right hand as well?
Great lesson thankyou Rev.

Awesome teacher and performer !!
He makes blues look so easy. Im surprised he knows so much
I learned more in 5 minutes watching this guy than I have in last 5 years. I love the lego metaphor
Rev. Jones reminds me so much of the guy that brought me along on guitar, Stevie Gosnell.
