Thank you, Kirk. Just wanted to let you know that when people sign up for our lessons, we always ask who are their blues influencers/idols, and your name comes up a lot. Just came up this morning with a new student of ours from California.
@@chicagobluesnetwork8468 Thats wonderful, Im truly happy that you all at Chicago blues network are doing these lesson's! The list of players are all Top Notch!!!! Love from Switzerland
You betta watch out there how you drive that Cadillac there! I'm tellin' you... ain't that a fine machine!? Nailed it from the git, man... thank you for picking one of my favorite songs to listen to, to start out with and dissect/run through this week, Johnny... aside from the overdrive, Willie Johnson has a such a unique 'feel' and I didn't realize a lot of that was letting those notes hang like that and his use of those jazz chords. I have only scrubbed this so have to return and re-watch as with all your lessons, but wanted to thank you as always for taking the time to put these sweet lessons on the best of players, together for the rest of us peasants.
Same year as “Rocket 88,” which gets all the press for having slightly thin and sizzly tone. Meanwhile Willie’s overdrive on “How Many More Years” is intentional, and so juicy
Willie Johnson is so massively under rated. goes not get the recognition he deserves. wonderful feel & sound. just amazing.
Not that he needed it or anything, but Willie Johnson added even more fire and intensity to Howlin' Wolf's early sound. Great breakdown. Thanks!
This was awesome!! The Wolf sides changed my life!

That first moaning at midnight has to be the first distorted guitar on record

That was fun!
