“This is it this is the place where it all happened. I’ll tell you what you gotta do, you see, you go over there and start playing a piece.” “Why?” “Cuz there’s a fellow I got to see and if you playin it right, he’s gonna come around.” “Right Willie, who is this guy?” “Don’t ask me who, you know damn well who!” “Keep it going you standing at the crossroads now, this is where it counts.” “I thought I wasn’t supposed to go down the crossroads Willie?” “We ain’t here for you, we’re here for me.” “You all need a ride?” “What’s you waitin for huh?” “Cmon Willie, lets get to Fulton’s Point huh.” “What time he comin round?” “ What time who! Comin round?” “You don’t be foolin me! I’m talkin about Legba!” (laughter) “Legba? Where you been slick? He done changed his name to Scratch!” “ I don’t want none of your sass! I got business with the man.” “Mean old bastard!” “Forget him honey, he’s crazy.” “ Now you sure you all don’t need a ride?” “ I ain’t ridin with the likes of you smart ass, nor your bitch neither!” (laughter) “Suit yourself, old man!” “ You lookin for me Willie Brown? It’s been a longtime hasn’t it Willie? “Yes, yes it has.” “ Willie, what’s going on here?” “Yes sir, been a longtime. You were about 17 when we saw each other here on this old crossroads wasn’t it? What can I do for you Willie?” “ I come to sees ya, to tell you the deals off!” “Oh no, according to this here piece of paper the deal’s still on!” “You can tear that up, and give me some peace!” “Now why on earth would I wanna do that?” “You sloughed up on your end of things I didn’t end up with what I wanted. I didn’t end up nothing, I didn’t get nothing!” “You got what you we’re supposed to get blues man, ain’t nothing ever as good as what we want it to be, but that ain’t no reason to break a deal.”
I am glad you find the lessons enjoyable! The guitars in the videos are both National resophonic guitars. The grey one is a 1996 Delphi and the one here is a 2016ish (I forget) Triolian. Both steel body. Both 12 fret scale. The electric in the newest video is a mid 60's Kay customized with a bigsby tremolo. Please feel free to reach out if you have any other questions!
The tuning I have for this and Come On In My Kitchen is from a very highly detailed Robert Johnson tablature book is Eb Ab Eb Ab C Eb with capo on 2nd fret = open A tuning down half step.
You are correct. I discuss matching Roberts pitch shortly in the beginning of the lesson. I teach it in G so it's easier to see on video since I have a 12 fret neck.
Everything is easier if you just sign up at Legba’s Lesson emporium.. We meet here on this old crossroads at midnight. I’ll you need is your guitar and your signature in blood. I’ll I need is your soul, and a six pack of Blood light.

@@thefishinmusician801 thanks will do 👍👍
how did you learn all these old blues songs? it is sooo hard to transcribe because of poor audio quality..
Hi Igor. Sometimes it can be difficult. Most often I just listen close and I usually slow it down. The key is going slow. Just learning one phrase at a time.
Tuning is the first thing before playing, just ring the strings please once to start.
Your talking volume needs to be louder, my phone's on full blast to hear comments, then guitar comes in and wow super loud. Nice video though.
Thanks for you feedback! I hope to have better audio soon.
