Of the many renditions of this piece this one has to be the tops. Well played.

[@FririkurEllefsen]

The best version of this I've ever heard. Maybe a tiny bit fast. The guitar sounds great too.

[@TCGUITAR]

Yes , I do lessons. You can start by checking the tabs which are available from my web page or try the Roots, Rags and Blues course from Truefire.com. The link is in the info on the video.

Beautiful !!

[@llanbradach]

Great playing, sounds brillliant

[@pinanjos]

You are an amazing guitar player! I'm an amateur musician, whose style is more focused on the Jazz and the Bossa Nova Brazilian, but I confess that when I watch your videos I was willing to buy an acoustic guitar just to play this Mississippi Blues. If one day I go to the U.S., I'll go to a concert of you, that's for sure!

[@pachacamacs]

That is an absolutely brilliant version of the song, the best I've ever heard. I saw you perform this in Brussels yesterday... I think Willie Brown was looking on from his little cloud in heaven and smiling :-)

[@BayouDrank]

He was my guitar professor--fuckin bossest dude EVER. I just played my favorite metal songs and he'd go "Tight shit..."

[@Guerguero]

Congratulations you are a great guitar player, good bluesman

[@vislandblues]

inspiring,wow this guy is perfect!!

[@chambana77]

flawless, brilliant!!

[@guitardan102938]

amazing!

[@johnjackson3735]

Incredible smokin' blues. I love the way you cook with the solo and the deep bends up high on the fret board and keep the base thumping heavy. Like Churck Berry on psychedelic steroids. This and your version of Jelly Roll Blues played the same night are absolutely phenomenal. Gutsy, soulful and blazing.

[@Sgourelis]

Just great Tim!

[@Vreci]

It is amazing !
You can play every style (classic, balkan-music,....) totally perfect !
You are great !
Thanks for sharing your music on YT !
cheers,

Thanks for your comment. This is my variation on the version by William Brown, which has been covered by Stefan Grossman, Johnny Winters, Clive Carroll...lots of nice renditions on youtube.
You can get tabs or DVD from the links in the info above.

[@sugardaddybroker]

[@WillFlyGuitar]

Hi Tim - cracking version of this piece. Loved it!

[@DubdorfUMMMMA]

Wow Tim... you never cease to amaze me. I hope everything's going well for you and thought you may like to see what I've been up to since our lessons ended. It's not nearly as tight as when you play it but I gave the blues my best shot. I hope you like it : )

[@JoelBiger]

Great !

[@Teseoguitar]

Hello Tim! I own the DVD of your concert with Franco Morone ... you're great! I just downloaded your pdf version of Mississippi Blues and run to study ... thanks for everything!

[@jonathanboudreault]

This is just awesome Tim!

[@manicmechanic76]

well done man.

[@texas77581]

Hi there Michaleen, I didn't mean to be offensive I have said that he is better than me, and that he is technically brilliant so I hope that is complimentary rather than derogative. Some musical interpretations move me more than others and whilst this is amazing in it's own right, I stick with my opinion, which is only my opinion. I thank you for your comments, which of course reflect your opinion and it is this difference of opinion that makes life interesting. Take care and very best wishes.

[@clyde36s]

killa skillz i like the song to

[@LiveAndInPerson]

When are you coming to Santa Barbara???

[@Qpidon]

a "Shmuck" rated this three stars...some people realy dont have any idea. 5 from me.

[@chezruss]

sorry meant right hand palming - to get a better definition between bass and treble

[@timsamuels1971]

That was fucking just incredible......... :)

[@bulbish]

hey what kind of mic is in that guitar?
sounds really good!

[@LiveAndInPerson]

Awesome!!! Tabs???

[@chezruss]

i have to agree - having just bought the truefire dvd, i m disappointed. for a more musical interpretation see Stefan Grossman plays "Mississippi Blues" 1981.
other thing i notice is Sparks doesnt palm with left hand.

[@49mrjd]

there must be a taxi waiting outside

[@sapola57]

Do you give lessons?

[@guitarsalert]

tabs?

[@j3ohnny]

[@DieHenneify]

[@mufasamusic]

[@DeltaLou]

sounds like a piano

[@texas77581]

This guy is technically brilliant but it's a bit mechanical and just lacks a little feeling. I don't think blues should be played so strictly, but hey he's better than me so what do I know? Check out the version of this by Stephan Grossman and you will get a whole different feel/

[@rbhyland]

Astounding technique, but played too fast. This should have a relaxed party-in-the-Delta feel. Check out the original from Willie Brown.

[@felineth56]

excellent playing,but way too fast!!
