  • Think it's safe to say that many guitar players love Jimi hendrix's guitar playing. But through teaching guitar I realised that, that style of rhythm guitar guitar really all comes from Steve Cropper.

    Mike has been playing the guitar since he was 12 years old, and from that first moment his love affair with music and the instrument began. Fresh out of school at the age of 16 he attended the Academy of Contemporary Music in Guildford and completed a year-long Diploma course.
    After finishing the ACM his life as a full time musician began, playing in numerous bands and touring up and down the country playing iconic venues such asThe Shepherds Bush Empire, The Astoria, The Underworld and London’s Jazz Café. He’s also been fortunate enough to support industry legends Paul Weller, Blondie and Katie Melua.
    Mike’s session work has led to his working on a variety of projects - from performing with stars such as Ricky Wilson and Diana Vickers, to appearing in many TV shows and adverts. Mike loves being on stage performing, but is equally at home recording in a studio - where he has worked with Alex Von Soos (All Saints, Seal, Atomic Kitten), Mike Horner (The Prodigy, Shakira, Bloc Party), and Mike Chapman (Blondie, Suzi Quatro)

    YES! I know exactly the Prince performance of Cream you're talking about, and I was fortunate enough to see him play that live in concert. I've wanted to learn how to play that way for years. Gotta get me a good guitar teacher...😜

    Booker T and the MGs were essentially the Stax house band. They were also most of the band in The Blues Brothers , Donald Duck Dunn etc (if yiu want to see how to play a bass, Duck Dunn is your man). A lot of that old era had Cropper as a writer, actually the whole band wrote lots of their own parts too. I learnt to ay Cropper songs for our band and it completely taught me a different way to play guitar, it's amazing what you can do with a D shape in different positions (Soul Man)

    I went to a gig at the shepherds bush empire in 1997 with some of the guys who played on a film called the commitments and Steve cropper was playing with them along with another guy from the 60s Sam Moore and it was great to see him play.

    Jimi had a traumatic childhood and after he got his discharge from the Army at Fort Campbell, KY, he didn't return home to Seattle. Jimi and his Army buddy and bass player Billy Cox went to Nashville, formed a band and gigged around Nashville for a year. Jimi has been quoted as saying he learned more guitar in Nashville than anyplace else. That is quite understandable because this style of rhythm playing is nothing more or less than playing basic country/bluegrass licks, which are normally played out of first position, up on the neck as double stops. Steve Cropper has said that he learned a lot from R&B guitarist Lowman Pauling, but Pauling didn't play Croppers' rhythm style. Nashville session man Chips Moman played this style as did Muscle Shoals "Swamper" Jimmy Johnson, so it appears that this style had been around in a previous era and my guess is that it was developed as a hybrid that came out of both black and white churches. But it all grew out of country/bluegrass style guitar. Great lesson, by the way, this is such a beautiful style and every move I learn opens up more ways to play. I grew up in Seattle, my former keyboard player grew up with Jimi and I've known Jimis' brother Leon for forty years. RIP Jimi Hendrix.

    Great point cropper did do some of the hendrix stuff before hendrix. Love those old soul records. Curtis Mayfield also played hendrix style. I read somewhere that hendrix wanted to do an Album with Mayfield. That would have been a good one!

    In the early 1960's Jimi Hendrix was a sideman playing with Little Richard, Isley Brothers, King Curtis ... R&B/soul styles. Steve Cropper would have been one influence but there were others developing that guitar style also. Hendrix integrated that with rock, blues, and beyond!
