Oh My God...You dont understand, I've searched the whole wide world for a guitarist of your calibur. You'r like nothing I've ever heard before in my life. And it was said, that on the 7th day he created this man we see before us, And on the 8th, he broke the mold.
with slide you usually tune to an open chord, blues is mainly E and A, with some cool variations such as open D with the high B and E both tuned to D. This sounds good playing indian style stuff. Hope it helped.
Dude that was wicked. Do you know a man named Derek Butler? He has a tune kinda like that. Anyways, props on the platying and do you think you could get my some tabs for that>? Thanks, and Peace. -Matt
Good job on the Robert Johnson tune. Loved the harmonics you played at the end. Also was done my Led Zepplin. Keep playing, you could devolope it into something good
You're really good with the slide. Its a little bit repetitive but I guess you'll have to slide a lot with that thing in you hand the whole time. I love this style. Good guitar playing!
this comment was not about the name of the song or writer ,just an encouragement to other blues players to keep the BLUES ALIVE!!!!! REGARDS BLUESPOWERS
I agree totally, guitarists can be right up their own arse sometimes, playing the same old hair metal solo stuff time and time again. Good to hear some variation.
i'm such a big fan of REAL blues music.. robert johnsan style i love it dude.. nice ot hear it done properly as well.. i'm learning slide it's fucking difficult dude well done!
@Het81: It's not "hating", it's called creative criticism, and most artists prefer it over "man!! dat wuz gr8, u rul!!1" droolings. It's not like he insulted the guy, or said he crap (like a lot of real "hating" comments on YT) he offered ways to improve his playing... and that's fine by me.
Eric plays slide alright, its just not his forte. you have to work with slide a long time before you can really single string pick, cut out all the backgound neck noise etc. it is very Zep similar tho. nulling the strings at the bridge with right hand would be a start..then half-claw finger style (like DA) is where you wanna go...as to the timing/ all my vids are off synch, don't know why, they just are. blurry or not thats him playing.
I love how musicians ALWAYS want to hate on each other. "This should be tighter", "that should have more oomph" Eric Clapton could post a random vid on here and people would hate on it.
Everything is there except a dominate right hand - alot of that should be alot tighter - maybe practice with a click track or a metronome - all of the elements are there - needs to be tightened up a bit - sharper attacks and endings
nice job, and way to go with the zep. excellent choice, but i urge you to dsig deeper (if u havnt already) and check out some of the original masters like Robert Johnson, Charely Patton, how about some son house?
why does everyone have to knock people on this site. it's not like a competition, just a place to share videos, some ppl just need to get over themselves
Personally, I have heard better its not clean its all bundled up and messy in my opinion..... Don't get on my ass because I am not gonna lie and say he is the best.
I really enjoyed your slide technique! Someday when I learn to have patience I'm going to try it! Joey Vaughan "World Blues Attack"
