[TheMrLandon]

Probably a good thing the ratings have been disabled for this video. Saves me the trouble of creating 20 different accounts so I can give that many thumbs up to it.

Great, great stuff here and many thanks.

From an exiled Geordie living in Holland, thanks for the lessons. I,ve learnt more from watching you than I have in the last ten years, spot on mate.

Thanks alot. I have had trouble with the intro done by Keith Richards, this helps understand it. Keith does it in G. Thanks again, appreciate the lesson and explaining what chords he was playing around.

[volosr]

a perfect lesson...thanks a lot!!!!....

please give us a lesson with the "Crossroads"of Robert Johnson in fingerstyle...

[deltabluestips]

@volosr I have already done CrossRoad Blues the robert johnson way. It's part of my archives.

at least, this version sounds good without a band and it's close enough to R.J.

Overall critics of mine in the past - all that beginnerstuff you started up with in the recently younger past - is done by so much guitarplayer on the net already and I'm happy to see you turned back to the roots and not to the beginning "how to play a E7 chord", which might be helpful for a starter - however, thanks for sharing this wonderful peace of music.

@tom14854 Hi Tom, It actually sounds nothing like the Robert Johnson version. This is an easy option for the new player to try to get his or her head around. I try to include the beginner in a lot of my work and always will do. But thanks for the comment.

Good stuff, rock on Uncle!

[EDDIEJAMES238]

Great work Ed I just love it cos it keeps me picking.

stones version is better. Clapton is a poor man's rolling stone.

[jiros00]

@colemckelviedotca Everyone's version is poor compared to the original Robert Johnson. Bitch to play tho'

[colemckelviedotca]

@jiros00 I actually think the stones version that's on the "Stripped" album is better. But don't get me wrong, RJ is the originator and can never be topped. Not even by Mr. Richards.

[psychoticgoldphish]

@colemckelviedotca Clapton is a poor man's Rolling Stones? He's a solo artist, they're a band, without each other, Mick Jagger and Keith Richards would likely have remained unknown, Clapton has been on his own for nearly 5 decades. Don't get me wrong, I love the Stones, always have, but your statement is complete bollocks.

[CletusColtrane]

@psychoticgoldphish

Lol, yep, I think he got it the wrong way. Clapton is the blues. Stones hover around the blues.

[purelypygmalion]

Absolutely fantastic. I love it.
