nice job bro,.,., thank you for the post.... This reminds me I need to get back on track with this song and actually learn it instead of the way I kinda through it together... ;9)
Very nice! Thanks for using the right chord shapes. The name of the chord is not what matters - it is the notes and knowing when to play them! It would be nice though to have more close ups of your hands though ... if you don't spend a lot of time explaining it that is cool - but we have to see your hands to break it out. Thanks again -
nice blues tone and feel. I could have used a little more explanation on the second time through on the solo backing rythm and the lead riffs, but what can I expect for free?
well i liked how you zoomed in and explained one chord out of all the chords and progressions. it was so great to just guess what the hell else you did from a far away shot where it is not possible to see where ur fingers are.
@RonnieCoakland Quit whining. You can always pay for a lesson or by an instructional DVD. Then you can slow down teh chords to your wittle heart's content.
Hey that chord is actually a M7b5, or half diminished chord. Often used in great west coast blues as well as other Jazz chords such as a 6ths, 9ths, 13ths, etc. They definatley spice up your blues playing :)
Thank you!! I always forget that for some reason...and yet I know that shape, if moved down one string is a diminished chord?? LOL...go figure. Thanks again!
No problem, and ya if you move each finger down a string you get a full diminshed chord! And oops... I ment Mi7b5, not M7b5 :) Diminishd is just a flat 5th, where as half dimished is a flat 3, 5, and 7.
@skydog46 Actually... It should be just a plain ole G9. The way you're playing it, it's technically a D m6, or B m7b5. Try playing either a small G9 by adding the 'G' on the high 'e' and getting rid of the 'B' on the 'A' string. Or better yet, play a G9 by grabbing the 'G' on the low 'E' string, 'B' on the 'A' string, 'F' on the 'D' string, 'A' on the 'G' string, 'D' on the 'B' string. You'll need a partial barre with your index finger to make this happen. This is typical for this song.
In the context of a blues in G its actually a G9 with no root note. Bm7b5 contains the same notes as a rootless G9 but G9 would be the correct name to use as it's treated as the 1chord in a 12 bar in G. No disrespect to the info you gave intended.
Put a G in the bass and you get G7/9. Some people see a Dm6 in this chord shape. But simply think it is a G7 with an added 9 (note 'A') and you're OK.
Great version of this golden oldie. As I told you before, you're tone on the guitar is so nice. I have to shift my fingers to get the tremolo sound, but yours is so natural.

One of my all time favorites from the ABB.
And thanks for mentioning T-Bone... all too often we don't give credit to the root of the music.

that is a G9 (as in (Gdom9), root on 1st string (not played --sometimes played).
same chord different inversion as G9 at fret 10 (strings 5-1 or 5-2; root on 5).
