ur great x

before i can say i own a guitar.. I MUST BE ABLE TO PLAY THIS SONG!!!

[jACK360i]

following up from before.. still trying to learn it.. lol i put a lot more effort into it... practicing the chords..but i could not follow however just by listening to the song over and over pause and play i figured out how the first two chord go.. but i am having problems picking the alternate bass with the first three strings.. but thats my inexperience with time i will get it. What you can do to help me is perhaps a more detailed explaination into picking the chords and the order to pick them

[jACK360i]

@jACK360i would really love to learn this song from you.. ive made it a goal during my apprenticeship in guitar training.. a must before i can declare myself as a guitarist!!! that means before i can say hey i can play guitar or even further before i can say hey i own a guitar!! I must be able to pplay this song

[jACK360i]

so is it possible to get this a little bit slower? im a beginner.. trying to learn

[jACK360i]

ok so i was looking for another song called empty the pockets.. to be honest i didnt know that song.. but im a young aspiring guitar artist.. lol pretty much im now learning.. and i chose a random song to learn because the song i knew were a wee bit discouraging.. so i came on this song which apparently was a tutorial.. so i viewed it.. its pretty nice.. see most of the song nowadays the guitar part is a bit repetitive this is a nice song to learn so i am going to tackle it... i shall learn this

Thanks so much Will. I started off with "Hesitation Blues" and have been having fun playing along to "Empty Pocket Blues." I've turned my friend onto your site. Thank you so much. It's terrific.

thanks, nice song, nice performance. I could not found the lyrics on internet. Do you have a link? What you song was the whole song? Greetings from Holland.

[HenfieldWill]

Yes - the two sung verses are the whole song. :-)

[fredt07]

Thanks Will, another excellent lesson. I am going to have a go at this one, after I've mastered "Crazy".

[EdMichigan]

That looked complicated, but i cant play guitar,i cant even play the A note! lol, ive long fingers so youd think i could do it, but sadly i cant, haha jealous!

i can tell this must be a favorite of yours, and i dont know why but i always thought of you as being american, you have that americanised look about you,Birthplae of the blues !

[HenfieldWill]

I love both American and British music equally. I saw Big Bill Broonzy in Bristol, UK around '57, and the Rev. Gary Davis in Manchester, UK, in 1964! :-)
