Hey amazing piece u did right here. i was wondering what kind of tips you would have for someone JUST learning slide, or if u had any references u used when learning thanks!
Really doesn't matter. Though, I would say learn on an acoustic first. I say that just because acoustics are harder to fret (hold the chords) than electrics and such. Other than that, guitars are all fundamentally the same.
@CaseyColtlol I started with Bad like jessie james by john lee hooker. I'm formally deaf and have been a number of years. I got a cochlear implant to restore my hearing june 15th 2011, and I have just fallen in love with the delta blues. If a deaf guy can play dem blues then you can play anything!!!!
I met two of Muddy Waters sons at Ground Zero Blues Club in Clarksdale MS. I talked with them for about a half hour after the show. They are really down to earth kinda guys. I'm sure they would like this video too. Great job
dont get me wrong, im not racist or anything... but have you noticed that all people who play the blues in youtube are white ? can anyone tell me why ?
I can hear some Muddy Waters- Mississippi Blues . and some Robert Johnson -Crossroads there buddy :X u play good ... try combining some Muddy Waters and John Lee Hooker and see what happens :)
this one really looks like "walkin blues"... but there are many blues songs which tune looks like others, only lyrics changes! but whatever, you play really well :)
awesome job! Makes Blind Lemon and Son House back there proud.. (I might be wrong about the 2nd pic, might not be Son House)... anyway, enjoyed your pickin' Thanks!
@fpballer34 That type of slide guitar is a Louisiana slide guitar and I know I like it too. It's not one were u can hook it up to a amplifier or hook it to a DI box.
I tip my hat to you sir, that was as fine a delta blues piece as I've heard. Respect for that, and for the time you must have put in studying this music. Very fine.
Blind Lemon Johnson - came close but never quite made the big time. Songs that never quite became classics include See that my Kitchen is kept clean, Intersection blues, White Snake moan, Good luck blues, etc
I was just stumbling over your video, trying to find lessons for how to play like Robert Johnson, and I gotta say, you rock! Or should I say, "you blues!"...lol. Anyways, thanks for making a video that CAN make me understand R.J.'s way of playing, even though you may not have intended this as a lesson video
Man...I could only dream of playing like that...I'm 15 right now, still learning the basics...My friend is pretty amazing himself, he only plays half as good as you, lol. How long have you been playing? I want to learn this no matter how long it will take me, lol.
I started at 16,so you're well ahead now. The important thing is to play every day and to listen to the music you want to play (that's half the battle).
There's plenty of teaching materials available now so that's a plus too.
Blind melon Jefferson would be proud
