We have had requests for the tab for this arrangement. Let us set the record straight. It was a labor of love and is NOT FREE. However, it ain't expensive. It is just $6 from Tim's store.
Serious! I was just peek'n round some corners and I came across this, and I says, what the fuck IS this?! Digs in like a shovel digs a grave for a rich white man in the soft sandy dirt of an old church.
Classic! Some people say Tim plays this way to fast and sure if you want to be faithful to the original then a laid back tempo will do the trick. However, Tim always stressed that he came up with a new angle with this arrangement, a faster, more jaunty ragtime approach which I think is valid. Why should we put the blues in a box and say it must be done this way or that way? That kind of traditionalist thinking is the enemy of creativity and invention.
@rileydd08 That's really a big question. Firstly you need to get really familiar with pentatonic and blues scales. Just google this and you will get a raft of free material. If you want to pay there are some truly excellent video course available at Truefire.com, well worth the money in my opinion. Here's a page truefire.com/blues-guitar-lessons/index1.html And of course listen and watch great blues players.
amazing yes the "whole less is more" argument naysayers talk too much crap
There are countless Piano pieces that are pure TRAD Blues far busier than this as well as faster and this guy works out an amazing arrangement genius . innovation and people trash talk because it's not "slow" and " less is more" Looking at the tab is like a lesson in blues and counterpoint worthy of any instrument and something 99% of blues players could learn from.
any body that says this aint blues is just intimidated by this guys ferocius technique there are many shades of blue personaly i would call this deep blue...but having said that i think one should listen and enjoy rather than trying to classify because its badass...i mean even if it was called polka it still sounds good
......I have just read agwtube's comments at some person who was obviously taking shots at The Mighty Tim Sparks.....I have not yet found that person's orginal remarks, but I gotta say as a guy who has no vested interest in Tim other than having the utmost respect for him as a player. and knowing him somewhat from e mail over the years and studying with him at a guitar week a few years ago.. well.. .the dudes blows pretty much EVERYONE on the scene out of the water.....in MANY genres at that!
Wow, what a lot of B.S. comments about this vid. To say this is not blues is to stand up and declare that you are an ignoramus. The blues is a lot deeper than Stevie Ray Vaughan and B.B. King. Also, the tune isn't too fast - you're too slow.
And to stand up loudly to declare such ignoramnce.
Is this blues ala BB or SRV? Well maybe not. It is much closer to a ragtime or barrel house piano song from the 30s or so. Wish I knew more of those guys. Pat Donohue's Big Blind Bluesy has a similar walking bass line aspect, nodding to the piano.
TIm is basically playing piano on guitar in this one.....more to follow....even learning the first 4 measures has taken a good bit of time.
To respond to a naive comment out there, this IS blues playing. Just not what many associate as faux blues from rock and roll ala Clapton (great player, not a 1st generation bluser though). Listen to some Robert Johnson, or Big Bill. Early blues, real blues, was intricate especially with the coming of ragtime influences.
mehhh. Too many notes. Really intricate guitar playing but its missing some soul. The kinda sounds that want to make you twist your face into weird shapes. Too straight ya know. But then again maybe i just like it a little slower.
@raspat1 I partially agree. What's missing is the blues. This seems to be all technique, which is great by the way, but it is missing the emotion that makes the blues "blue". Just too up beat and happy.
mehhh. Too many notes. Really intricate guitar playing but its missing some soul. The kinda sounds that want to make you twist your face into weird shapes. Too straight ya know.
freakin amazing, I'm learning this one too... got a loooonnnng ways to go after listening to you bro, sure is nice to know that all that practice pays off. Some folk just don't understand...
I'm sure he's well aware of the "right" way to play a Mississippi blues. So what if he chooses not to follow convention? This is a great performance. He can do what he wants, I say.
he doesn't really seem to vary tone or dynamic at all,anyone thinking the same? and it doesn't sound blue played like this - more like a boogie, but thats not a bad thing.
I would agree--too fast. I can see Tim's skilled, though, so it's not 'sour grapes' on my part (I can play it, too, so that helps the criticism). A slower version *would* be more enjoyable to listen to. I wouldn't say those who're saying it's "too fast" are strictly adhering to a dogma, more so simply stating how difficult it is to enjoy something at warp speed which is clearly intended to be played at a lilting pace.
too bad it's a kinda ugly tune, but it does show how to weave in some blues riffs in
the common E key. why you rush it so i've no idea. that flavor of blues should be played to a blues tempo. not dogmatism. e.g. how could you and your partner
Its a totally cool version I'm learning this piece and when I sing it fast it sounds shit .
When I don't sing and work phrases up in tempo it sounds good fast or slow.
On its own as an instrumental I like it faster but with the lyrics due to the story it NEEDS to be slow, check the words out or hear the original and you'll see also if you are learning it sing the first verse while you play it and you'll probably prefer the way you sing and play it as a slower version.

I dunno. Stephan Grossman's version has so much more feel. This is good for the pyrotechnics, I guess...interesting to see what CAN be done with the tune.
Im sitting here thinking how the hell can he be doing this.never have I seen such a display of the Miss. blues.you made that song your own with a flavor unmatched.
Decide which fingers you'll actually use, then go down to the local beauty parlour and get some acrylic nails put on only those fingers. They wear as they grow out, so they'll last about a month - if you're careful with them - they're hard and brittle and so can chip and break. Tell the nail girl what they're for and she'll make them thicker. I've been using them for years. The best solution.
Well, in my case. my wife is a nail tech, but yes - Tim in this vid has them. Check at the local music store and see if anyone knows who's doing them.
ok purists, you have a point on the speed - but consider it a different piece altogether, sit back and marvel. It's ...... fantastic. I have listened to this version a number of times and can't even get close. I love the original...slow and bluesy ----- but I love this too, jazed up and funky......just great, and technically impossible.....except for the talented few. Love the blues.......and the variations.
I like this version, a bit fast but definitely a new take on this song. The tabs are on Sparks website for free, I am enjoying playing it. He adds some new parts which is nice as most everyone else tries to play it like the original, good change of pace.
in my opinion it's a piece of good guitar playing... BUT it have no "blues soul"
