Slow Grove Phrasing

[QSQCaito]

Does anybody know the chord progression or where is it from?

[202pdiddy]

Hard to follow because the audio is ahead of his fingers.

[zippoguy101]

Love the king hope he lives for ever he teaches u so much and has so much soul in his music his phrasings amazing would love to watch him play live just once

[Oanofam]

i it based on a song? please tell me its, wonderfull but im too young and dont know that many songs of him

[ryanhashton]

thats some jazzy blues. nobody can phrase like the king. so damn sweet and smooth

[noahwayne]

Liquid Gold.....

[zatoichi188]

I wish the video wasnt out of sync this is a gem

[kungfudragon99]

his fingers look like sausages

[Livinginthemusic1]

@kungfudragon99 that is why it sounds so good! there is weight to absorb the sound and give you that smooth sound. Guitar starts with the hand!

[elroro182]

pause. press 9. epic face

[bailinnumberguy]

You've heard one shredder, you've heard them all. Music is about playing w/ feeling, not how fast you can get through the bar. For my money, BB is the greatest player of them all.

[evangoodlock1]

the timing on the sound is off on this video



[helldemon618]

@evangoodlock1 Or is the video off on the timing o_o ahaaa... the mysteries of life

[SuperRockgod666]

A couple licks in this video just made me go "What?!"

I think he's way better than all those shredder guys.

[kp51o]

@SuperRockgod666 Yes... I also think BB King is better than all those shredder guys...

[XxoMILKMANoxX]

"i feel like im talkin to the person". TRUTH

[spwb2k]

@XxoMILKMANoxX +1...and we hear you, too Riley B!!!

[justsomeguy1001]

I like him BB King more now than before, after watching these videos of yours. Thanks

[CrimBlack]

"...and I have to do a lot of practicing before, y'know, I can just do tunes..." - the King has me spellbound, and it's refreshing to know that the greats need to practice too. :) What a beautiful wee tune.

[94dmfp94]

Thas was just amazing... HE IS THE BEST

[chandrawib]

lemon face, john mayer does that too

[TheBlackxism]

i am a metal fan and accidentally landed here and itz just amazing!

[levlobotomy]

@TheBlackxism

Same here. I think any guitar player who actually likes his instrument feels the same. The man is one smooth motherfucker and it's amazing to see him play right from the heart.

[FallOfTheSun]

This is so damn good! Pity i cant turn my speakers up even higher than they are! =(

[Klynx22]

Might want to add BB King tag and Blues to help people find this, it's a great little clip.

[gongusan]

pause at 2:45 for epic facial expression

[mclrk626]

can anyone please give me the timing of the song know its not 4/4 and also what notes are played PLEASE!

[hailmary7283]

the audio is a little off lol that freaked me out for a second.

[ivegotheblues]

I saw him live in Rome, 13/06/2010.....I Cried.

[arthurklimowicz]

what is the name of this song? I love it!

[HazyDayz04]

@arthurklimowicz it sounds like "Darling You Know I Love You"

[davidtheguitarman]

this man is a great person.

[MrTaills]

The Greatest Blues player of all times.....with no real rival....even tho there are countless great blues players....BB tops them all. Its all from the heart .

[hyde78chan]

I'd rather watch a video like this of B.B. King for hours than an a few minutes of Yngwie's shredding.

[aurezas]

oh mannn that is soooooooo sweet.

[cajun5150]

on my goodness that was wonderful

[bishopfinger]

i really can not believe how humble and nice he really seem to be. and really willing to share what he knows about music and blues. he is a real inspiration. bb IS the king.

[markspeedy07]

BB is a legend and very humble. Can someone tab the notes he played? That was beautiful.

[jellytroid]

@markspeedy07 you cant tab that its not the same

[universalJok3r]

@markspeedy07 you could tab it but it would lose the soul, watch his finger position and try to get the feel for how far up he's bending the notes. its not really something you can just play from sheet.

[Shnuff3]

@markspeedy07

tab??? lol the musics right there listen and learn

[Tbonetardis]

@markspeedy07 - sounds like Ab and mostly the notes are from the major pentatonic (bit of minor here and there too). Try to use your ears from there and see if you can mimic the phrases - honestly, it's the best way to learn the feel of it!

[mrhackcomic]

Lemon Face!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!­!!!!

[locriansrevenge]

is this pure improv? or is this a bb classic?

[locriansrevenge]

excuse me while i walk through central park!!!

[milesrunsthevoodoo]

"...and you hear the notes in your head, as they come out.."

"yes i do."

[locriansrevenge]

i cant believe this, this is so valuable !! that phrasing is just simply amazing,,,so smooth and personable.

[KARLIJIM]

So glad you posted this third vedeo of the master. unfortunately, the sound is out of sync with the video. Hard to learn from this. but sure great to listen to.

[SuperLuigirules1]

Really a true great!

[superagnitio]

oh wow, definitely great phrasing
