I start this chorus of soloing with a melodic figure that dates back to T-Bone himself, but is heard often in the playing of one of his best-known disciples, B.B. King, as well as Stevie Ray Vaughan: on beat four of the pick-up bar, I play D, E and G, the fifth, sixth and root note in the key of G. On the downbeat of one in bar 1, I play a G7 voicing that is sounded by laying the index finger across the D, G and B strings at the third fret, immediately hammering from the third to the fourth fret on the G string, sounding B, the major third of G; a low G root note is fretted at the third fret by wrapping the fret-hand thumb around the top of the neck. The same voicing is then used for the subsequent C7 chord.

exellent teachen dude THANKS

[Antarblue]

My aopologies Andy. Yer the man. I have the utmost respect for you and I'm grateful to you for the insights you have passed on to me thru your excellent lessons. Your Signature Series Albert King is one of my prized possesions! Peace baby!

[Antarblue]

I have the utmost respect for Andy; I have owned some of his books and a DVD on Albert King. Andy has been a big influence on me. This particular "Power Blues" segment, I feel, though is not up to his usual high standards.

@Antarblue - How much of Andy's work have you heard? He doesn't teach "faux" anything.

[TnTKid54]

for sure it isn't too much of T-bone , and for sure it is SRV style , this is exactly texas flood intro , and i mean that's SRV's texas flood not larry Davis

But that's a good lesson ... so who cares ?

[andyaledort]

antar you definitely seem to be missing the point with these comments.

[Antarblue]

Except for the maj pentatonic this has little to do with T-Bone but everything to do with SRV. Again T-Bone didn't play in the 2nd position., use finger vibrato with feedback, etc. Yer just giving faux Stevie lessons without using his name.
