  • aw crap i had a sleep and woke to her still talking!!!!

  • @mitchmc1000 Sorry the blah blah was driving you nuts. Point taken. All these videos are really basic with a bunch of explaination for people who are just starting out. In the future I'll try to put the actual playing part in the front for the people who don't need all the walk through. They just need to see it. Sorry for making you pass out in boredom. :)

  • what's the name of this riff

  • Hi Vatoloco... sorry it took me awhile to reply to your comment on the video. It doesn't really have a specific name. There are various blues rhythms that show up in a bunch of songs and this is one of them. In these videos I tried to give you guys some basic things that you could play with. I'll probably do some more advanced ones in the future... thanks for visiting. :)

  • lol blabla really horrible! It was just in honor of your screen name ;) Actually it does have a music term too in blues they call that a call and response... where the guitar will play something and then the voice or the guitar will sing or play something back in response. Thanks for stopping by. Remember to insert your own blah blah in the right places.

see all

  • Thank you so much! Wonderful teacher!

  • For the 5th video, you just need to move quicker, but good material! :) Grade: A

  • @mitchmc1000 lolololol!

  • sound like muddy waters hoochie coochie man?

  • Very nice basic foothold on the blues Thank You so much!

  • just one thing to add; the "open" is actually the middle notes of an open G chord. So it's E-A-G-A for all you vatolocos who might wonder.

  • E AAA open E EE EE, E AAA open E EE EE

    thanks, that helped me learn it better.

  • its the hoochie choochie lick:p
