I had many request for a lesson on this song; The Old School, composed by Bob Margolin who played in Muddy's band.
I rearranged the song and added several elements of other players like e.g. Robert Lockwood Jr.

In this video I'm teaching the introduction.
You can hear the full song here

  • this stuff is way harder than it looks. the vibrato and tone are the most difficult to maintain.

  • You can obviously play, and as a long time guitarist that shares you r love of music, I have just one constructive critisicm. Your playing stands on it's own, but possibly a more patient style of teaching would help you students. I gratefully thank you for sharing this, as I am new to the slide/ Delta blues, and I will be following all of your very helpful knowledge. Thanks again brother.

  • nice stuff my man

  • dobro

  • I play in this delta style, but not as well as you! Lovely, lovely stuff.

  • If you like this you gotta see Bryan Warhall on youtube. He not only plays get down dirty slide but is also a great blues harp player. Just a tip for newbes...glass is better for electric and steel or brass is best for acoustic. Medium gauge strings are better than light.

  • OK open g

  • What key is this played in?

  • Love it

  • GREAT LESSON - ENJOY IT , STILL WORKING ON IT
