It's in two parts: one on the main (tonic) chord while he tells the story. Then he breaks into a standard 12 bar blues pattern -- like @ 3:01. in this case he follows w/ another 12 bar pattern.
When he plays more than that one chord he's in the pattern, it's that simple.
Documents what heroes the Lomaxes were.

hey do you guys know if this a 12-bar blues? I don't think so, but then again I don't really get this 12-bar blues

@CheckOutMyToys alothough I have to admit, I understand your frustration, but I'm not one of those people.

@CheckOutMyToys this isn't a beatles page either, but a lot of people wouldn't know about him if it weren't for that band either. No reason to be hostile.
