Do you just feel it??. Grew up with piano and alto sax. Picked up Dobro. Not good. Just trying. Im a Texas boy. Love that awsome blues twang you have sir.
@@txdean1166 But one guitar tab sheet music, or search for something free online. "tabs" are written on six lines, each line represents each string of your guitar. The numbers on the lines are the frets you hold down. After awhile you get a feel for what chord is in that measure. The musical notes are usually in lines right above the tab line. It's easy to read. Try it once, and you'll start looking for tabs to read.
LOVE IT! One of my dad's favorites. He'll appreciate this! He's bedfast; this will lift his spirit. I showed him your pickin' on "What'd I Say" with the 3-string cigar box and he loved it; another favorite of Ray Charles. Thanks for doing this one.
Thanks Justin. As a guitar player myself, I want to say your blues always makes me feel better when I'm down. I got a woman and I hope she is hearing this while I'm making dinner out here in the kitchen. She has the blues too. Music is the best medicine.
Had the wife in the other room saying "have you got that loud enough?", ( 1/2 volume). I replied if it's too loud, you're too old! Loved it! Great stuff there!
Geez. So glad i came across this musician few years ago. Talented and dedicated is understatement. First video i saw you playin a dam shovel in a park. Now your playin with a killer back drop. You are by far in Your own lane. Well done......again.
1:30 at this moment i was listening this song out loud while smoking and all the people around me looked like they think "wow this man is bloody handsome" thank you for this cover)
Love the sound. Just the right amount of reverb, touch of blues, sprinkle of rockabilly, click a clack.......with the beautiful tn river in the background! Down home! (Guessing it is the tn)
Well... I got a woman, way over town She's good to me, oh yeah Said I got a woman, way over town She's good to me, oh yeah She gives me money when I'm in need Yeah, she's a kind of friend indeed I got a woman, way over town She's good to me, oh yeah She saves her loving, early in the morning Just for me, oh yeah She saves her loving, early in the morning Just for me, oh yeah She saves her loving, just for me Always loves me, so tenderly I got a woman, way over town She's good to me, oh yeah She's there to love me Both day and night Never grumbles or fusses Always treats me right Never running in the streets Leaving me alone She knows a woman's place Is right there, now, in the home I got a woman, way over town She's good to me, oh yeah Said I got a woman, way over town She's good to me, oh yeah Well, she's my baby, don't you understand Yeah, I'm her loving man, now I got a woman, way over town She's good to me, oh yeah Well, don't you know she's all right Well, don't you know she's all right She's all right, she's all right
Excellent choice for today, including the background. Just finished shoveling snow. We received almost 8 inches overnight and most of today. Great sound and great views! God bless.
Wow is all i can say, beimg a fellow guitarist... the ease in which your fingers move with the left and right hands is so much more impressive than the average person realizes.....
I’m way to old to start learning to play the guitar but I’m not too old to enjoy sitting on that deck, admiring the view and loving the music. Thank you Justin!
My God You could have kept a medley going on for the whole day if you wanted to,with this cool rythm!Songs from Ray Charles and other artists, What'd I say,That's Alright Mama or My Baby Left me, Hound Dog,Whole lotta shakin' going on etc.....I wonder what a rendition of "Guitar Man" the version from Elvis would sound like by You!!!!
Thx. jammin,went in my GOOD VIBES & HAPPY SONGS list asap :) Some poor soul voted this down a clear sign we need better mental health awareness ,also played this over the top of Rays version was fun :) Keep rockin Peace. Rick
I first saw videos of you playing the shovel guitar, and wondered what you could do with six strings. Now that I know I wonder why it took that long to hear about you. All of the superlatives aside I enjoy your videos because they feel fun. Thank you.
@Alexis Kyle To this I can only answer one thing - be happy. And don't be confused by the simplicity of these words. With all my heart, I wish you happiness and deep understanding and spiritual unity. You will overcome everything and find new strengthening in your relationship. It is no coincidence that marriage is equated with blood relationship, efforts will only strengthen trust between you. Be happy together.
Since I've been spending time with Justin's fingerpicking DVD lessons and his Hill Country Blues DVD lesson, when I see these new video's it's like a much higher level of enjoyment. I just enjoy watching Justin play and then playing at my own skill level. His DVD's on how to play this kind of music are just the best.
My favorite guitar players that are still alive(in no particular order): 1 Tony Iommi 2 John Frusciante 3 David Gilmour 4 Dave Mustaine 5 Justin Johnson People: Who is Justin Johnson? Me: 😀 I have something to show you. Reasons to love Justin Johnson (in no particular order): 1 He plays guitar as if his fingers are possessed by some bayou deity. 2 The dude is smoother than a bottle of W.L. Weller 12 year old bourbon and he's cooler than Fonzi. 3 He can play songs on a shovel better than most people can with a normal guitar. 4 He has a guitar loft and you can't get cooler than that. 5. He teams up with amazing guitar makers and gives away some beautiful guitars that sound fantastic.
I kid you not. Best jam I have had in years. Playing you in one channel and me with my old cbg glass slide. Epic for this 70 year old fighting end stage copd. Not too shabby for an upland boy.
Thank you for posting on my birthday, Justin! How did you know? LOL....Beautiful rendition! I LOVE the backdrop of the lake! So incredibly cool...Would LOVE to be sitting just off camera ABSORBING these incredible Blues! Magic Man!
Such fabulous playing in a gorgeous sun-filled setting! Man - playing some really tasty licks. Ray would be proud. Great stuff! Thanks for sharing your talents. (Love the stomp box too).
Excellant as always! Please come to Sterling, Colorado when it's safe to hold large gatherings live audience gatherings (Covid-19)...we'd love to hear you play live! Justin you're guitar playing is without words. Thank you for sharing.
I grew up on a ranch in the *quiet* mountains. I've never been an audiophile. "The best sound OF all, is no sound AT all" *_..........Except_*_ _*_for_*_ _*_Justin_*_ _*_Johnson_*_ _*_!!!_*
Man the blues just sings out of you incredible hope you keep inspiring me to be a better all around player I been watching you for a while now love your style never stop my friend
I was hoping this wouldn’t be in standard tuning and I could at least say “oh that’s why he can make it sound like that” but of course it’s not. You’re just that good. Always an inspiration.

Just a man, a guitar, a beer, mother nature, and immeasurable talent.
It don't get much better than that .
translate into hai shi do do (giddy up) and when the volcano blows
Dude does the bass line, rhythm, harmony, and percussion by himself. I can't even focus on all 4 of those at the same time. This dude is phenomenal!
Phenomenal yes. Every song of his that I listen to is my favorite - until his next song.
Welcome to the club gentlemen
Chet Atkins & many other O.G.s pioneered it. Listen to Doyle Dykes,"Jazz In the Box"! This kid is very good!!!
I'm 70 years old and YOU are my hero! gosh
I don't get tired of listening to Justin play whatever he plays, it's been a long time since I enjoyed listening to an artist so much, pure magic.
in the background, Elvis Blue Christmas, perfect.
The way you get that sway and get to grinnin’ reminds me a lot of Jerry Reed. You can tell you’re truly having fun
You know that brotha
He is the one who knows
He'll yeah you got that right brotha
What a wonderful beautiful video and absolutely brilliant playing Justin Johnson!!
BOOOOOOM!!!!🤘🎸🍻🔥🎶
Every guitarist should strive for rhythm and time like this.
LOVE IT! One of my dad's favorites. He'll appreciate this! He's bedfast; this will lift his spirit. I showed him your pickin' on "What'd I Say" with the 3-string cigar box and he loved it; another favorite of Ray Charles. Thanks for doing this one.

Awww baby boy…..you bring me grins and rythym this ‘morn…..this old mama needs..thank you !…. ❤
What exactly do you put on your resume: "guitarist" or "just being cool?"
Both.😊👍😎
Its the same as Samuel L. Jackson. "Bad MotherF**ker"
😂😂😂
Justing Johnson.
CV done.
This is his resumé
I like Blues, Sothern Rock, Rock, Hard Rock, and classic Metal, and Justin Johnson
yeah, you roll I rock on with JJ
Had the wife in the other room saying "have you got that loud enough?", ( 1/2 volume). I replied if it's too loud, you're too old! Loved it! Great stuff there!
Now be kind to your wife. 🤫
If you can hear her it’s not loud enough!
@@Trance4mations dang, I know you get this right my volumne has lowered on this computer.....
Geez. So glad i came across this musician few years ago. Talented and dedicated is understatement. First video i saw you playin a dam shovel in a park. Now your playin with a killer back drop. You are by far in Your own lane. Well done......again.
Justin Johnson is the Coolest Cat in Town... he is in his own Category
@Neils Christensen and definitely, a fav dudester...I tune in quite a lot especially around the Holidays...
That sound makes the whole song float across your mind like the day is coming home right inside your head.
Every time you post I just get more and more amazed
1:30 at this moment i was listening this song out loud while smoking and all the people around me looked like they think "wow this man is bloody handsome" thank you for this cover)
Me and the neighbors absolutely loved it. One of them called the police to complain. They were arrested.
🎸 🤘🏼 brother ✌🏼🇺🇸
😂😂😂👍🏻
Because you made me LMAO. You get my funny of the week award!!!! Here is your trophie 🏆🤣🤣🤣🤣. Thanks for posting. 😀
very happy to hear this
I would loved to have heard Ray Charles sing along with Justin’s guitar playing on this song! He’s an incredible player and smooth as melted butter!
I sure would like to go fishing in that Lake, while listening to Justin perform live
I was thinking the same thing!!
Ya’ll fish whilst I swim that
Love the sound. Just the right amount of reverb, touch of blues, sprinkle of rockabilly, click a clack.......with the beautiful tn river in the background! Down home! (Guessing it is the tn)
Justin, you just keep getting better and better.
Ray Charles is dancing in heaven!! JJ continues to make old songs cool again!!
Well... I got a woman, way over town
She's good to me, oh yeah
Said I got a woman, way over town
She's good to me, oh yeah
She gives me money when I'm in need
Yeah, she's a kind of friend indeed
I got a woman, way over town
She's good to me, oh yeah
She saves her loving, early in the morning
Just for me, oh yeah
She saves her loving, early in the morning
Just for me, oh yeah
She saves her loving, just for me
Always loves me, so tenderly
I got a woman, way over town
She's good to me, oh yeah
She's there to love me
Both day and night
Never grumbles or fusses
Always treats me right
Never running in the streets
Leaving me alone
She knows a woman's place
Is right there, now, in the home
I got a woman, way over town
She's good to me, oh yeah
Said I got a woman, way over town
She's good to me, oh yeah
Well, she's my baby, don't you understand
Yeah, I'm her loving man, now
I got a woman, way over town
She's good to me, oh yeah
Well, don't you know she's all right
Well, don't you know she's all right
She's all right, she's all right
Excellent choice for today, including the background. Just finished shoveling snow. We received almost 8 inches overnight and most of today. Great sound and great views! God bless.
Pickin' an' grinin' lakeside on a sunny day with a beer close by. Can't beat it! As always JJ, excellent stuff. Keep up the good work.
Justin is for real one of the best active blues fingerstyle players on you tube!! an inspiration to myself and others i suspect
Wow is all i can say, beimg a fellow guitarist... the ease in which your fingers move with the left and right hands is so much more impressive than the average person realizes.....
It's more f.cking addictive to watch your videos than Facebook ever was.... Cheers to you fellow picker.....
What a beautiful place to play guitar. Beautiful.
Justin you are the REAL DEAL!!!!!
mighty big Blues train comin through
I’m way to old to start learning to play the guitar but I’m not too old to enjoy sitting on that deck, admiring the view and loving the music. Thank you Justin!
Unless you're currently AT death's door, you're never too old to learn the guitar.
Justin lives in paradise !!!
You are the king of picking
I'm just speechless, speechless !!!
God Bless and Good On Ya Son...
My God You could have kept a medley going on for the whole day if you wanted to,with this cool rythm!Songs from Ray Charles and other artists, What'd I say,That's Alright Mama or My Baby Left me, Hound Dog,Whole lotta shakin' going on etc.....I wonder what a rendition of "Guitar Man" the version from Elvis would sound like by You!!!!
Time to hang out with Justin, listen to the guitar and stare across the water. Life is good.
Never thought I would hear this on guitar
listen to John Mayer's version on his live album TRY! It is absolutely amazing
@@pascalvhv8070 this 100%!! that man is an excellent bluesman as well as a pop icon, a very versatile person!
@@pascalvhv8070 thank you so much for this.
Thx. jammin,went in my GOOD VIBES & HAPPY SONGS list asap :) Some poor soul voted this down a clear sign we need better mental health awareness ,also played this over the top of Rays version was fun :) Keep rockin Peace. Rick
Even the water behind you was jamming with your fab version of this beautiful oldie but goodie!👍👍🍻
I love his guitar skill but isn’t this comment too much?
I went back and looked - you're absolutely right, the water was jammin!
I bet the wildlife were tapping their toes or fins too! Very nice Justin!
Justin really has a gift for taking a song and adapting it to the Hill Country style.
I first saw videos of you playing the shovel guitar, and wondered what you could do with six strings. Now that I know I wonder why it took that long to hear about you. All of the superlatives aside I enjoy your videos because they feel fun. Thank you.
Should check out his 12 string videos!
@Alexis Kyle That is so cool!
@Alexis Kyle
I am delighted, you are smart, and just an ideal wife. Be also frequent further.
@Alexis Kyle To this I can only answer one thing - be happy. And don't be confused by the simplicity of these words. With all my heart, I wish you happiness and deep understanding and spiritual unity. You will overcome everything and find new strengthening in your relationship. It is no coincidence that marriage is equated with blood relationship, efforts will only strengthen trust between you.

Ray Charles. What a beautiful artist to cover. Payed respect to this song perfectly sir
Justin Johnson's music makes the internet a soulful experience.
Impeccable timing!!!! I think the tiny waves in the background are floating at the same tempo
Since I've been spending time with Justin's fingerpicking DVD lessons and his Hill Country Blues DVD lesson, when I see these new video's it's like a much higher level of enjoyment. I just enjoy watching Justin play and then playing at my own skill level. His DVD's on how to play this kind of music are just the best.
P.S. ... that note, that string bend, at 4:37 of this video is my new favorite note...
Yea. You are the king
I love me some Ray Charles and this is one of my favorites!❤️🎼🎸
I think Ray would love it
💜💜JJ💜💜
How can anyone be that good? Must be a gift from GOD
Giving this a like just doesn't get it. We need a golden buzzer!
Got chills thinking about how your guitar styling would have played next to Ray and his keyboard! An amazing rendition! Thanks for sharing
Привет из Москвы! Здорово сыграл! 👍👏
You take a bad day and turn into something great.🎶🎼🎶

Excellent Justin! I'm enthralled by that picking style of yours!
Rockabilly at its finest
Incredible talent. He could play shoe strings and sound good. Who needs a singer.
Beautiful job as always. I've never heard anything you play that I didn't like.
One Smooth Brother!!!🤘🏼👍
Justin never fails at putting a smile on my face!
and I have a mask on as I just rock on with my fav...
@@luluwinke6581 take the mask off, you don't need it. It will only impair your natural breathing and oxygen your brain and body needs.
@@HalfWarrior well so, I am figuring all of that out as I type....my ears are doing well.
I kid you not. Best jam I have had in years. Playing you in one channel and me with my old cbg glass slide. Epic for this 70 year old fighting end stage copd. Not too shabby for an upland boy.
Very nice rhythmic version of that classic tune JJ! Really made my day, thank you....👍👍🎸🎸😉😉
_Bring it on home, Justin, killer good, just mighty fine, as always~peace brother, God bless you and yours~_

The Blues is like a hug from an ol' friend, when your down.
And for that I thank you!
Slick playing, groovy and in the pocket! The wild dog stomp pedal sounds deep!!!
Excellant as always! Please come to Sterling, Colorado when it's safe to hold large gatherings live audience gatherings (Covid-19)...we'd love to hear you play live! Justin you're guitar playing is without words. Thank you for sharing.
Mr. Charles smiles when looks at you, because you're doing what he loved. It's pretty cool.
This made my day thank you

Jaunty playing on a perfectly fall day. I don't think life could get any better! Thank you
LOVE IT! One of my dad's favorites. He'll appreciate this!
Really good...a real pleasure to listen to, nothing more to say
Brilliant Justin, makes me wanna listen to the soundtrack to Ray. Stay safe dude🤘
Justin Johnson and his dancing digits.
