I bought three of Cory's guitar lessons on True Fire. They were a pivotal point in my guitar playing. I was so frustrated with blues rhythm lessons until I discovered them. Now we get these great TH-cam videos for free. I'll definitely be purchasing more videos in the future and appreciate all of this free bonus content.
I grew up with Live Wire Blues Power, one of my desert island ten for sure. Thank you Corey for this super visit with Albert!! More visits with this King would be great.
That was a great lesson I grew up listening to all the GREAT blues guitarist. I ‘m 76 years young and still learning the blues. So many great guitarists and harmonica players. Thank you
You're a great teacher for as accomplished a player as you are!!!🙏🙏🙏 I've also noticed how good of a phraser you be are ; which drew me to your channel!!! Keep doing what you do; it's appreciated!!!🙏🙏🙏🙏
I have looked other sites trying to learn more about Albert King and his style! I am telling you now you are spot on! The phrasing, sound and spirit is with you when play! I've listened to SRV and Albert King in the session they did together! As soon as you started to play in your video I knew I was in right place to learn how to play Albert King style! You nailed It! Thank You
Corey, awesome lesson, thank you! The great Albert King is probably the most difficult style guitarist to teach. Lans Lopez can play with that feel very well.
Just came across these lessons, great teacher!! I've been playing 30 years and I love his down to earth style and passion for the blues! Hail to the King!!!
This is great because I have been playing left handed upside down for more than 50 years. This is a good way to explain phrasing, which in the blues, creates distinct styles and sounds in the individual player. I met Albert in Santa Cruz, Ca., back in the mid seventies, when he played at the Catalyst.
I have enjoyed everyone of your presentations. I have learned so much from your channel that I decided jump right in and get your lessons on your website. Your love for the instrument is contagious.
I stumbled across you on TH-cam last week and purchased your blues rhythm course last night. Just wanted to say thank you. This is the content I've been looking for!
Thanks for another great lesson Corey - much appreciated! I had the pleasure of producing a show with Albert King in Scotland in 1992. We had a good house and he played great, of course. Sadly he was to die just a few months later at only 69. RIP Albert.
coreycongilio Thank you, Corey! Could you please say more about course where you explain this topic? Two weeks ago I started with “Solo Factory Texas Blues”. It’s a real breakthrough for me! And I planned go with “Hip Blues” next. But if you have some courses where you explain how to combine a minor and major scales, I will purchase it right now! Thank you!
These are some of the best instructional videos I've seen on TH-cam, your TrueFire stuff is top notch too - really enjoying your trading solos course! Absolutely killer player too
If I may add a small tip, for Albert style help to pluck the E string while bending the 4th degree of the pentatonic to either the perfect 5th or the sharp 4th, using the ring finger on the right hand instead of use a pick . Great lesson !!!
Man that SG sounds great! There are couple of videos of Born Under A Bad Sign live and Albert uses these phrases on almost all the call and response with the vocal. Classic. Thanks for the lesson!
If you put a gun to my head, 'I'll Play The Blues For You' might just be my all-time favourite album. That's not favourite blues album, that's favourite album period.
I love the “Albert king box” but I ripped off Clapton, and play a lot of Albert King licks in the “Clapton box”. I am not ashamed or scared to hang in minor pentatonic or the “boomer scale” I love it, it always works and always pleasing to the listeners ear, rather they play or dont, if it sounds good it is good. When I figured out relative minor, and adding some chromatic tension, playing major and minor together mixing it all in its all sweet BBQ sauce for the soul man.. Great great lesson here. Really good look into “less is more” and phrasing and voicing, great first step into that style man. Really great job. I never took lessons, I wish I had, but kind of glad I didn’t, in a way.
I know a guy that can shred in major pentatonic (that's certainly not me), but he got of the podium after our performance and refused to jam along with us (songs like Texas Flood) bc he had no idea how to do it. It's amazing, the difference between musicians.
His other killer bring it home lick is the descending g,d,c,b flat,g cut back to b flat back down to,g, dd his classic sort of turn around ending his i, iv, Mahor chord playing the mIII, then to dominant 7 on the 5th which is designated ss v7. Brilliant take on predictable blues making it Interesting and unpredictable. Great break from Boring all dominant 7 chords on the I , IV, V classic blues formula.
Hi Corey, I really enjoyed this lesson. I definitely need help phrasing and using a minimalist type approach. My scales sound a bit mechanical. Could you do more Albert King style lessons and perhaps eventually mixing major and minor, using 3 notes? Love the Albert King stuff!
Your lessons are presented in such a way that makes it perfect for studying. I really appreciate what you do, man! You’re one of my favorite players!
This three-string style is a great introduction to lead into other strings. Keep it simple!
Great lesson Corey, this helped me immensely. I love simple concepts that sound like a million dollars and Albert King was the best at it.
Just broke the E string doing those bends and it felt real good thank you!
Albert King is my favorite blues guitarist.I had the opportunity to see him play in concert in 1990.He was great.

Love your channel Corey! I always learn so much about pedals or guitar licks, thanks for putting this out there
What a beatiful instrument you have
I grew up with Live Wire Blues Power, one of my desert island ten for sure. Thank you Corey for this super visit with Albert!! More visits with this King would be great.
Will be doing more Albert for sure!
Wow someone who knows about music and makes it understandable. Thank you.
Another killer lesson, one of the best educators out there.
His "Blues at Sunrise" is the perfect live album. A true master!
I love his life albums butt Live Wire Blues Power is as raw as it gets, and the Wednesday Night/Thursday Night In San Francisco albums as well.
That was a great lesson I grew up listening to all the GREAT blues guitarist. I ‘m 76 years young and still learning the blues. So many great guitarists and harmonica players.
Thank you

Wow, thank you!
When You were counting, to me that’s the key .. not trying to just hope u are in time .. Amazing teaching Corey!
Yes Corey! Preach 🙌
great great attack on relatively simple notes, phrasing is everything and yours is great.
I definitely think this is one of the best channels on TH-cam for guitar lessons.
Very tasty player.
Corey, your passion for guitar, knowledge of blues and amazing playing are truly inspiring. You make a person grab his guitar and practice. Thanks!!!
Ah that’s very kind. Thx!
King Albert at his best, great lesson Corey.
Thanks so much!

I appreciate that you have chosen the position of instructor and you do your job very well. Thanks, Corey.
Hey Corey Thanx for giving props to the great Albert King & his influence on another great...Stevie Ray
Just came across these lessons, great teacher!! I've been playing 30 years and I love his down to earth style and passion for the blues! Hail to the King!!!
Wow, thanks!
Exceptionally interesting. Really appreciate the way you teach the lesson. Please do a lesson on the BB box.
Love these videos man! It’s like putting on a pair of glasses after you’ve stumbled around most of your life! Keep it up Sensei!
Wow thx!
I purchased Lovejoy in 1971 and Albert has been my favorite since then.
Love this in the style of. A few good licks, some theory and history. And some great ideas.
Great stuff man. You get Albert!
Thx so much!
Your nailing it. Love it. Thanks for the tips!
Best lesson on Albert King! Makes so much sense now.
Thanks!

Présentation extraordinaire du phasé sur 3 cordes; Bravo et grand merci .
Thanks Corey, would be nice if u could zoom in on fret board and call out string and fret
Thanks for that...I definitely do 2 camera shoots as you'll see on more recent vids. I'll be sure to call out more frets and strings!

THANK YOU FOR BEING SOO INTUITIVE
Loved it and shared it!... Always top-notch info from you Corey... Thanks man...
I love Albert’s playing.
He took his influences, and heavily influenced the next several generations. Like SRV, Hendrix? They studied Albert.
So glad I’ve seen this Corey great lesson working on pt 2 now thank you🎸🎶
Thank you! Enjoy!

Adoro jazz e fusion por influência do Jeff Beck dos anos 70, mas quando pego a guitarra mesmo quando tento soar jazz saí Blues! Parece vício!
