    I played pro Blues harp for many years & picked up guitar some years ago. I've written & performed plenty of songs but found Blues guitar somewhat illusive. Ok so I balked at the vid's title, it seems an outlandish gimmicky claim, but must say Sean you're truly a brilliant & masterful instructor. Thanks so much, this is gold!

    Normally when someone with 'the knowledge' fast fires a lesson, I just end up bewildered, knowing there was valuable information in there somewhere but unable to unravel it. Sean you have the ability to pour out pure gold at a fast rate and my brain just soaked it up, this is great stuff, it's sold like a cheat sheet but it's real music theory in a blues tone. My brain got it all, it's my fingers that are just trying to keep up. Great stuff, thanks.

    This channel is the only one where I can watch your videos and understand what you're talking about off the bat. I graduated TH-cam academy in guitar, and I've suffered through the too easy and the too hard lessons. What I love about yours is that anybody could learn from it. Keep it up and never ever ever ever stop lest my guitar strings oxidize.

  • @dr.weeniehutjr

    Why do people have to hate on the clickbait? The only people mad about it are people who already know enough shit about the blues to know it's a baity title anyway, not the kind of people who would actually learn something from it. The man has content and needs to draw attention to his videos. I support it.

  • @weimaraner3240

    The clearest, most time-efficient, no-nonsense, straight-to-the-point instruction yet. Thank you for sharing. I'm just getting back into playing guitar (approximately 2 years ago), after a 30++ year hiatus. I had played a lot back in the 60's / 70's,... but sold all my guitars in the 80's & didn't pick one up until about 2 years ago. I was determined to learn to do it right this time, & in-person, one-on-one instructors are a gross waste of time & money. There are countless instructors on the internet that will impress upon you how good they are (usually heavy metal head-bangers), but don't teach you anything!!!! You are a welcome change. I will be signing on as a student as soon as Mom gives me my allowance!!!

      Bluestomiv hard rock? I've yet to hear him in any hard rock Channel and dude is deff all over the blues scene. I think maybe compared to the 1880s through 1970s that the new blues is maybe hard rock but blues is the blues. It's not a genre it's a feeling. Still didn't get me laid. Bad tutorial

    • @Bluestomiv
      @Bluestomiv 8 ปีที่แล้ว +8

      I'm sorry did Joe Bonamassa grow up in the delta being treated like shit all his life because he was black? oh no I didn't think so. did he work on a plantation plowing fields and picking cotton? oh no I didn't think so. Did Joe Bonamassa watch his friends and family get lynched? oh no I didn't think so. that's what makes real blues so special, when it's none right by a real blues man it conveys those feelings and experiences. that's the feeling in the blues. Joe Bonamassa plays blues rock. different thing altogether. if "woke up dreaming" was played with an electric guitar and some distortion it would sound indistinguishable from any other hard rock song.

      So earl hooker and blind lemon Jefferson aren't blues players? Or Freddie King? STV (who is white btw)? Blind Willie Johnson or Eric johnson (another white guy) or T bone walker or big momma Thornton or Zz top (white guys)? Or Eric fucking Clapton? (White and English) So these ppl aren't blues players or blues musicians according to your words right?
      You must be white. You're an idiot. Blues does not mean color. Does not mean how you're treated or your place of birth.
      I've just listed some of the most famous blues players but according to you they are not blues players because they aren't from the "delta blues" area lmao. Fucking Internet tard you are

    On the third time around, something clicked. Melody created in a pattern of 1, 4, 5 is Blues. I am a perennial beginner and cannot play Chords other than E and A and here it is you can make blues in whichever way your Heart pleases and your limitations matter the least. Your unstructured self learning makes way for an uncluttered teaching approach. Un-seemingly almost like stealth you introduced 1 4 5 and a turnaround emphasising their Origin from a scale and then showing how only those notes too are enough to make your “blues” go away. A poor-middle-aged-beginner-since-forever can also have something to do. Much appreciated Sir 🙏🙏🙏

    Hey bro,I like your positive attitude ,I just wanted to suggest giving a quick explanation of the 1-4-5 progression... I'm a teacher also and you are absolutely right about how almost all blues/rock and pop for that matter is only 3 chords,the riffs you play are irrelevant to the basic lesson of learning the roots,E-A-B...G-C-D etc...Bob Dylan always said anymore than 3 chords in a song is just showing off... thanks for your time and keep it up... peace

    Sketch the 12 bars out onto staff paper (12 bars) and you can cut and paste the I, IV, and V chords to hear how simple blues progressions can become works of art. Use a rhythm source (a drum machine or a friend who can keep rhythm), then create melodies etc. Wow! Try telling a story about your condition. Got blues?

    I think all you guys who are bitching over the title are acting like losers. No one in their right mind would take that title literally. Not because it's about the blues - "learn every in 8 minutes" is just not a literal title. Lighten up and learn to have some fun without having to be the center of attention.
    Or, even better - before you start tearing down what others are trying to do, get your own videos out here. Maybe you're right - maybe you can do it way better. And then you *will* get to be the center of attention. But put up or shut up.
