Love your new guitar and the new haircut! Thanks for all the great lessons over the years, can you do a few Eric Clapton Unplugged lessons? Songs like Hey Hey, Lonely Stranger, Old Love, etc.
Hey the tab is for myBGI members, but it's a quick slide into the 4th from the 2nd. You really don't heart the starting point, it's more about sliding into the 4th. Hope that helps. It's a cool bluesy trick that's worth practicing.
It would be nice to be able to purchase individual lessons instead of a member ship. Life is fast paced and I would never be able to get my moneys worth with a membership. I love your stuff. Don’t take that as criticism. 👍🤓
‘Learn’ me play with your poodle! Great lesson Chief. Appreciated. P.S. Why did Hopkins always sound flat in his tuning? Was is a signature or was he deaf?
@@BluesGuitarInstituteAwesome John. Play with your poodle is a great intro for people who don’t ’get’ the blues. He was like Brownie McGhee in his intricacies and the power? No wonder that poor geetar suffered!
@@iam.masoudsamimi inspiration? I’d say so. (John Lee Hooker inspired the Beatles, Rolling Stones, Eric Clapton…these old guys were the “source”, so I’ve read.
Lightnin’ Hopkins was always (notoriously) flat…just try playing along with his (solo) recordings. This may or may not have been to attain a particular “twangy” sound on the guitar.
You need a double like button, that's tremendous playing! Whoo!!
ha! Thanks! Appreciate you watching and hope you have a great day. Play On!
Ah…the reason I started playing guitar! Thank you very much for laying it out for us.

Thanks! I’ve got a Tears in Heaven and a Hey, Hey tutorial on the channel. They should pop up if you search those titles from my channel page.
@@BluesGuitarInstituteFound the Hey Hey lesson, thanks! I’ll be working on that for quite a while now!

Thanks! And on the tuning, I'm not sure except that he hit the strings so hard, I think they were barely hanging on!

SRVish 😇❤🖤
Waaay before SRV was even born!
I know bro.Just sayin this one sounds a lot like SRV, in particular the syncopated rhythm. He probably inspired SRV? 🤔

0:38 Get up to speed with General Patton? I wonder if he was into the blues, hmm...
Maybe! General pattern though :)
Great lesson! But why Eb?
Lightnin’ Hopkins was always (notoriously) flat…just try playing along with his (solo) recordings.
This may or may not have been to attain a particular “twangy” sound on the guitar.
Thanks, Greg. I used Eb just to change things up and get in that Lightnin' zone :)
