Albert is the true king.

My bad but I had no idea you offered guitar lessons. I have always loved Albert and I am so glad you hold him in high regard. Subscribed and will lurk a while. 😎

so, at one time, you could get a life time supply of yellow wheat straw ziz zag' s for 8 cents. albert would play on pacific coast highway across from the pier. we would bribe the doorman to keep the side door open, we were not old enough to get in. he had a full band. he did not fool around...

Albert King played with such energy and authority, no wonder he is considered one of the "kings of the blues". Every lick he played was sort of "here I am", "in your face"... I wish I had been lucky enough to catch one of his gigs. But I never did, so I don't really have any Albert King memories other than the day when I found a vynil with one Albert King side and one Otis Rush side, I think it was "Door to Door" (it was over 30 years ago, so I could be wrong), but both Albert and Otis became two of my heroes that day!

Great lesson as usual, one thing which always seems to me a bit strange Several blues tunes do have the I chord minor but most of the others IV or V are Major or 7th isn't it a bit weird ? What's your comment on that

@JohnnyBurginBlues

Жыл бұрын

that's a good point. i'll have to think about the 'why'. but in this song, with tthe raised 5, that's like the brother of the Minor IV chord to me.

so somehow, we managed, if we promised to behave to gain entrance.

I’m a joliet man 58 hrs old try to play the blues have good technique but just stuck in the box every teacher I get call me intermediate I just don’t know but you help me a lot do you have and tab for Albert king or any other blues artist Little Milton also
