Slappie 9 #2 January 24, 2007 Quotehttp://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8gv4va8Y8lg Maybe not the same type of guitar picking, but pull up http://pandora.com. Type in Albert Collins. You won't be disapointed. I promise. Even better would be some Albert King. He's one of the fathers of modern rock n roll guitar. Yet his name isn't as well know as another King, B.B. King. They've both got a style that just floats you along swaying with the song. Albert King though was really more influence on Robert Cray, Eric Clapton and Stevie Ray Vaught then B.B. King was. I'm just in a Blues mood and have been for about 3 days.

iamsam 0 #8 January 24, 2007 Quote Check-out Henry Johnson or Mississippi John Hurt! edit to add: or Jesse Fuller, Lightnin' Hopkins, John Lee Hooker? and don't forget Robert Johnson, the original bluesman that sold his soul to the devil in exchange for his talent and on a more jazz tip Django Rheindhart who despite limited mobilty in his fretboard hand blew away a whole generation nice close ups of the chord shapes in that clip, think I'm gonna sit down and learn me some Deep River Blues but what do I know Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
masterrig 1 #9 January 24, 2007 If, you check farther down that list on you-tube, you'll see a guy playing a version of 'Windy and Warm'. Check-out the original by Chet Atkins. Recorded around 1961 0r 62. I don't think that has ever been proven about Robert johnson but, it makes for an interesting story. He died, drinking poisoned whiskey in a juke-joint because, he had been puttin' the moves on the bartender's wife. Chuck Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
