Freddie King Style Slow Blues > Soloing Up The Neck

Hello Friends,  

This week we are finishing up Someday After Awhile, You'll be Sorry by working on the second A section of the solo and finishing out the last chorus. I demonstrate ideas for the 2nd A of the solo then I talk about playing around the bridge and last A section. I also demonstrate how to approach the song as an instrumental, which can be easily done. It's a fun tune to play with lots of room for emotionally charged blues playing. I'm looking forward to hearing you all play it along with the provided track.

Enjoy!

Duke

Hi Duke,

Here's my cut of Someday After Awhile. I did it as an instrumental. I tried to absorb the feeling of the tune and then played it in my style... which is pretty far from Freddie King but I tried to incorporate the ideas of playing in positions and phrasing that you presented. Thanks for a great lesson and backing track. Oh, and how you get that tone out of P90 guitars... I always wondered how you got that sound. Thanks for that tone tip!

Hi Marty, Sounds good. I liked your interpretation of the melody before your solo. Good playing and tone!
