the joy-ride rolls on, what a FUN song to play !   -  although it would help to have 20 cups of coffee to keep up with the backing track  -  somehow Freddie pulls it off so...

Here's a standard dating back to the '40s. Sentimental Journey was written and originally recorded by Les Brown in 1944 and has since become a standard that has been recorded many...

Hi Jerry,   I was wondering if you could tell me if the signature harp riff on this song (I have it on the Rhino High-Five album) ends with a hand or throat vibrato (warble?), or...

Hi Alan, You got it man! Very good, Duke 

I'm all over the place looking at your materials here.   One thing I am really interested in is learning the art of the slow Blues from the stand point of good rhythm playing (i.e...

Got the basics of it! Thanks Duke!

I like 0,13, tune in open D and use a capo for open E..and about slide...short ones!! But it's a matter of taste!!! Touch really makes the difference!!! :)) Hope to see a your...

Thank Alex, I will try. I will be changing strings for a bigger one because I have read that it helps for the slide So.... summing up: 1: rise the action 2: bigger strings if you...

@Claudio...I copy you and paste an advice that Corey gave me time ago about how to set the action of the guitar...;) Ciao Alex "We used to take a matchbook cover and fold it over...

@Peter Wolf...ok I can see you are getting there.  I would suggest working on your rhythm first.  Isolate the alternating bass and play that in time by itself in a comfortable...

Is there tablature to  indicate the specifics of the walk down?  Thanks!

Hey Guys, Absolutly love this sight! Afew weeks back Jerry Portnoy did a series of lessons on "Cold,cold feeling". I'm quite sure  one lesson is missing or was removed. The series...

Hi Steve, Good idea in many respects, I love Peter Green! But I think it's better to move on to another song after this. Thanks, Duke 

Thank you Scott! Cherry Red is a great 8 bar blues. I can't believe you listened to "Blues a Rama" 3 times in a row! 

Hi! Thanks for your lesson - love your style in this song! 

Hi Duke! Your lesson helped me to (almost) find your Lonesome Road's chords progression. Thanks a lot and grettings from Paris! Guillaume

Maybe a lesson featuring the alternate "Stumble" of Peter Green.  

Grazie Mike!!! To have That good sound on the 2nd string will run me crazy very soon!!! :DDD the guitar it's the old one...the epiphone el 00...I prefer to use it when I play slide...

Hey what brand of guitar you are playing on? Nice sound.  

Floating Bridge (Sleepy John Estes) - particularly like the Eric Clapton (Another Ticket) and Gregg Allman (Low Country Blues) versions.

Hello I have a Fender Telecaster with A DeArmond "Hershey Bar" pick-up in the neck position, and it sounds great. What I might do is find another guitar to put the pickups in and...

Hey Duke you are incredible - I'm so thankful for this site - your insite and everything- just pure taste! I have a request - could you put together a transcription of the old tune...

Hi Corey Et voila, second try, I work on the singing but I feel not yet satisfied. I should go in US, to get the accent. Do you have a special accent? Where does it come from? Is...

Awesome !  Funny thing.  Yesterday, I listened all the way through Blues-o-rama THREE times on the train ride to work.  Great stuff Big Joe Turner is one of my favorites and...

@ Peter Wolf...yes that's nine measures. Thanks also for posting audio.  I would suggest that you lighten your touch and spend more time getting comfortable with the bass...

@Mike...your tempo is good here.  All you really have to do is play it a lot so it becomes more comfortable and lighten you touch.  Take it slowly and it will stick. 

Hi Folks, this weeks lesson is the first two choruses to "The Stumble." It's a fun tune with that finger-buster double stop part at the end of each verse of the head. It's a little...
