I was lucky to see Freddie live three times. He blew the roof off every time and within 30 seconds the whole place was out of their chairs and dancing in the aisles. He could milk the BB box forever and a day with so much emotion and fire…truly a genius who doesn’t get enough recognition. Great lesson Cory! More like this please…you really nailed the tone on this one.

Bought me a cherry red epiphone 335, I am ready to absorb as Freddie King as I can.

I saw Eric Clapton at Roosevelt Stadium in Jersey City, NJ in 1974. Freddie King came out at the end and saved the show, as Clapton could barely stand up. He couldn't play and sing at the same time, and the crowd was not pleased. Freddie has been my favorite King since then.

I had the privilege of seeing Freddie King at the Armadillo World Headquarters in Austin about 45+ years ago. Eric Clapton came out at the end. What a night. I wore out Freddie's records over and over. Great video.

I think Freddie King is super under appreciated, hes my favorite Bluesman I hope there would be an in depth course about his playing and his licks. there is so much of his influence in a lot of the greatest players.

THAT GUITAR IS SPECIAL, AS GOOD AS ANY IVE EVER HEARD AND IVE HEARD EM ALL!

These lessons really take players common vocabularies and give em that thang dude. Thank you

Great video Corey, five stars! You have nailed it. Anyone who does videos about Freddie King gets my immediate respect and approval. There's thousands of guitar videos on KZfaq but very few discussing Freddie King. Can't understand why, maybe because not many people can play his licks the right way! You have only demonstrated one and there's dozens more just as fantastic! Then on top of this is the ultimate test for anyone wishing to emulate Freddie King---- the virtuoso guitar is only half of the equation------you gotta sing the songs too! Freddie King is one of my greatest musical idols, thank you for honouring him.

It's like Kim Simmonds said "All roads go through Freddie King" Great lesson, thanks for posting. God bless stay safe Rock on 🙏😷🎶❗👀

Merry Christmas Corey. Learning this brilliant lick on a rainy day in Southern England. Thanks for the ray of sunshine Buddy.

"....I'm tore down! I'm almost level with the ground..."! Freddie and BB have my favourite tones of all the great Blues legends. I've seen BB King AND Buddy Guy in concert and they were both amazing. Buddy, in particular, REALLY rocked the house!

Not being able to turn down a great sale on clothes, back in the 1970”s, I bought the same exact tan/beige polyester jumpsuit from J.C. Penny’s that Freddie is wearing while playing the Sugar Bowl (KZfaq) on clearance for $20.00. Jump suit, brim hat, and big heeled boots, used to play and boogie until 2:00 a.m. LOL 😂 Soon after, disco took over, it killed the blues clubs. Good times, high hopes and great inspirations. I love the Original Texas Cannonball Freddie King.

Hey Corey I discovered you about one week ago and my blues playing has taken off. I’ve watched all kinds of videos teaching blues but nothing compares to yours, and you’re a great guy too! Love the Freddie King riff. Good job Corey!

Freddie King is the fav king for me....Great playing and lesson Corey!

THE CLARITY IS AMAZING!

Every time you have such a cool pentatonic licks, great fun to watch as always 🤟🤟

“I got loads of metaphors. Many of them are better than that”. Fantastic.

what a great lick. I've become obsessed with Freddie King's playing lately

oh yeah! love the lesson you extract from Mr Freddie, trying to absorb they way you play and fell the blues. Thanks so much Mr Corey!

So good bro! Awesome tone too - keep those Freddie King lessons coming!! RESPECT!

You're playing is so tasteful Corey. It's really a pleasure to listen to you play.

Perfect bite-sized lesson, thanks! Great sounds too, and really nicely shot

My my was that a great Blues Étude, a real eye opener ! 🙏🇺🇲 Happy new year again.

Corey is the best " shuffle blus " Texas blues ' blues rock " Tanks Licks 👍☝👍indonesia

Another great lesson, Corey. This lick is a must have. I have two thoughts. Instead of getting a lighter gauge set for all the bending, just swap out the 2 and 3 strings for thinner gauge and leave the other four strings alone. I don't like the high string too thin. My high E string is a 10 and the B string is an 11 and the G is a 16. It like mixing a set of 9s and 10s. I use the Ernie Ball Hydrid set and replace the high E with a 10. Work well for me. As far as picking the lick, I like playing the high string D note in a hybrid style plucking it with the middle finger and only alternate pick the high D after the high F note. Snappy and accurate for me. Thanks again. I always look forward to your helpful and well articulated lesson.

great lick...great little lesson...and super sound too....very authentic....straight to the guitar to get it "under the belt"....:-)....i love stuff like that so do you, it seems.....:-)

WONDERFUL!!! What a great way to start a Saturday morning. My favorite Freddy king is In the Open, a 1, 4, 5 masterpiece of pentatonic genius. Thank you for helping all of us get a little closer to the Master.

More Freddie King for sure! 🤘🤘🤘

Corey Great help.....I figured out the whole tune by ear from Freddie's u tube video. I just slowed it down

Much respect...

Cripes Corey... If I had them ginormous lapels like Freddie I'd be automatically plugged IN! Love the lick and love what you're screamin' through that Casino Thanx mang

Man.. I've been waiting for this for years...! Thank you!

Great lesson!

Just found your videos. Really enjoyed this lesson. I will definitely be checking out a few more.

Just found your video .Thanks learned lots.

Nice. Thanks.

Thanks Corey! Just what the Dr ordered. A new lick for the long weekend! Love your content!

Dang it Corey, you gotta stop it with all these great lessons, I don't have the time to keep up!! Seriously though, this is awesome, Freddie is by far my favourite of the Kings and so it's great to see this... most other tutorials focus on the other blues greats. Freddie played with such passion! And what a voice...

Much appreciated

I'm studying Freddy King such a fun player to learn blues licks are all over rock metal country Freddie and all the Kings where would we be where would Hendrix and all those amazing players like Clapton without the Kings , tone wise I have 3 P90 guitar Strat Style guitar with those stacked P90's I throw on some gain roll down the treble the P90's I get a real bluesy tone, I thinking of installing a more traditional P90's , P90's are the way to go , love this lick it's one those you keep in the lick tool box , you can play this lick many different keys on the neck,

Awesome

This is awesome. I have tried to master that particularly tough turnaround run from hideaway for ten years now . I wish someone could walk me through it. Anyhow ...this ones cool

Great lesson! More of this please! I love Freddie King!

Great Tone!!!

Great licks! I need to listen to Freddie King more!😂

Add Garcia to the list of players who paid homage to this blues monster. Thanks for doing this, Corey.

I really enjoyed this lesson. Thanks Corey.

Oh man what a great lick!

Brilliant riff. Nice playing. Cheers

Nailed the feel and great vibe man

Sweeping that lick down rather than alt picking slurs the lick, makes it faster and takes you to Cream land.

Corey you are such a good guitar player and also a great teacher!

Outstanding

Another great blues lesson with good theory, many thanks Cory.

great stuff Corey. really like it

Very helpful, thanks.

This is a great lick, my favorite Freddie King riff is the song Side Tracked.

Hey Corey! Great Stuff, here! How can one go wrong with Albert, BB, Freddie?!? A lifetime of lessons in those 3 Kings (But, I know why you went with Freddie on this)!!! Keep Up the Great Work! 👍 # 182 ✌️

Nice one Corey 👍🎸

Great lick Corey. Thanks!!

Awesome lick! Thanks for the lesson!

That's a bad ass guitar

Wow Corey you not only nailed that lick but also the tone and the whole Freddie King attitude ! Have you made a whole video of F King songs ? because I buy it in a second, you really showed here you've him down ! Love your playing and teaching Thanks

Very nice Corey

Awesome lesson mate!

you're cool!

Wow! Great minds, CC..............I swear I was reworking your great TrueFire course (Texas Blues Solos) and naturally one is Ready for Freddie although I've also been intrigued by the cool and funky simple but complex Iceman...........as this latest lesson video of yours rolled in with your trusty Epiphone!! Jim C.

would you please do a lesson on either the opening to Freddie's "Sweet Home Chicago" and / or Gamblin' Woman Blues ????

Hey, Corey got your album Well Suited playing now, just checked doesn't appear that you have done another since then. I have everything you have ever done from True fire. Always liked your laid back attitude. Want to thank you for advising me on the pickups for my Sheraton 335 a few years ago.

I feel almost every lick Clapton played was Inspired by Freddie King.

Excellent! this is taking some time to master for me, also what year and model is that Epiphone it looks and sounds killer I am guessing 60"s by the looks and those old looking P90'S.

Sounds great Corey, do you have any videos on starting out jamming in the major scale? I struggle with being able to jam in major for some reason, thanks.

Thanks for the video, I’ve learned a lot from your KZfaq as well as one of your TrueFire classes. How do you slow up the backing track and have it keep the tone consistent? Thanks

Hi Corey, it was pleasure listening to your playing. Which softwer do you use for jamming and creating backing tracks?

Cracking tone. Don't suppose you remember what gear you were using?

Corey, that is an awesome tutorial again,thank you. What gauge strings are you use?

Love your lessons, should I also develop a blues head when playing? (Only joking)

I have a little weird question for you Mr.Cogilio , although unrelated to The Great Freddie King , I see a lotta people play "Spoonful" but none of them play from the Howlin' Wolf , is always that CREAM version , for me the guitar in that version is one of the nastiest guitar ever , and yet nobody plays that , do you know WHY?

Awesome sound!! What amp are you using?

I mean. That's not the lick note for note, but it's still cool

Cool guitar! What year is it ?

where are the tabs to download?

Good stuff bro! Looks like you got a haircut...

What guitar is that ?

I dont know if it me or what it doesnt sound like freddy king at all ??

Fabbydoo.
