I started out wanting to do a side by side of BB and Magic Sam's "I Need You So", but there's so much goin on in the Magic Sam version, I had to stick to this one in this by request lesson. I go over Mighty Joe Young's rhythm playing and try to capture the energy and excitement of Magic Sam's fills and solo. Have fun digging deep into this tune-- and check out the more elegant BB version too! If you can really nail these you will definately have the tools to elevate your own mid-tempo shuffle solos.
