He's handing us the keys to the kingdom in the simplest of ways. This channel needs more exposure!

I see some people have already mentioned some of Corey's rhythm courses on Truefire, etc. Just want to throw in my two cents worth: GET THEM ALL!!! His lead courses are great, too, but I think there's no better rhythm guitar teacher out there (Robben Ford's are good, too, but they're more at a Master Class level, IMHO). It's hard to find rhythm courses, period, because there's just not much interest in it compared to lead playing. The content and presentation of Corey's rhythm videos are so fun and sound so good, it could almost make someone prefer being a rhythm guitarist over a lead player...almost. Let me stress again, his lead courses are great, too. I've got several, and they've helped me a ton. I wish this stuff had been around when I started playing back in the 1970's...Maybe I'd have become the monster player I've always dreamed of being.

Brilliant lesson, much appreciated!

Way big thanks for that video. Great example of why we need teachers. I know those chords and licks, but not the way you showed it. Beautiful, melodic, and so many more possibilities to use what you showed in different ways. Corey you're a great player, and thanks so much for sharing.

Another killer tutorial Corey. I'd been looking everywhere for someone to teach this sort of stuff. A big thank you!

What a tremendous lesson! This has opened some doors for me. Thank you Corey!

Great little groove - I really loved it and it helped me get some more finger dexterity and rhythm - thx!

brilliant! so helpful thanks very much

Thank you so very much! Especially for the E9- passing chord. Great.

Inspirational. Thanks for some great insight!

The Epiphone Casino, magnificent! Great work on detailing the chord tones into double-stops and fills! Thank you again!

Excellent work

Corey love the lesson started learning jazz blues years ago, just now getting back to it, great lesson, packed full of great info, it is great the way you break it down easy to follow, so Coollll !!!

VERY COOL ,JUST WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR

Fun! I did those transition chords with a uni-vibe sound which really gave it that keyboard flavour, which I have never quite noticed in the same way before, especially with the pull of to the D from the Emin7

I also love scat singing along with this Mel Torme, Ella and so on.

Great lessons. Thanks for sharing, Corey.

Hi Corey I've been playing for years without really learning any scales, theory or having any teacher at all. You're lessons are by far the best and most informative and easy to follow i've seen on KZfaq. They also make sense!!! Thanks form putting these on.

I live how you are incorporating chromatic lines within chords it just sounds so smooth

Every lesson is a real gem.

Love this groove!

Excellent lesson

Am7 I play with my thumb hooked over the 6th string, and bar the rest with my index finger. Super easy. Also nice to add the high C with my pinky on the 7th fret of the 1st / e string.

Gracias, muy bueno 👍👍👍

It's always a great pleasure getting to tackle anything Corey teaches on YT or TrueFire as he's always prepared with pertinent material and delivers his lessons with excitement and in such a friendly upbeat manner. I've known Mr. Congilio for over a decade now and he's probably tired of hearing my same praises by now but Corey's lessons have actually gotten even tighter and fun and I consistently keep feeling this same way when I come away (this lesson is a prime example) more confident and happy with my own playing! Jim C.

Once again great lesson love this. Really like how you throw more advanced topics in there as I am familiar with a lot of concepts theoretically but am unable to execute alot of them .In short my knowledge outpaces my ability alot of times and its a real 💡 when I find I can use this information.

Thanks Corey!!

Excellent lesson! Great warm up piece also. Many thanks. You are a really good teacher.

Thanks Corey for everything you teach in your lessons ! Your feelings , sound and playing are far better than many guitar legend ! I wish you the best ! Greetings from Croatia !

Thank you

Really nice Lesson; easy to improvise around this rythm; lots of fun!

LOve the minor Blues . . . great tutorial Corey.

Thank You Corey

Fantastic lesson Corey - thanks so much - awesome !

Man this is an awesome lessons. Opened me up a few new things 👍

Great lesson, Corey. I'm learning a lot with you. You're a great teacher. And what a feeling! Greetings from Paris

Thank Corey! You are the best. Keep playing the blues!

When I came across Corey Congilio, and his video presentations, I discovered a guy who truly knows how to teach. As I've said before.. Corey explains, demonstrates, explains again, and provides additional examples in a very relaxed manner. Spread the word - Let's get this man's subscriber numbers Up! Way UP!! Carry on, Corey!! Appreciate ya'!!!

thank you

So cool Corey, love your Truefire courses too!

Lots to like in this video. Doable chord changes, a nice groove, some rhythm and melody licks, nice variations like the sharp nine/flat nine walk down. And as you say, it's a "by yourself" piece. Well done!

Great lesson. Thank you for the free tabs.

Thx Corey. Love your videos. 👍😊🎸

Wow Corey! I have no idea how you only have 32k subscribers. You are by far one of the best instructors on KZfaq today. I look forward to these lessons every Saturday!

Excellent video & Excellent camera shots of the hands Excellent Teaching!! Thank you!

Really great Corey!! You da man!! Thank you!

Awesome lesson! These blues teachings are the best for me at this time, 🎸 I spent about 2 - 3 weeks everyday learning the entire rhythm section of S.R.V' s Marry Had A Little Lamb 🐑 & it was tricky. Megadeth, Metallica, Iron Maiden was what I used to learn, but aside from Guns & Roses the Blues are infectious for me now, & once you, as Slash said connect your 1st lick best feeling, (he said something like that). Thank you! 🎶

This is the best bluesy improv jam thingy lesson I've found.

Another great lesson!

thanks for teaching this

Great lesson. Something for everyone!!!

Guy down the road is giving lessons like this for $25 for 30 minutes. Thanks for saving me a few dollars and sharing your knowledge.

What an amazing lesson Corey, thank you so much for doing these lessons!

Uber efficient and explicit! Awesome instruction! Grazie.

Great lesson and thank you...!

Mega lesson wow

thank you! cool 1 and east 2 follow

This is absolutely great Cory. Simple but tasty, it's something I'll use in my playing going forward. Love the way it jazzes up the progression. Thanks for all you put out here and Trufire.

fantastic!!

Yeah, I love it, I just want to learn a bunch of cool vamps like this one. Thanks so much!

Looooooove this!!!!🤟🏼🤟🏼🤟🏼

Another great lesson Corey, Can't really add much to the other comments singing your praises except to also say thanks for your generosity in providing us with 'TABS and tracks'. Amid your diverse output this vid and the one 'Blues by yourself' are real gems - as good as anything on YT to help 'lift one's game'. Cheers

¡Muchas gracias por compartir! Saludos desde Argentina

gold!

Thanks for another awesome lesson Corey! I love that minor 7th chord... my friends in college taught me that shape back in the day and it quickly became one of my favorite chords. We learned it for the beginning of the Black Sabbath song Behind the Wall of Sleep :-) It's not just for blues and jazz haha.

This turnaround!!!!! omg!!! so sweet!!!! love it!!! (as your entire lesson!!! :) ) So cool to see/use these little triads in between the chords groove... More lessons like this PLEASE!!!!! (As always thanks for your time and sharing your knowledge!)

Excellent...very tasteful. Amazing tutorial...AGAIN! Appreciate you, Corey!

Oh man, corey this is the one..love this lesson...im really all about rhythm but those lil fills just sweet.. im amazed how followable your lessons are.. first few min its panic ,mode but keep watching and the end result is so playable..and one understands the why..so mindblowing..great teaching approach..thank you so much...making back fusion recovery very cool..and making me do occasional deep dive out of my comfort zone on fret board..hell may even grow a soul patch lol.. Great stuff love all the grooves..learning so much Mahalo

Corey, You are the guy again the right mix of teaching. Your teaching style is spot on!!!!

I am making the habit of going through one of your lesson like this every Sunday. It makes a difference! Thanks Corey

I keep coming back to the lessons on this channel - and this is one of the best ones yet : ) Not too technically demanding to play, but so much good stuff in there that I didn't know before, and a great authentic sounding piece to learn and play... I have a bunch of Corey's Truefire courses as well and would definitely recommend them! Thank you Corey : )

Really practical and usable stuff Corey. Cheers for taking the time to put this up. 👍

Another very cool lesson Corey

Nice, hadn’t thought about the E7flat 9 before but it works well here. 😊

Bloody marvelous yet again Corey. Thank you.

Hi Corey, absolute magic. Thank you 🙏

Thanks... Your cool

this is a great lesson to learn moving to many chords in time, precursor to jazzier blues, love your lessons here and on Truefire......thank you!

That's an excellent lesson that I'm really enjoying getting stuck in to. I'm going to explore your other stuff as well. Thumbs up from the UK

So impressed with your teaching style and the content is exactly what I have been looking for to break out of my ruts…thank you!!!

real cool man...

Wow...what a great lesson...so cool...Corey ...you are the best!

Great lesson!

Great lesson Corey, it reminds of an older Mike Stern lesson I had from long ago, I forget who he said he got it from, some older jazz player. As long as the wheel keeps on turning, players will keep on learning. Thanks.

Only just found you Corey but really glad I have. Awesome playing and brilliant lessons. I could spend hours immersed on your lessons (and probably will)!!

One of the best groove and lessons, Thank you.

🎼Loved all that stuff, no doubt about it...!! lol, thanks.

Thanks Corey, great video. Much respect...

Awesome lesson! Thanks Corey... this is a gift!!!

Corey, thanks again!! Another great lesson, this time on a slow minor blues. I practice every day on your tremendously helpful tips and I've achieved so much more confidence as to playing solo... I'm 67 years old, I'm definitely not a beginner, since I started playing guitar when I was eleven and I explored many musical aspects from classical to bossa nova, so I have no problem even with difficult chords. But soloing has always been my weak point and with your lessons I'm gradually overcoming that!

This is really cool. And super easy to follow along. The tab is a nice add for those "wait a sec, what?" moments. Thank you.

Hi Corey, it''s amazing what you create out of simple Ideas! Thanks for that lesson.

That Epi, Corey!!! :D Thanks for another great lesson!

Thanks Corey having a lot of fun with this also looking at ways to improvise with this great lesson, subbed some time ago.

great , thanks for the free lesson ;)

Yeah Corey, another hot lesson. You are a true teacher I can spend the whole day on your channel 👏👏👏👏

Great lesson, Corey ! Thanks

Thank you Corey! Been learning a lot from you. Painfully slow is what I need, lol! Keep up the great lessons/videos. Thanks again!

Another great lesson. This has improved my rhythm playing no end! Thanks

Corey deserves 10 to 20 x the subscribers great player/teacher
