Man, you broke this down exactly like I played it by ear 60 tears ago on my Silvertone acoustic! Haven't played anything in decades now, but this brought me back to my youth sitting on my porch in Georgia . Thanks for the memories! ❤🎉😅

My favorite Jimmy Reed track. He always sounds so effortless. Great lesson, very clear. Love that hammered e turnaround

Wow. You're a very good teacher! Very carefully done, very explicit. Good job!

When I was about 11 years old my buddy and I were playing all the Jim Reed songs on our electric guitars and I even had an A harmonica that I played at the same time . We nailed every song Jimmy recorded. I played a Harmony guitar and my buddy played a Fender Telecaster.

Amen, jimmy reed... my favorite... thank you so much for this analysis... great lesson... JR, has some great guitar overdub parts... very cool thx again...

Much obliged for the lesson, man. A full breakdown of a groovy tune from the great Jimmy Reed!

Brilliant work man, I think this is spot on. Thanks for putting in the time.

Ain’t that loving me baby one of my favourites

loved it. Thanks for sharing your passion for guitar.

This is the best yet. Thank you very very much. You are an awesome teacher.

This is a terrific lesson, thank you very much for taking the time to help us all improve? Just subscribed 👍

Very cool. Love Jimmy

I love your lessons!

bravo! excellent work on the B closure

Excellent lesson ... thanks for taking the time to do it for us out here. Much appreciated by me anyway.

I'm TOTALLY jealous of the classic photo collage you have in view. Fantastic!!

I like that you mentioned the Bill Doggett tune. That always caught my ear on the Blue Velvet soundtrack, and this reminds me of it.

Thank You Very Much! Easy To Follow You Did A Really Fine Job With This Tutorial, Maybe The Easiest Explanation For Such A Hard Song To Learn🎸

Brilliant, thanks for sharing.

Great lesson, thanks a lot from Grenoble, France :0)

Thanks for the top notch video. I'm going to play this at my next open mic. Best regards.

It’s the great Eddie Taylor playing all the cool guitar parts, behind Jimmy...

Great lesson man, thank you

A great breakdown of a Jimmy Reed classic.

Effin love Jimmy

love this I have a n early 70's Joe Pass also looped in bro ✌

Muito bom. obrigado!

So cool lesson merci beaucoup

Awesome 🤩💃👏...

Quality sir thanks

Thanks. I'm trying to learn this song.

Thanks!

I think you have pretty much nailed it. I don't think it was overdubs as some suggest. It was 3 guitars and probably one or two microphones recorded mono so that everything bleeds into each other (drums, bass and vocals, too) so that it impossible to which guitar player is playing which part. Keith Richards writes in his biography about the early Stones studying Jimmy Reed's style, and he admits he could not figure some of it out.

Oh yeah!

Great lesson. Can I ask what amp/setup you’re using?

do you play it on a electric guitar or acoustic

So, the first note, the open 6th E string, comes just before the down beat? And 2nd note, the 5th string, is 1 (down beat)?

An interesting thing I heard about this song is that the title is a mistake - the engineer misheard Jimmy Reed. If you listen to the lyrics, you can hear he actually sings ‘Baby why you wanna let go’ - which was the intended title.

What gutair are you playing?

it's baby why you wanna let go

Joe Pass guitar! I dig Joe Pass music...

Are you using standard tuning?

Good lesson but would be good to see the right hand too when youre explaining what its doing.

Part 1: 0:00- 8:55

Jimmy was probably so stoned he didn't know what we was doing himself

4:12, 12:30(turnaround),

tabs are missing to understand quicker!

😂🤣😂

talk talk talk talk talk lesson ..

go back and finish learning the song please.

Hey im cal reason hundreds of thousands of followers from england i think this guys way off man so are many .always 2 or 3 guys behind jimmy best find a boogy more like classic lightning hopkins just crank your amp jimmy is always out of synch makes it great this is boring .jimmy only needed to remember where his booze was. I can do them all promis but jimmys is most wacky but great not like this yawn . I play on rear telcaster pickup my amps got a slit 120 dollar blackstar superb but cant nail jimmy perfect .ps i never sell my blues with a personal image and i rose from immense poverty to where i am ok people .

listen man, get a guitar lesson before you start trying to teach guitar and then come back
