Slow Blues Guitar Lesson
Learn to play the blues at:
➢➢➢ www.absolutebluesguitar.com
This series of lessons, taught by Bobby Harrison, is effectively a course within a course. We will focus on the unique and often under-taught subject of slow blues guitar playing.
Slow blues is a very expressive form of blues, since it allows for a lot of freedom in terms of phrasing, feel and dynamics. Slow blues classic such as "Red House","Texas Flood", "How Blue Can You Get", "Be Careful With A Fool", "The Sky Is Crying” and “Five Long Years” are all essential listening.
Since the blues is an improvisational form of music, it can be more difficult to teach than other styles and slow blues in particular has its own elasticity when it comes to phrasing. Using a variety of backing tracks, we will learn several slow blues solos, using slightly different approaches to phrasing each time.
For generations, blues musicians have picked up licks and soloing ideas from other players, so feel free to steal the ideas presented here and incorporate them into your own solos. Eventually, like the generations of blues guitarists before you, you’ll make them your own.

All kinds off style since 1970 but I was lucky from around new Orleans area my dad would take me bar hoping when I was 7 on I loved the music bourbon st just walk down there was endless Love music . Well At 15 bought a little pignose hit the French quarter and just stared jamming . Slow playing after you learn sweeps is such a. Different way off feeling .every word he is saying is meaningful slow down and feeling it brought me back to why I started when we talk to people with our instruments they can't help but to be drawn in love art my friend enjoy

At least one other video shows him playing a lefty (a tele,IIRC). Also, I personally think it's easier for a righty to learn from a lefty. It's a mirror-image, so nothing is reversed, the directions are the same. If the lefty is walking up the neck, he's moving to my right, same as I am. It's simpler and makes more sense, IMO.

Hi Peter. There's nothing wrong with playing slowed down versions of the licks you'd play in a faster blues, but the phrasing and feel of slow blues traditionally has its own unique flow. A good way to learn is by picking up licks from the example solos and incorporating them into your own playing. It's all broken down on the website. There's actually a 30 part section on slow blues alone.
