This song, as do many of Johnson's, implies a 12 bar structure without actually playing the changes. In this version, we play the changes which maks it a lot asier to navigate. Not one for the purists though.
A classic gospel tune, easy enough with the left hand but you'll need some right hand picking skills to create your own version of the song as I don't go into any detail on exactly what notes to play, around lesson 8 you should be OK.
This one is a 12 bar blues but getting that swing feel will require some solid right hand skills. It's suitable for later in the fretless course, the lesson on swing grooves, but of course you can play it on anything.
Again this one's suitable for later in the fretless course, a classic swing feel.
I've put this in the EZ category although I'll reference it later in the course. Don't try it if you're just starting it out.
One of my first YouTube videos so I've not yet learned that people prefer fret numbers to the correct names I use here. Stilll a good tune to learn and if you're doing the courses here you'll know what I'm tallking about. A good song for early in the 3 string fretless course, around lesson 4 or 5.
To play Rock you need that attitude happening, but how does that translate musically?
There's mountains of stuff throughout the site on playing a shuffle so subscribers will have seen most of this before, could still be worth a look though.
