What is Thrillin’ Rhythm? This of course is referring to the standard blues tune “The Thrill is Gone” written by Roy Hawkins and Roy Darnell, but really put on the map by blues guitar legend B.B. King. Besides going through the chord progression, in this video Berklee Online course author Michael Williams shows us different rhythms you can use while comping for the tune. He goes over a few different rhythm parts such as backbeat, “funky backbeat,” and what he calls “thrillin’ with slides.” This video comes from “Blues Guitar,” a Berklee Online course written by Michael Williams.
