And here are some tips on how to play blues guitar!! Practice. Put passion and feeling into your playing. Understand that the vibration of the music is a direct connection to the universal reality of the flowing energy that we are!!! Then Go to Marty Schwartz? (Just kidding). Learn the blues scale in the key of E. Then learn to play it in other keys. Learn the blues shuffle in the key of E and the key of A. If you are playing slide learn to tune in open D and open G. Then learn the major and minor scales in the open tunings. Listen to blues music and get the feel for it. Realize that the music is best when you FEEL IT!!! The technical stuff is nice but feeling it makes all the difference. My silly channel has all this stuff on it so feel free to search for it. Also Stephen Grossman and Marty Feldman are great teachers. And finally, don’t forget to like, comment, and subscribe!!!

And here are some Slide Tips!!!

In re action. My steel guitar has relatively high action but my Gibson, which I also use for slide does not. Here are some ideas for you. When sliding learn to be gentle with your touch, especially when action is not high. Always play the note directly over the fret with the slide. When you slide within a fret be accurate so that the slider stays within the fret. Lastly, practice each part of the technique by itself. Once you have a technique down then play it in conjunction with your other chords and techniques. You are practicing the techniques and THEN the songs. I hope that helps!!!

And here are some great Blues People to listen to! Muddy Waters, Magic Sam, Charley Patton, Furry Lewis, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert Collins,Chuck Berry, Bobby Radcliff, Blind Boys Of Alabama, Bo Diddley, Buddy Guy, Elmore James, Mississippi Fred McDowell, Doc Watson, Mississippi John Hurt, Jeremiah Lockwood, Johnny Shines, Johnny Winter, Leadbelly, Rev. Gary Davis, Robert Johnson, Rev. Robert Wilkins, Ry Cooder, Taj Majal, John Fahey.
