. It’s been quite a while since I did an Earl lesson which is remarkable since he’s my favorite guitar player. He manages to be puckish, almost off-handed and very elegant and swinging all at the same time. Like all the greatest blues stars, his personality jumps off the record. This is a great song for intermediate guitar players to learn note for note– a series of simple themes played in a stylish way all over the neck.
