OLD SCHOOL BLUES Like You’ve Never Heard | Claw-Hammer Hill-Country Fingerstyle Acoustic Slap Guitar

- 🎸Printable Guitar Tabs for this Song ("Willie Brown's Train"): justinjohnsonstore.com/collec...
I've always had this sound in my head that starts with the Boogie & Hill Country feel of blues masters like John Lee Hooker and R.L. Burnside... then mixes in a combination of claw-hammer banjo and slap bass techniques to get a percussive back-beat vibe... uses classical and fingerstyle techniques to run lead lines... and draws from the Jimi Hendrix / Stevie Ray Vaughan school of riffage. It's gotta have that old-school train rhythm chuggin' through the song to keep the feet tappin' and to create that whole-band feel that early delta blues guitarists where known for.

I don’t think even Eric Clapton would try this one ☝️
Fantastic coordination love your style thanks !
@@Pound_Shift Um.... yeah,... I don`t think tabs would help me much.
Wow 👏 u got skills Brother
tabs! TABS!!! Surely you josh!!😄😅😳😜
No backing track, no band, just 1 man 1 guitar. Music at it's purest form! big thumbs up. I could listen to this all day.
Every once in a while you listen to someone play and it'll make you want to practice 20 years to try and catch up.
Makes me want to run to catch up! I'd love to sit down and throw down like this. I'd get lost in myself hahahaha and jam all day long
Yeah guys I am at the stage where I do get lost and jam for very very long hours every couple of days
Oh Yes Oh Yes!
I relate
Urab
I swear, Justin Johnson is like the modern day Stevie Ray Vaughan.
I'm really sad that SRV didn't get to live to see this man's talent to be honest. R.I.P.
Similar dress sense, different style of playing.
@@johnnyrocker7495 True.
I was thinking the same.
what are you talking about both God and Jesus are rocking out with SRV plus he's up in heaven playing to JJ thats playing for all of us that truly love real music
Yo zero talent, all practice
This long haired white kid is bringing the blues to life!! Just goes to show we ALL got SOUL!! 👍🙏
Its not the 5 minutes and 24 seconds that we are listening to its the pure talent, years of practice and obvious joy you have for the strings!
How do you know it took years of practice it could have been a week or two I learned how to play music off the radio it was only power cords but I was there with it even for electronics it took me 10 minutes to learn a 60 minute course past 100% as well as my other mentees years after being taught the thing that makes this guy and people like us look like geniuses we are not just for the record is that we are normal it is everyone else that has issues being oppressed not being taught the right things at the right time by the right people just witness in general it keeps you from creating when you are in the right place one may easily settle into the zone I get semi-defensive about this because even though I know how to do certain things certain people will not allow me to use their instrument or their machine because they think that I am like them on their level and with an attitude like that I probably would be but that is so not realistic
@@toolguyslayer1 hhahahahah thanks for the laugh
@toolguyslayer1 Did you learn grammar through the radio too? : P
Man, those runs are as smooth as a cascading waterfall
“Drums . . . ? We Don’ need no steenkin’ drums . . . ‘“
That comment was as smooth as those runs man 😎
Smoother
even cooler - grab that guitar from behind the chair & you can replicate this with practice in simple E,A & B
Now you got me thinking bout the damn waterfall. 😂
Lordy, Lordy, that geetar sounds mighty rich, praise the Lord for Mr Johnson and his fine talent, Amen!
Get your hands on one soon because my country will not exist much longer
Amen brother! Amen. Pure talent with a beautiful soul.
There's so many incredibly talented people on this platform but this dude is definitaly the coolest of them.
Everyone has already given every compliment I could possibly think of. All that is left is - THANK YOU !!!!! I really needed this today.
Justin time.
Justin,hou are for me one of the greatist
@@bluewaterpines2santarosabe398Mixin Strings. 👍😆🧙♂️
Hear hear!👍🏻🤠
なんてこった〜！！ここにも天才が〜
Thank You So Match
I am at work today, been digging to China since 9:30... catching my breath. This is just what I needed...To hell with Roy Harper, HATS OFF TO THE WIZARD!!!
Most talented guitar player I’ve ever heard and I’m almost 70 years old
And I’ve always appreciated the guitar players input on songs and instrumentals in general .
WOW is all I can say
Thanks Justin
Awesome
Obviously you have never listened to SRV
@@sneauxman3673 I have listened to Steve Ray ,Jimmy Hendrix ,Doc Watson ,and Billy .
But Justin is different he is a one man show !
And face it you might think chevrolets are the best and I might like European
Or Vice versa .
No two people have to agree on anything that’s what’s great about America .
Like many others, I was immediately impressed by the amazing technique and perfect polish of his playing. But just as important is his concept, which manages to incorporate a bass line, strumming chords, a melody line and rhythmic accompaniment. A full orchestration on one single instrument played by one exceptional human being.
Darn. Good. Guitar. Picker. For sure. Like. To. Try. To. Play some. Bass. To. Some. Of. I'd. Stuff
His
It's hard to put into words, other than to say his playing is absolutely amazing.
My father was Tennessee State Champion Old Time banjo picker one year. He also preserved much of the American folk music during the 60's and 70's. The first music he'd play with a guitar (and me!) on his lap was Son House and Mississippi John Hurt--still my favorite music and one of my favorite photos is of this. It's on my wall today. Thank you so much for the gift to me that this video is, Justin! ❤
Reason to really proud. I’ve got the actual same name as one of the most famous musicians in the world, but named a couple of years before they became famous, family heritage thing that the eldest son of each generation was given what I consider that God awful name. Ended with me, no one else uses it in any part now, knowing the jokes I’ve suffered over the years.
I've heard a lot of guitarists with awesome technique, trying to "play the blues" and failing miserably. This is the real deal, and I love it. Only trouble is, I'm now going to have to find time to learn some of those licks.
I close my eyes and daydream its me playing for people in my my family. I wish with tears in my eyes I had a gift like yours. You're blessed my man, and I'm blessed to have heard something so amazing!
Man oh man I never get tired of hearing Justin play!!!! He is a true professional and he can sure make that guitar do what he wants it to do. Always a joy!!!!
A musical god is born, truely a gifted man here.
I came ready to be schooled on just how clawhammer should sound...little did I know, Justin was prepped to throw everything including the kitchen sink into this masterwork! Man, that was smoother than a 20 year old single malt served up neat!!! ❤️
ahaa
The man has magic in his fingers and soulfulness in his heart, mind and soul! Great brilliant playing as always, Justin!!!
I don't know if this man believes in God or not but this is a Gift from the Lord. Simply unbelievable.
I know this is too long for a song title, but I'm tempted to call this the "If You Aint' Dancin', You Must Be Dead" Blues. Marvelous playing, as always.
Im agree! That should be the name of the song!
"Even the Dead Can Dance!"
Now that is a good name for this song, fits it perfectly 👍
@@gordonbradbury8996 Is good too! But i like more "If You Aint' Dancin', You Must Be Dead" en español sería " Sino estás bailando, es porque estarás muerto!"
Definitely not too long, and a great name for sure!
You can almost hear the Cuban heeled cowboy boots all slamming onto the whiskey stained bar floorboards in unison, keeping in time with the metronomic rhythms as the sounds of everyone's joy echoes across the plains. Thank you Justin for sharing your musical genius with us all, just one masterpiece after another. Best wishes from Steve in England.
Had to look up Cuban heels.
Pretty cool that The Beatles proudly sported Cuban heels in solidarity with the revolution.

@@marjorieandrzejewski7996 Hi Marjorie, thank you for your message. I have recently been thinking about joining the JJ army on Patreon, I only delayed my joining as I am between phones and I would want all downloads to go straight to the new one. I am not very tech savvy so what to avoid transferring all downloads to a new phone. I love the styles and skill of Justin and have all 11 of his released CD's (2 signed), and his 6 tutorial DVD's. I look forward to joining his Patreon army and to make more friends along the way. I hope you and your family are all well during the current health crisis. Stay safe my friend. Steve from England xxx.
By the way, I like your pic, you are very beautiful.
Justin your unbelievable. Iv been playing blues for 30+years and listening to your work is inspiring .. go bro
No words to express how much I love this.. beautiful music 🎵🎶 to my ears
I’ve played for 62 years & my damn fingers never could and likely now never will make the kind of moves Justin makes so damn effortlessly. I enjoy every move the man makes, but he sure makes my playin’ seem awful ordinary and stiff!
Ohh hell yes!! Slap that depression right out of my brain Dr Johnson!! You absolutely beautiful piece humanity!!! Stay safe and healthy brother much love from the darkness of this deeply depressed mind to that beautiful light you shine out so bright 👏🏼👏🏼😘👍🏼
All my life I have this love for the blues and of course I have seen my fair share of great guitarists. But you, Justin, is the most talented in my book. Not only a guitar virtuoso but also extremely creative.
Been watching fingerstylist for 60 yrs. -- Best right hand finger rolls I've ever seen !
MAKES MY PANTS
WANNA GET UP N DANCE
✌🧡🙏
HA! Awesome comment
That's the title of an old Dr. Hook song from the 1970s - but yes, it's a great title anyway!
Just them first notes are enough for me to like....anything that Justin puts out is amazing....love your content JJ 🤘🏼😈🤘🏼
What a dazzling Star...has his own niche .own agenda and market..what a joy to listen too...in the moment of the moment styling style...this is a set apart Artist
We appreciate so much, you keeping this music alive.
Rolls along so gently in it’s own pervasive way. Such a persuasive sweet sound.👍
"OLD SCHOOL BLUES Like You’ve Never Heard", he didn't lie once. Sir you killed the intro. 0:00
You are awesome man
good sothin blues
So smooth makes you feel cool for just listening to it over and over and over and....
Every time I think of modern blues is all electric guitar boring hype , I listen to Justin and faith is restored to how modern blues should be played How modern blues can be played I thank you from my soul and heart ..........
Beautiful as always.
I would call this song "Bacon and scrambled eggs", because its delicious!
Отлично! Просто праздник какой-то👍👍👍
It all starts with maintaining the groove! Where it goes from there is pure gold!
This song makes me happy!!! Ya can't help to stomp your feet to it. Once again Justin never ceases to amaze!! Thanks for sharing
I threw my pick away about 4 years ago. I'm about 1% there after watching this.
And that is passion....recently discovered you, Justin - I love what you do & listening to/watching you play feeds my soul.
Who needs the rest of of the band when you sound this good.
Thank god we still have people like you being created!
Whoa, Justin, you make that Aussie guitar sing! This is one of your best videos to date. Thanks for sharing.
Every time we return here to listen to a new song you're giving us goosebumps! Justin, you rock! Keep the great music coming!
I love how you take full advantage of this string by improvising with it as a percussion instrument as well. Most enjoyable. Makes for good clogging music too. Thank you!
And he did it without a net. Great job Justin Johnson and thanks.
Can’t get enough of your work man. It’s my go to listen while I’m working. Respect from the U.K.
Sitting here enjoying the Texas Hill Country morning and this just tops it off beautifully
Now thats a lively tune! You always make the most incredible music JJ!
This guy's got rythm! Insane! I'd love to be able to play like that. Chapeau
Baby steps will get ya there.
Belissimo El Maestro ! " Ode to the Masters " and delivered by yours truly , as only befitting by you only . Cheers from NZ mate .
Justin "jesus of blues" Johnson, you were that one person that got me totally into blues and fingerstyle. 👍👍
WOW incredible!! Only Justin Johnson could play such a masterpiece🎸
Justin, Keep'n the Blues alive - Your a National Treasure. I just can't say it enough. Thank you. ~ your neighbor.
Wow! I'm impressed with this style of play. Freaking AWESOME!!!
Head bopping, toe tapping smiling as I go!!!!!
Thank you again for great vibes Justin!!!!!!
😎🍻🤘
Love your music - From this here, to the shovel slide, to all the rest - rooted in the "old style", but NOT "bound" to it ... Excellent.
Unmatched genius for a specific talent & skill displayed by Justin.
Listening a lot your stuff , especially in my truck, and I love this one a lot! Thanks man for all the miles under the hood!✌
I love this to pieces! You really can make any guitar sing! 🤘🎸
Gooood Gawd! So many of us need this in these times.
I can feel the train rolling on down the tracks. Awesome!
Thank you Justin Johnson for your genius and motivating me to keep practising fingerpicking every day!
I went ahead and liked it before I hit play. I knew he would bring the magic….🐝❤️🤗
Awesome!
What a gift to be able to see this
Keeping the music alive through love. Well done!
I’d call it .”Tryin’ to hop a Train” … because it feels like when I used to hop freight trains.. had to be fast on your feet.. missed a lot.. timing was everything.. and whether you caught it or not, that rhythm just kept going..
Keep On
Holy cow man. I used to hop too. West Georgia just outside of Atlanta
Awesome!!!
I see a lot of people on RUclips playing guitar and for me, you are the best one, congratulations!!!!
Flows like water out your fingers. I was along for the ride not care in the world about your destination. What a ride👍
Made my morning. Totally put a pep in my step and a smile to go along with it. What's there not to like. It's just different and awesome. Keep rocking us to the core with this sort of greatness. To coin a phrase for something that is just as awesome.
"See you space boy"
Cheers my friend and thank you.
Justin, knowing your affinity for whiskey and the feel of the tune, I'd call it, "Revenuer Blues"!
Keep On
Phenomenal! Oooof! 😍👍 Love the rhythm 🤎
Lawdy Mercy that is some mighty fine pickin! Guitar sounds great and Justin is getting the most out of it with his fantastic technique. Hats off sir. Hats off.
I said too myself that I will go to sleep when I hear something out of this man that I don't like. Haven't slept since. It's been years. Have mercy Justin. I need sleep!
The intro😍😍😍😍
Dang man, you're hands down my favorite blues guitarist. This piece combines things from all my faves...SRV speed, rl Burnside style, jj cale smoothness and still completely your own sound. Fu king amazing! 👏
Love me some RL Burnside!
Rolls right along , and pulls into the station masterfully. thank you
Dude, seriously. You are just straight magic 💯🧐👌🏼 woke up in a fine mood this morning, put this on. Now bopping round the house 🤷🤙🏼 thank you.
Tennessee Train
Sounds amazing dude loving the work you put out. Been looking for this style for a long time.
i'm legit too scared to ask for tabs... WTFFFFF
Dear Justin, you got a gift.
Bless you...
I want to wake up and be this great!!! I know it takes years love your JUSTIN
Thanks, Justin. I like your Buffalo Nickel ring. I'm as big a Buffalo Nickel fan as I am a Justin Johnson fan. I'm a coin collector and the Buffalo Nickel is my all-time fav design. I admire your artistry.
Спасибо за отличную музыку! У меня душа отдыхает при звучании гитары в руках этого человека.
У меня тоже !!!
You play so beautiful. Your long fingers are fantastic! I love your style. Thank you!🎸🎤⭐
Who would actually give this a thumbs down ! the man plays from the soul 🙌🍻
Awesome playing mate so glad you're playing a Maton and making it sound so effortlessly good ,a musician and his tools working in harmony...well wishes from Queensland, Australia
I’d love to watch Justin and Tommy Emmanuel sit down and jam together.
Crazy fingerstyle.... and that Maton is stunning in both looks and sound!!!
a most wonderful talent......after hundreds of hours of dedicated work!!!!!!
Not just the exquisite playing but always color coded with either the guitar or the background .
Damn yes Tabs please. That's gotta be the coolest song I've heard in a while!
Man this guy has some chops! I love how everything he plays just grooves
So sweet… keep exploring Justin. You make the world a better place.
You’re the man, JJ! 👍🏼👍🏼
I take it all Justin's guitars are fireproof
Well-lubed slick. Comfort and ease in doing whatever the moment calls for. Proof sonic that you do NOT need wheels to roll down that road...
What a great gift 🎁 TY !!
