    Holy light bulb moment. Jeff said A is SPELT and listed the notes. What an awesome way to look at memorizing the notes in a chord. If i look at it like a spelling bee for my younger students I think it will be a game changer. Thanks guys!!!!

    Robert Lockwood Jr says in an interview with the Blues Wax on taptime app I think thats the name of the app. But anyways to the point. Lockwood Jr. Said that he developed that to accompany the harp of Little Walter to help Little Walter's harp sound better. And man does it ever. You said it yourself papastache, u can use it to accompany a singer as well. It sounds great. Robert Jr. Also said that he was like the 1st person who began using the electric guitar for blues music on some radio station I think it was in Arkansas somewhere around Turkey Scratch Arkansas where he was born. Maybe King Biscuit or something like that.

    Papa remember I sent you a picture about six years back of Muddy Waters Jr. and me from the Little Walter Festival. Walter was raised in my town and we had the festival for years until the city counsel shut it down due to funding, they would rather spend the money on some two bit circle jerk City Counsel retreat meeting out of town and motel expenses instead of entertainment for the tax paying citizens. Little Walter’s daughter would show up every year in honor of her father, she is a real sweet, nice, caring person. I took pics of every DVD and CD I had that Muddy Waters and Walter ever made. I showed them to Mud Jr. and we took several pics together, he said man you have every DVD, CD, and record my Dad ever made, the least you could do is buy my one CD. I told him I did, I said I bought it off of Little Walter’s daughters husband while you were getting ready for your set, he looked at the CD and said, man are you kidding me, he sold you Walter’s CD, that’s some BS. LOL We all laughed and had a great time. I was going to ask to play guitar and harp with him but on his latest CD he has Kim Wilson from the Fabulous Thunderbirds playing. We all had a blast that day, B.B. King’s band performed and there was a guy from Houston in the band that celebrated his 93 birthday, he played for B.B. since the 1950’s. Great video and thanks for posting it. 🎸✌️

    HA The title of this video is what I always say!! Ugh Im tired of playing blues!! Thats how I taught myself to play back in the day. With 3 four 5 other guys we used to jam regularly at all the keg parties and my moms bar. Then got pretty good at playing lead.. then a few years later leaving those guys because our drummer got really messed up in a bad car wreck. So from there we all went our seperate ways. Still jamming to the blues every blue moon. But, cover tunes and ORIGINALS is what came next. BUT damn after watching the beginning of this video, if I could play chords like the dude with the strat, I wouldnt be at all tired of playing the blues!! I play more like Poppa does in the beginning of this video,, Not that its bad Poppa but it does tend to get boring!! Now I am SUBBED just because of the 1st minute 28 seconds of this video. I just had to say that! Lemme stop blabbing now and watch the rest of this video and maybe an old dog can learn some new tricks!!! Thanks you guys!!
