Your playing and feel here is absolutely stellar! Voodoo Child (No Slight Return) Vibes! So cool 😎 Will gives me hours of practice getting it to flow freely I think. Thanks Tom!
I think Muddy Water's version was called Rolling Stone, which is where the Rolling Stones got their name. This riff has been adapted and used in many songs including Jimi Hendrix's Voodoo Chile
Excellent video. Anyone can play notes but doing it with the right feel and phrasing is another story. You have a real feel for the blues and are a talented guitarist.
Fantastic Blues lesson Thom! Gotta love the Mud Cat & that picture of him with the cigarette hanging out of his mouth is priceless! Happy Holidays to you & your family!
Hi Tom! an other Tom (Tomas) here, at 11:03 no need for 2 finger to do bend if you use 0.8 or even 0.7 strings (like Billy F Gibbons). The bend is easy with Gibson length scale (24.75″) or more easy with PRS (Santana signature 24,5'') and so on ... (Fender Jaguar and Mustang 24''). But if you stick with strato ok, put some light string an make your live easyest.
Here's one version of the lyrics ... RIP, Muddy! "Well, I wish I was a catfish Swimmin' in the deep blue sea I'd have all you women Fishin' after me Fishin' after me Fishin' after me Well, I'm broke and I'm hungry Ragged and I'm dirty too Well, if I clean up, baby, can I Stay home with you Stay home with you Stay home with you If I can't, can't come in Let me sit down front of your door I'll leave so early, your Mom won't know Won't never know Won't never know Oh, I know, know my baby Well, she's going to jump and shout When my train pulls in and I I come walkin' out Come walkin' out Come walkin' out Yes, I'm goin', babe I'm goin' And your crying won't make me stay Oh, the more you cry, baby More I'll go away More I'll go away More I'll go away Well now I know, I know you don't want me Why in the world won't you tell me so? Then I won't be caught, baby, 'round Your house no more Your house no more Your house no more"
i turn 53 in april. kickflip on a skateboard is nothing special, but still makes me happy every time. can do just this trick all day long. ; ) thx for this nice guitar lesson, mate.
Do you know what? This sounds very reminiscent of Eric Clapton's take on "Ramblin' on My Mind". These riffs are transportable over songs and genres. Good work mate! Really enjoy your content. Keep going!
Hear My Train a Comin from Live at Berkeley, is the other Jimi Catfish/Hoochie Coochie hybrid, that is more intricate and has a very different change, than most blues.
I want to thank you for your lesson on the Shadows Apache... helped me in a few spots I was having trouble with. I first heard it on the album Wheels by the Phantoms. 👍🎸🎸
Nicely played! From one guitar teacher to another, I appreciate your enthusiasm too. In a world of seemingly never-ending shredding, people are missing out on simple, heartfelt expression through simpler playing. 🙂
At the end of Gregg Allman's official video of Muddy Water's song "Love The Life I Live", he tells the band that their licks was just bonafide nasty! Catfish is one of those licks - just nasty!!! I miss Gregg - the greatest blues singer of our time.....in my very humble opinion of course
I've been watching the very well-made videos for a long time and they teach me something every time. Not only is the acting great, but there's always the right soundtrack. Where does it come from?
Was your strat olympic white or was it already vintage white? I'd love my olympic, white strat to end up looking like yours! Thanks for your inspiring videos!

I am 80 and still playin it ;O) Thank you for posting.
So great to hear someone honor our great artists. Thanks for highlighting Muddy in a brilliant way.
You caught me... and reeled me in - with this "Catfish Blues".
Bravo! Great lesson and performance.
damnit I had to figure this shit out for myself 30 years ago and now you're just giving it away >:( Muddy Waters taught me so much.

You're right, Pilgrim. I'm eighty years old, and I'm playing that riff like I'm Muddy Waters in a bad mood, and I'm so happy.
Excellent video. Anyone can play notes but doing it with the right feel and phrasing is another story. You have a real feel for the blues and are a talented guitarist.
Fantastic Blues lesson Thom! Gotta love the Mud Cat & that picture of him with the cigarette hanging out of his mouth is priceless! Happy Holidays to you & your family!
If you turned this into strictly a blues channel, it will explode!!

back to the roots of music, I love it !! 👍🎵🎶🎸
This is great! So basic but so many ways to throw in a bluesy melody and improvise. You really have “the touch” …. Love your videos!
Here's one version of the lyrics ... RIP, Muddy!
"Well, I wish I was a catfish
Swimmin' in the deep blue sea
I'd have all you women
Fishin' after me
Fishin' after me
Fishin' after me
Well, I'm broke and I'm hungry
Ragged and I'm dirty too
Well, if I clean up, baby, can I
Stay home with you
Stay home with you
Stay home with you
If I can't, can't come in
Let me sit down front of your door
I'll leave so early, your
Mom won't know
Won't never know
Won't never know
Oh, I know, know my baby
Well, she's going to jump and shout
When my train pulls in and I
I come walkin' out
Come walkin' out
Come walkin' out
Yes, I'm goin', babe I'm goin'
And your crying won't make me stay
Oh, the more you cry, baby
More I'll go away
More I'll go away
More I'll go away
Well now I know, I know you don't want me
Why in the world won't you tell me so?
Then I won't be caught, baby, 'round
Your house no more
Your house no more
Your house no more"
Merry Christmas to you, your family, everyone there at Guitar Pilgrim and to all the subscribers. 🎅
Merry Xmas to you too Craig!

thx for this nice guitar lesson, mate.
Gary Moore did a song called Ball and Chain seems to be based on this. Killer riff.
Drop dead great blues by the great Muddy Waters, excellent lesson. Best advice yet, play soft with feel.
Einfach nur gigantisch!🎸🎶👍💥
Sie spielen so herrlich locker und entzückend die E- Gitarre! Respekt!👏👏

That's a nice way of looking at it. Soulful playing, Mr.
One of the most famous riffs in the world. ❤❤❤
woww what a great content, what a passion for the guitar. love it!
Jimi Hendrix “Voodoo Chile” on the Electric Ladyland album is 15 minutes of pure heaven based on this riff.
Hear My Train a Comin from Live at Berkeley, is the other Jimi Catfish/Hoochie Coochie hybrid, that is more intricate and has a very different change, than most blues.
@@CorbCorbin ah yes good call. I love that whole Berkeley show!
He was really on form and absolutely incredible@@cato451
Isn't it Voodoo child?
@@CorbCorbin
yes ,

What an amazing Jimi song that is
I had almost forgotten about it
Cheers for the wake up
"Well I wish I was a catfish. swimming in the deep blue sea - I'd have all you pretty women fishing after me"
Dang! I know I’m gonna keep my wife up all night tapping my foot in my sleep. 😜 SO GOOD! Thx
Super!!! As you say, enough for a lifetime of pleasure....! Credit to MW for his genius, and to you for yours.
I want to thank you for your lesson on the Shadows Apache... helped me in a few spots I was having trouble with. I first heard it on the album Wheels by the Phantoms. 👍🎸🎸

Man you are one of my favorites. Keep it up guy.
The first teacher to stress the importance of playing soft. I feel like I’m playing better already. 👍
Wonderful. Best lesson I've seen on You Tube.
you can make a living with that. Lots of guys have.
Thanks always..have a blessed holiday❤

Great feeling!! Blues at it's best.
Nice, very, very nice. Thanks a lot from Italy.
Excellent tutorial and lovely playing.
Thanks. Brilliant 😎👍 Happy 2024!
Loving this! What effects are you using on the guitar? Delay or reverb?
Your best video this year!
Great episode - simple blues are usually the best.
Nice, thank you! Those riffs transposed into the appropriate key would work well with Muddy's Hoochie Coochie Man.
Great tone
Great player. You go deep in that blues
I really like Gary Clark Jr's version of Catfish Blues from the Live 2014! Slightly spicier than the original
Another wonderful lesson. 👏👏👏
Very cool ! Thanks for explaining this.
Excellent!
I've been watching the very well-made videos for a long time and they teach me something every time. Not only is the acting great, but there's always the right soundtrack. Where does it come from?
Love it!
Love this, thank you
Great blues lessons 😎. Thanks
Yep that Muddy Waters Catfish Blues riff is the greatest as it is used in so many songs.
Excellent White Boy Blues.
Yes. Again. Less Is More !
Lasting Happiness Is Internal, Eternal. 🤸🎠🤸🙉
Excellent man...just Excellent!
Thank you sooooomuch!
Luv it 2 pieces
Great❤ playing too hard is one of my every day struggle. But i dont give up✌️
Love this and am going to learn it. Thanks.
Great video, thanx. Blessings.
Nice one! Thanks. Will be boring everyone with this over Christmas....
The perfect tone - in addition to the great playing! Would you consider sharing your thoughts on gear and tone? Would make for another nice video.
Soooo good. Thank you💯
Excellent video lesson

Tu es un super gars ! Un super pédagogue, et un putain de bon Guitariste😉
Happy New Year!!
Hi Tom!
Lot of skill in there ! 🙂 That's blues!
Enjoyed it man.
Amazing lesson! "You Gotta Move" By Stones is also based on this.
Complimenti......🙂
Killed it! Ty
GREAT!
Brilliant,that's why I want to play with you.
I LOVE this ❤
Your tone is amazing, very hard to mimic
Steve Marriot of Humble Pie does this one great.But alas, I guess they ripped it off and called it "Rolling Stone". Still worth a listen.
Isn't there at A7 in there somewhere? Good Lord this is fun to play...
Marvellous 👌👍
Was your strat olympic white or was it already vintage white? I'd love my olympic, white strat to end up looking like yours! Thanks for your inspiring videos!
I really like his playing and the sound.,.wonder, what Amp that is
And zz top did brown sugar with this riff.
🤘😎
I don’t know if it’s your pickups or amp, but your tone is always great.
Brilliant👍👍
Showin’ out!!!
My 19th favourite.
Tasty 😎🤠🎸
