Grew up in Chicago and was lucky enough to see many Blues legends. Playing the Blues is far more about feeling the song rather than just knowing the chords. Few people play blues as Slowly as it was meant. You can’t play the blues too Slow… thanks Marty, always tasty and served perfectly.🎼

As someone with pretty severe wrist tendinitis, I have a hard time doing the traditional “blues” riff with the 5 note going to the 6 (and especially the b7). I really like how you showed all the variations of the E and A chords. Thanks!

Actully just blew my mind Marty I’ve been wanting to play blues and I’ve been overwhelmed and overthinking but this def helped and expanded my blues playing thx man

[dougsmith]

🎸 When I wanted to return to fundamentals… I know I can always rely on Marty… Thank you Marty for all you do!

This is an absolutely phenomenal walk-through. The way you build from the absolute basics and just add little things up until the end is such an amazing way to learn guitar IMO. Very helpful, thank you!

[RCSmiths]

Can never go wrong with blues guitar playing. So simplistic, but very intricate!

[tednorman]

[arundel]

That was an awesome lesson, dude. Reminds me of, the 3 kings, chucks, and muddy waters, during the lesson!!!

one of these blues videos started a lot off for me thanks marty from north west england

[zhap]

Thank you for the videos all these years Marty. Can't believe how time flies :)

I don't know if you take request but would be very appreciative if you uploaded a video on how to play the love and hate solo by Michael Kiwanuka. It might be my favorite song - on par with comfortably numb.

[jaybird]

Marty brother I just wanna say thank you you're a inspiration. You've helped me out so much on guitar 🎸 again Thank you

[leonschmiel]

I love that lesson ... Really gave me some inspiration to play something else than my standard 12bar blues

[tylerbehrends]

Hey is there anyway you could make a playlist for stuff like this? Blues runs, licks, etc.

There stuff from years and years ago and I’m struggling to track it all down 😅

[carinao]

I love how he always flexes on us for the first minute of every video

[fluke_x]

Marty, you’ve done it again. Intriguing video. This is going in to the lesson bank. 💥
