The Robben Ford Lick that Changed My Playing FOREVER

This blazing Robben Ford lick that he plays on "Ain't Got Nothing But The Blues" was a game-changer for me. Filled with jazzy inflections, great tone and gorgeous vocabulary, I knew that this was the style of guitar playing that I needed to play from that point on.

You are the reason I wished I’d taken Music at university instead of Geography. I know where I am in the world but not on the fretboard.😞

Matt Schofield does something using the same scale and chord in 'sitting on top of the world ' fewer notes but how he throws it in just gives you the shivers

After 30yrs as a Rock hack, never attempted a jazzy thing. So, thank you for initiating a noob... beautiful tone, and lesson.

Robben continues to fly under the radar, which is crazy. He should get WAY more recognition.

Sometimes you feel you are stuck in a particular rut and every time you pick up the guitar you play the stuff in different places on the neck! I find playing more complex chord sequences that change keys and then trying to solo over the loop until you know it inside out helps you discover new things.
Great easy to understand video.

I hear your discovery of Robben Ford, and.. there could be my face in your video :)

that record came out and blues guitar changed for all of us.

Dude the tone is killer! Love Robben Ford as well. Great lesson.

[markrogers]

One of the best lessons I've ever watched on YouTube. There's just enough playing and talking to deliver true understanding to the viewer. Thanks!

[timknobloch]

Sounds really good, Robben is a great combo of blues and jazz guitar, but he can rock out if he wants to.

[babagadoush]

Thank you for including tabs, sharing and the work that went into producing this.

[guyinpei]

Nice lesson with good production too. Seems to me that Robben used to play hipper, jazzier lines back in the 80's and 90's. 😊

I was on my way to narrowing down the online YouTube guitar classes, but now I just added one more guitar player thanks for making the decision hard for me. I appreciate everything that I've seen and heard from you so far. 👍

Great lesson. Perfect for music school graduates with 20 plus years of practice and experience.

The very strong point of Robben Ford is his "DYNAMIC" that enhance every notes that he plays. I was stunned to hear him playing. Cherrs from Indonesia.

Cool lick and great breakdown of these complicated concepts.
