Great playing! Really useful video. There are talented female blues artists out there - be nice to see a few added in the notable artists 😉

If this video reaches 30.000 I am doing detailed explanation of this or even a series.

[@thomasdelabarre6923]

Looks like I'll have to watch this 7000 times because I absolutely want the detailed explanation now 😁 awesome stuff man ! Great guitar chops !

[@richpeacock3973]

Very thorough and entertaining presentation! The subtypes of blues overlap at times, of course, but this is an excellent audio description of the basic styles.

A fan of the slower minor blues sound before I even knew what to call them.. west coast,delta and psychedelic blues are my favorite

[@Crossroad_Blues]

Chicago blues is best

[@QuinnJACKSON-zx1dx]

The Delta Blues sound deep and authentic. Out of all the sub-styles in your video, I had to play that section over and over.

[@bostonhayworth1264]

[@magnumopus1628]

They are all really beautiful. But my 3 favorites are: 1) Delta Blues *(the only on that gives me goosebumps)* 2) Psychedelic Blues 3) Jazz Blues

Excellent! Really like how you broke down these genres. Keep them coming.

[@jonathanbethards3689]

I would add ZZ Top to the Texas Blues list, for sure. They are often overlooked, as far as playing the blues goes, by too many folks. Saw them live and I am so happy that I did. *R.I.P. 'Dusty' Hill*

[@MaxTovstyiMusic]

Well to me they are more of a rock band rather than blues

Looking and waiting for a new type of Blues

[@peterbridge7940]

I really enjoyed that and when I have time I'll look for the interpretations which may or may not have been posted 😂 although I started playing 60 years ago, I've only really played for about 5 and 1/2 years and I did have a 51-year break and I'd never played any Blues until recently well, back in the sixes I've played some rhythm and blues; so is this going I play bass and I don't have a great ear for hearing changes in chords and I have damaged hearing from heavy metal concerts but I'm playing quite a lot of Blues at jam sessions BUT They are mainly 12 Bar Blues and I had never heard of an 8 Ball Blues until about a year ago so The various length of a blues 8. 12. 16 etc let's not forget nine ball Blues such as sitting on top of this world, and it seems there are quite a few one bar Blues..

[@emwi8743]

Also country blues he played

[@jonathanhathaway7796]

I'm with you. I've played blues for 40 years. Those different styles evolved in different areas, but we are exposed to it all, so it's natural to mix and add new ideas to it. Hendrix and Page brought new things to it, and any player should feel free to do the same. Some like to be faithful to keep the styles separate, and while I can do that, I'd prefer to mix and add.

[@malaquiasalfaro81]

@@jonathanhathaway7796 you can break down blues so much the work songs, Songs like Rosa Lee Hill’s music and boogie-Woogie are all their distinct things lol

Nice but your reference of Alvin Lee as west coast blues is incorrect as were many others... Not being critical just pointing out misses and hopefully you will check out some of these - West Coast - Johnny Moore, Oscar Moore, Pee Wee Crayton, Lowell Fulson, Along with some modern day players such as Hollywood Fats, Júnior Watson, Rick Holmstrom , Kid Ramos, Little Charlie, Kid Andersen,and many others That embraced what the originators started. Alvin Lee was a British blues based rock guitarist It really should not be listed.

whats make the differences? is it only riff or different scales? or only backing track and guitar sounds?

[@jakefeingold1126]

Amazing video and amazing playing!! You should add some examples of funk and fusion blues that came out of the seventies, like jiro inagaki, jaco pastorius, cortex, and nucleus

[@jakefeingold1126]

Then theres also alot of great swing and big band blues (ex big bad voodoo daddy, seatbelts)

[@MaxTovstyiMusic]

I have never heard about them, I think they’re too rare, i mean I knew bands who played doom blues and all that but that’s not really the blues

[@b.michael7275]

This is a good vid and your playing is superb but I'm pretty sure Brit blues is more akin to Rock'n'roll than actual blues. While they may have covered blues musicians a lot, I think they had plenty more in common with Chuck Berry and Bill Haley than the artists they paid tribute.

[@BayAreaMike99]

5:55 also possibly John Mayer

[@luissiu3984]

John mayer doesn’t play jazz at all, he is more of a funk blues hybrid. He is also heavily influenced by srv

One question. Are blues and jazz separate or is one a subgenre of the other?

[@MaxTovstyiMusic]

Those are two different genres tho there are many jazz songs that have bluesy feels in it like All Blues - Miles Davis etc by playing I IV V progression and some jazzy feel for blues songs like Stormy Monday etc.

[@MrCbrann]

While I appreciate the effort and I certainly cannot play as well as you, I didn't think you caught the style differences very well, particularly the particular sound timbre of some of the musicians would have helped. Much of the music was the same tempo and the solos could have been an example of most of those styles (but not all).

[@netomusic_br]

It all sounds the same to mee. Yeah. That’s the idea.

[@zeeochance]

Let's just agree that it's British, not the Blues.

[@altaimountain]

sounds about the same

[@derekemrie2987]

No K.C. blues, AKA "Jump Blues", gues you can't have it all, well they're all just variations on a common blues scale, and blues progessions.
