Hey Marty, I'm doing my junior cert levels for music and I'm asking you what song would be suitable to learn?

[@daniellarson3068]

Thanks Marty. This was sooo much easier than meeting the devil at those crossroads at midnight and foregoing my soul.

A friend is gonna let me see a video about this based on a movie cause he heard I like learning the blues and 50 songs

the amount of swag in that intro is off the charts.

Agreed

I learned that same lick from watching young Dewey Cox play the blues lmao

[@hesdribbling2352]

This is like an awakening for me, I'm a newer guitarist and something about blues makes my brain work

[@satyanpatel6403]

Blues makes everyone's brain work. It's a blast to play once you get the hang of it. Your gonna wish you started sooner.

I’m like chilling with smoke on the water and beat it, you’re probably way better

Yep

Just started learning guitar and I honestly dont think I would have progressed so fast were it not for your channel. You are a great teacher and awesome player. Here's to another 5 years.

How is it going my man?

[@adamlewis116]

Hey Marty. I’ve been following you for 14 years and I really appreciate how you simplify and break everything down so clearly. I remember talking to you on the phone back in, I think, 2012 and you gave me so much inspiration. This video is great, because I fell off guitar when my pops died. I would lay this very same 12 bars down for him and he’s riff over it while smoking his Camels. I just want to tell you that I’m back playing and you’re the first person I searched for to get started again. I can’t tell you enough how much I appreciate your knowledge of playing guitar has inspired me over the years. Thank you, brother.

[@Oljankylegs]

Sad but awesome guitar story, I hope playing brings you some happiness

[@RC32Smiths01]

Blues is where it truly hits home for me! Thank you for a great lesson as always.

[@dankro1782]

Thanks for your great lessons. Just started playing again for the first time in 35 years. You are the best instructor I’ve found

[@aaronberg1618]

Thank you so very much Marty! I'm 52 and learning guitar again after dropping it for 23 years. Not new to the 12 bar blues but you really helped me to add all the stuff I always wanted but was stuck in a rut. I never had all these you tube videos to learn from when I started to learn guitar and I am in guitar heaven now with your videos especially. You cheer me up, you make me laugh and you help me with all those things about the BLUES I wanted but was frustrated with before we had you tube videos. You and Steve Stiner are my GUITAR GODS of you tube Guitar Teachers.

[@Daltonhow2]

Yo Marty, we met backstage once at the Belly Up just when you were starting out.. Glad to see you doing so well! Keep it up!

[@MartyMusic]

What’s up Jason!! Hope you’ve been well my man!

This should be a mandatory video for people getting started. Can't beat Marty!

[@padraigodriscoll986]

Agreed

[@dbwilljr68]

I highly recommend Marty's 12 Bar Blues Lesson!! It has helped me tremendously!!

[@jaseborn5474]

put it down and come back to it so you dont get frustrated was the best advice in the video tbh

[@arturom9145]

I see you’ve turned to the dark side with the new fedora

[@MrJsc0606]

Just this short video you've unlocked so much for me... I will be hitting up your site.

[@ThomasDaroja-gd4ex]

3yrs ago, I learn so much from you. Really hope you still growing strong. Thanks for your efforts. Your teaching is really helping. Thanks again

[@johnharris7353]

For some reason Marty's lessons seem more graspable than others.

[@jonbarstow5748]

I crush all of your lessons daily and I never skip a beginner blues lesson. They are always dope.

[@musicplaylists64]

On chapter 4 of "beginner blues" wow you are such a great teacher. You take so much time and patience to slowly build everything up. Thanks for everything Marty! You are the best guitar teacher I have found.

[@cgo5161]

I just started using my dads old strat and I already know teen spirit, smoke on water and now I’m tryna get the 12 bar blues down, with no lessons, all thanks to Marty!

[@PhryTheBreather]

Marty, I’ve been watching for 10 years man and it’s only now just hit how much you’ve helped me in my guitar playing. It took me this long to decide to really put some time in since I first began with taking notes off you in High school. Thanks for always being there brotha! 💖

[@ramdabum]

hope the neighbours are ready to hear some blues

[@Lark_]

I love it how you manage to make a single video friendly for both beginners and advanced. I really enjoyed what you did on 5:26, and it is there everything you need to have more ideas for an advanced player. The rest of the video also serves pretty well to refresh the memory.

[@coltenbustos7114]

Once I get done working on this house and moving ive gotta get back to your videos. Thank you for all the information, and motivation!

[@madzster2008]

omg. i effing love this lick. first thing i've learnt aside from 7 nation army and i love it

[@connorstevenson1173]

Cannot like enough. Dude you are legend!!!!!!!

[@lisarush8030]

I love the blues! Wonderful instructions! Thank you so much, for all your free lessons. You’re the main reason, I picked the guitar back up at 55. One request, Lonely People by America.

Plot Twist: Marty was sent from Heaven to teach us how to play guitar so nobody repeats the Robert Johnson deal

Brilliant tuition ! Many thanks Marty 👍🇬🇧

[@alvaroviloria2098]

Marty, I discovered your channel when starting to learn guitar 3 years ago, I'm almost 40 now, and I always wanted to play guitar. I remember the first time I saw the 12 bar blues video. I spent days playing and playing and counting and counting, must of it struggling and trying to do it correctly, especially with the turnaround. I appreciate your effort and patience in putting all this together, and as well the online lessons. I've concluded some of those lessons. Those helped me understand the blues and guitar concepts deeper. And well, now I'm found myself doing for fun 12 bar blues, mixing cools stuff, creating loops, and having fun with some improvs. So Marty, Thanks a lot! Your lessons helped me achieve one of my dreams, and every day I check your new videos to see with which I'll deep dive. If possible, could you do a techinque lesson to understand the concepts behind Joe Bonamassa licks and blues rhythm guitar? Thanks

[@chrisrosencrans]

The ad for the video was your ad. You’ve done it. You beat KZbin

[@jeb.c.1063]

Marty... I am simply happy for you because you are happy with what you are doing. More power to you!

[@jesseyounger8241]

Love the shirt!

[@torydrake2846]

Thanks Marty for this blues riff. Im a beginner player with years of music between my ears, this riff has been in my head for like a month and all the videos were more advanced even one you did prior. So thanks for this video, i will be working on it all week!!

[@QuintinHerweyer]

I’m never gonna stop playing this sound

[@kbarnes70]

Thanks Marty!!! I would definitely love to see more Blues videos!!! Truly appreciate and love all you have to offer us!!! 50 years young and learning how to play the Blues and other genres too!!! You're never to old to start learning an instrument or anything new for that matter; it keeps you young and alive!!! Thanks again Sir!!!!

[@hawkmanaus]

God bless you Marty! I've been playing along with your videos on and off for a many years. You break it down and make it so easy to pick up.

[@pauljonathanpeters8125]

I liked the bit at the end there Marty. Very smart. Thanks.

Hey Marty thanks for showing me the 12 bars the easy step beginner style I could follow Jerry Lee Lewis rock in the night away appreciate your lessons definitely going to support one of your blues programs.

Great tone! And gotta love hitting that V at the end of the turnaround!

I subscribed to Marty's 15 video course on beginners 12 bar blues. I've tried other intros to this, but Marty's is hands down the best out there.

[@heavensent4048]

Yo Marty, i’m learning how to play the guitar really fast after meeting a guy on a crossroad, it was a very interesting/off feeling interaction but he taught me a few songs and i thank him for that he also brought me to your channel so thank him🖤❤️

[@biglerch78]

Such good stuff. This is the first time I've really felt like I was jamming. Awesome lesson

[@jefflhama]

As a complete begginer of everything guitar you made me comfy to go full blues while learning the basics of the basics, because I was really bored by all the starter things when I want to blues everything out.

best blues tutorial ive seen yet. love metal, tolerate country but the blues, thats what i want to do.

I really hope to be this good one day! Thanks for all the work you put out over the years

[@georgekerry6530]

Great lesson Marty, you're definitely a top chap, great manner. Thanks George

[@RingsOfSolace]

Two things. One: lots or aha moments here for me. The boogie riff just being an implied chord blew my effing mind. Two: recording 100 videos before even starting the channel was both risky and ingenious for taking advantage of the algorithm. Much respect for you, and I'm so glad that it worked out for you.

[@El_Pimpin_Shizz]

Here is a playlist of material that i learned and found on youtube that really helped me understand blues in general. It also has other things like general beginner things and stuff thats important too know like soloing stuff. I suggest you learn the thing in order of the playlist and see what and where would help you. kzbin.info/aero/PLnMMOX2cjcy7j0gLX44DovCJjxVnhunyV * General Beginner things * Fun heavy and punk lessons * Finger Picking * The Blues and how to get started and advance on * Improvising, soloing and general licks * History of pioneering and legendary guitarist to help you build your style and inspire
