Blues Guitar with Will McFarlane

[@utahprepper8925]

Man, the first five minutes of this video contain some of the best guitar playing I've heard in decades! Bravo!

[@evetssorc]

Saw Will with Bonnie Raitt back in the 70's. Great show and Will was a wonderful accompanist for her. Greetings from the country with the national key of "eh"

[@malcolmbenn1051]

That was brilliant, I haven't enjoyed a session like this as much in years.

[@telerooo5213]

How fun is Will? He is just always great fun, to listen to him play and tell great stories.....

[@davidzaharik5408]

I met Will at a Guitar Gathering a few years ago, (like 7).... I was hanging out listening to a lesson when Will strolled in, nonchalantly, he walked over to me and we started chatting. I had NO idea he was our next master class.... we had a great conversation and he was so funny. Next thing Will is on stage astonishing us and making us all laugh with stories from being on the road in the 60s... THEN the highlight of the night we had a blues jam and Will asked if he could stay... imagine playing a blues solo in Em with Will McFarlane on stage!!! What a night! Magnificent night and great man!

Kudos to you Steve for staying back even when you really want to play bad. Will is the kinda guy you grab and play with if he lets you play. God bless him.

[@Fezzler61]

Love this guy. A few years back I sent him a note and he sent me a few tracks. He can sing!!!!

[@musicmatty67]

I love Will’s fantastic stories and such great knowledge. He truly is an amazing player with such a great style.

[@grog5564]

Another great Live Lesson Steve. Makes me wish I could have gone to the Gathering to see more of him. Thanks Steve, for all that you do!

[@briang5586]

Great Steve. Just Iike the good old days at Gruhn's. Many thanks.

I finally had time to watch this incredible interaction and education by Will McFarland. I didn't comprehend all of what he said. However, that drives me and hopefully others to explore and expand our theory knowledge. Thank You!

[@peterknudson9106]

Fantastic. Wish we could have joined live virtually Thursday. Thank you.

[@MesaGuitarGuy]

dang, I'm 67 and have been playing since I was 19 and I've learned so much from this video. Thanks Will

[@johnparsons661]

Will McFarlane is always a joy to listen to. He could do a traveling show just talking and playing.

[@garynelson8668]

So glad I was able to join in person. This was a blast!

[@michaelbaldwin6543]

Awesome show Steve. Such a cool dude. Thanks.

[@MikeO-dr7hn]

Thanks so much! Listening to Will speak reminded me that many, many years ago Will played on the Terrance Boylan album 'Suzy'. Some very creative guitar work that enriched me greatly. Will's tune "$50 an Hour" is a standout on that record for the writing and creative acoustic playing (as always).

[@Triolian4]

One of the most fun interviews I have heard. Love this guy!!

[@ronaldlemons2836]

this guy is so amazing just so transparent to be able to help people,in short he gets what is important.

[@jumpskirt]

Love me some Will McFarlane! He's so humble, and so talented. Thanks so much for the video.

[@fanoboss]

Will and his family are truly amazing humans. ❤

[@jonmike678]

So good to see Will back, an absolute legend!

[@renwickconolly2839]

Great playing from you both..Great stories..Awesome session..Thank You!

[@richardcroce1022]

What a great show. You guys together were magic. God bless.

[@colakeith1]

This was just WONDERFUL!!!

[@jimcastaneda]

Thanks for sharing Will

[@vltjd]

Great fun. Thanks Will and Steve.

[@markmelville6670]

Just love this guy.

[@victorimmature]

Gary Less put me on to this place . Very Nice .

[@rigelloar7474]

This is blues, but it's not just licks and facile playing. Both of these guys improvise with a strong narrative quality, analogous to a "story", with MELODIC point and purpose. I dig it!

[@michaelknight4041]

Yea you can play a pentatonic scale over a blues and it will work just fine and don't get me wrong alot of great songs are just that. But there's nothing like hearing someone that really knows how to play with the changes and has a wide enough "vocabulary" to really bring out great melodic ideas like this. I love rock but some of my favorite players come from a jazz background. When the two are combined in the right way like Larry Carlton with Steely Dan or Steve Howe with Yes the results are always awesome.

[@rigelloar7474]

@@michaelknight4041 Oh Yeah!

[@Earl00001]

Can you please re-upload the episode with Will wearing that Gibson t shirt and playing a Les Paul. There were some musical nuggets in that episode. Thank you

[@folkrock4u]

Excellent. Thanks to both of you.

[@larrygarnett]

Someone I truly would like to meet.

[@tbluesboye]

Wicked awesome Will!

[@davidpatrick1813]

Thank you. I learned a lot of new things and names and history. Thanks for sure.

[@miike48]

Thank you so much! Educational and fun!

[@jayanderson8563]

1st time for everything & glad I checked you out although I've been subscribed for a while. Good show!

[@annehill6432]

Enjoyed listening.

[@blueskyguitar772]

What a great storyteller l!

[@TheBotsra]

This was fun. Just what musicians supposed too.

[@kevinclose5840]

Awesome players Awesome stories,thanks

[@rosana3750]

Genio enseña todo el tiempo

[@fleadoggreen9062]

Smoove !!

[@alansenecal5548]

FYI y'all, listening to this you've only heard about 10% of the info in Will's head. As a very mediocre guitar player, hanging out with Will is very cool. One of the many things Will said to me was, "You just be you, do what you do." (Regarding not being a very good musician.)

[@RedBearTrading]

Dude! 3:39 - 3:45 is THE MONEY!

[@EasyBreather000]

What guitar is Will playing ?

[@roberttorrance731]

National key of Canada 🇨🇦 😂

[@folkrock4u]

You know this video isn't really about "Blues Guitar" right?

[@bransemlin56]

Will is a legend!
