Caledonia Guitar Lesson By Johnny Burgin ft Skyler Saufley

[@abrigospardos]

That was super cool! "Caldonia" or "Caledonia" (I'm never sure how to spell it) must have been the first jump blues I ever listened to, way before I knew what a jump blues was, of course... There are tons of great versions around, from Eddie Vinson to Muddy, and B.B. to Gatemouth Brown... The list goes on! It's been played as a swing number, a rockabilly tune, a jump blues, you name it... What a great song, thank you Johnny and Skyler!

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

thanks so much Abrigospardos. It's truly a 'gottaknow' song!

Bien por esa rola es buena interpretacion, saludos

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

thanks so much Vidal! keep pickin!

[@aureliobrighton1871]

Oh thank you for that shimmering beauty. Ever since I heard Muddy and Pinetop swing and 'rap' her I wanted to wrap my strings around Cal'donia. But you know with her kind of feet ... she was just to quick away. I also love the Winter-Muddy-Cotton take on 'Breakin it Up'. Enough ... all the best from Munich, Bavaria 🌻:)

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

thank you very much! all the best and hope our paths cross in DE one day

Great duo....you should play live. As usual a great lesson and lots to take in.....I can't keep up at the moment! Lol.🔥

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

Just take your time! Thanks Paul!

[@trampasnewberry2626]

What a great lesson. I hate that it took me until today to get to it. Skylar’s jump blues and bebop seasonings were such a great mix! This is a buffet of great information and I’ll have to watch it a few more times to soak it all up. Thanks so much Johnny. I always pick up something new to learn or listen to with your lessons. Thanks brother!

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

Right on Trampas! Thank you man!

[@CoyoteSlim]

amazing how you can play together like that. I can barely accompany myself. Bravo!

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

I thought this was Robin Trower's song Caledonia . ✨✨✨✨🎸✨✨✨✨

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

Lol! Thanks for watching!

Hey Johnny, I loved this lesson! If your looking for a rhythm lesson , Jimmy Johnson...feel so bad!

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

Right on Greg thanks a lot!

[@rickperlstein9988]

I feel like you had that ax back in college.

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

that was the rickenbacker back then. but they're both tiny red guitars lol. HNY Rick and thanks!

[@trampasnewberry2626]

Johnny did you notice if Skylar was using any Nocturne Brain pedals or pre amps? Just listening to you guys play I hear him making an octal tube amp amp sound which is so period correct on a lot of the covers song videos I referenced him playing after watching this. Folks check out Skyler on KZbin. Great singer and player.

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

thanks trampas, he went straight into an amp.

[@trampasnewberry2626]

@@JohnnyBurginBlues oh ok thanks. It sounded like he was getting that pre tweed octal tube sound. I’ve downloaded the LJ version and the EH song you mentioned. Great suggestions.

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

@@trampasnewberry2626 you do have a good ear! he had some fabulous small tweed amp that I have already forgotten what it was!

[@trampasnewberry2626]

@@JohnnyBurginBlues those octal tube amps break up in a distinct way. Very different than anything else. There’s a few folks that make pre amps to get those early sounds

[@skylersaufley9733]

Good ear! I was playing straight into an old Valco amp 😎

[@gregdionne2137]

Can't really see what Skyler is doing Johnny. You'll have to have him back for a remake.

[@JohnnyBurginBlues]

Point taken, thanks Greg. It's a work in progress lol
