Dennis Dullea Gives Jimmy Reed Lesson

[@merkur8777]

Nothing better than a simple riff with killer tone by a great talent.

[@MrSlider5]

thanks for this great lesson! I heard Billy Gibbons say he was influenced by Jimmy Reed and did a search on youtube, found your lesson. Man! It's so great! I'm 52 years old and have been playing for a long while and now..I think I'm starting to get the hang of it. You're a great teacher.

Thank you

[@SIXSTRING63]

Nice vid Dennis. I've folks say that those kind of blues rhythms are easy. Well ! they are not easy to play as smooth and fluid as you do. It takes a great feel and touch to play like that and you timing has to be spot on to make that progression flow. Nice job Brother !!! Mike

[@RevMuddy]

I Thank all of you for your kind words. I'm gonna do a vid of my right hand and post it just for grins..OK? Rev

[@kemposoefi]

Could you play like a full CD, I could hear your great sound on and on. Thanks for sharing!

[@RevMuddy]

Hi Mr. Slider, It's a Fender 1965 Deluxe Reverb RI but the reverb your hearing is coming from a Fender 65DR Pedal that has digital reverb on it. I know....it's a messbut what the hay?? Thank you for your kind comments.............Dennis

One of the best blues lessons on youtube.. however.. I ordered that DVD, and it's not working and got no reply from you, Sir.. - update: it is working on Windows just it was not on Linux and Mac due codec encryption I guess..

[@paulcooper5748]

great stuff love it what amp you using.

[@paulafranceschi]

Very tasty. Thanks.

[@MrSebb1994]

great lesson did you play with or without plectrum ?

[@CrazyHenkie777]

hi Dennis, great lesson. Can you tell me what your right hand is doing while playing the bass-line? Is it just downstrokes or up an down?

[@Scorhos]

Bart J alternate up and down

[@paulharris8551]

Jimmy Reed had two to three guitarists on those tracks. The basic shuffle is distinguished by the need to fret the 2nd, 4th, and 5th frets on the higher of the two strings while holding down the root note, which is too much of a stretch for many of us - maybe too much for Jimmy because he created a special lick for the 5 chord. The Reed version is harder than the usual version where you just go back and forth between the 2nd and 4th frets.

[@MrSlider5]

I was just wondering what amp you are using. It's got really strong reverb

[@karolis1906w]
