This is a terrific lesson. I learned more Lightning Hopkins in 13 minutes than in the last 60 years of trying to learn his stuff on my own. Thanks.

I just found this now, but I'm going to write this every time I find one of these: Your lessons are the best, Heath! Ol' Lightnin' is seminal. Thanks a lot!

[@robertreynolds9839]

I thank God for Him given you the gift of teaching, and for the many hours you must have spent honing your craft.

I was lucky growing up in New Orleans and heard him play live a few times before he passed on. He opened for Professor Longhair at one concert at the old Temple when they opened it up for concerts in the 70s for awhile.

[@FeedbackGuitarAcademy]

Thats cool thanks for sharing!

[@PirateRadioPodcasts]

thx matey N.B. Messing around, changing up the arrangement, lyrics, etc, is what makes GENUINE FOLK music. Good fun!

[@markbrown7103]

I cannot play anything without reading music or tab I started reading music in 1981 I went through several teachers when I started playing in 1974 I’ve been playing every since I took lessons off of Johnny Fortune for five years he became my best friend and taught me a lot but I love your blues I love your style thank you so much for your videos I can learn a lot from you keep doing what you’re doing this is great thanks for all of your videos I subscribe to every one of them I love it thanks again so much 🎸🎶🎼👍🏼👍🏼😘😀😎💖

[@cameodoneron]

Fabulous! I’ve played it for hours a day for a week and I can hang with the slower play along at the end. Thank you!

[@thestraitgateway]

Im glad you mentioned he was tuned up. That solves the mystery for me. For this song and another thats been driving me crazy

[@fredbloggs8072]

Love this song. I've heard it covered by loads of rock & blues bands over the years, including The Rolling Stones & Van Morrison. Very cool.

Hi, Could you please do a quick vid on that intro of Baby Please don't go. I've got a rough version of it but doesn't quite sound as good as yours. Cheers. PS , great lessons you're doing.

I play it the same way as you but i feel like Sam was doing so much more with his thumb, it sounds like someone is strumming chords in the back while he's playing the lead lines. Theres a lot more to these old bluesmen's pickin' than meets the eye

[@janswu9202]

Wonderful. Thank you for this gem.🙏

Great job , thank u for Tabs !!

[@FeedbackGuitarAcademy]

Glad you like them!

[@bqwood]

Hey Heath, great lesson. I have one question, if I may. I am a bit confused by your tab and was hoping you could clear this up for me. On the 2nd bar, in the bass-line "response", you are showing 2 open E's, then a G, then the open A. Those 2 open E's in the tab for this bar seem a bit off/wrong to me, and you don't seem to be playing them in the video despite them being in the tab. It sounds like the first E here is not being played. Is this me not getting this, or is there something slightly off with the tab here? Hopefully you can shed some light, as I'm finding it hard to get the rhythm right and I keep tripping up on this part. Many thanks in advance, and keep up the excellent content!!

[@FeedbackGuitarAcademy]

Yea that part is hard to play. The tabs are correct and Im playing it just like the tabs. The first open low E comes right after the slide up to the 5th fret on the B string, then its followed by another open E and then G then A. Since its a swing rhythm, its played very quickly after that slide. Slow down the video and you'll see it. Thanks for watching, I hope this helps!

[@bqwood]

@@FeedbackGuitarAcademy thanks! I'll take another look at it! Cheers!

[@lamper2]

Who else saw him play one of his last shows at Tramps NYC? At 11:55 I'm not seeing the E note on the transcription that you are clearly playing.

[@stevenmarshek]

Love his playing and his guitar. Anyone know what brand/ model and if it came that way or did he add the pickup

[@FeedbackGuitarAcademy]

Thanks man! Its a Taylor 914CE 2006. I havent added anything to it. The audio from this lesson just comes from a microphone. Im not plugged into the pickup at all. But the pickup does sound great too. Thanks for watching and commenting!

[@stevenmarshek]

​@@FeedbackGuitarAcademy omg😅 I see how I was confusing. I meant the guitar lighting Hopkins is playing in the old footage you showed. I'm sorry your playing and videos are great too! Cheers

[@stevepope5484]

Makes me think of electrical diagrams. I allways understood the white parts of the diagram most.

[@mangekyo9595]

Thanks a lot! I have difficulty in alternating the bass note, I know this is a very important technique in blues fingerstyle, is there any way to get over it?

And, I would ask for smth, if I may!! ;) A lessons of the magnificent song of Elmore James Dust my boom...the lick in the beginning is aweome!! actually first used by Robert Johnson and then Elmore James used to use it in many of his songs. Thx in advance!

Your seriously putting the sheet music over you playing. I want to see it done. It's a video.EDIT. that part drove me nuts but yeah overall good video. It's like I already know all that I just can't make sound good.

[@ThankyouJword]

Why not play it in F like the recording 🤦

[@El_Pimpin_Shizz]

Why do you just skip over when you do the answer to the a7 chord you just passed it without showing us

[@FeedbackGuitarAcademy]

I think the tabs are on the screen so you could slow it down.

[@karenuphill2741]

Can’t see what you’re doing at all

[@FeedbackGuitarAcademy]

.. okay.. Ive added the tabs in the lesson so you can follow along. You can also slow it down in the KZbin player and that might help.
