Boom Boom - The Guitar of John Lee Hooker - taught by Tom Feldmann

[@AnthonyMonaghan]

The one chord wonder! John Lee Hooker was all about the rhythm. Relentless. A completely original artist. Thanks for the clip at the beginning, just brilliant.

[@martynspooner5822]

Got to be the best teacher of blues guitar I have come across . His stuff always first class.

[@motioninmind6015]

John Lee Hooker is not easy to play authentically. Just look at all the other KZbin teachers who can't really do it. They play a version of what they think it sort of sounds like but it's never got the real JLH groove or sound. Tom Feldman is the exception, he's on a whole other level. I've bought four of his courses and they're one of the best investments I ever made!

[@lightninmann]

ditto!

[@benjaminbenson3399]

Amen!

[@raindogred]

a lot of people dismiss Hooker's guitar work..but few can actually sound like him..Tom is one of them..excellent play through at the end...will be studying this one for a long while..thanks

[@ChrisMiami]

there is more creativity and feel here then in the last 30 years of music

[@tommasopanetti8508]

Thank you. The best lesson which I have found on Boom Boom magic sound!

[@treblekicker]

I bought the full online video, and it's fantastic!

[@pangur780]

Big fan of Tom Feldman. Have two of his dvds on Johnson and Skip James. Great teacher.

[@adamp185]

Thank you very much sir! Very nice tutorial.

[@VINYLCONVERTER1]

Brilliant lesson which I know I can achieve thanks to your careful instructions thank you so much.

[@mitchellstanley3836]

Best lesson on boom boom I've seen thanks a lot! Love Mr Hooker's music.

[@valeriyblinov1573]

LOVE YOU!!! BLUES!!! Thank You!!! Val

[@Mazeltof90]

You really succeeded with this lesson. The basis of what mr Hooker is doing is here and I really enjoy the openness for how to strum and so on. Most guitar players who play with their fingers are difficult to imitate when it comes to technique - but this was good! Thanks!

[@stevefranklin6041]

Great stuff, Tom!

[@chrisadams1063]

The statements I made on KZbin I do about Joe Satriani Steve Vai Jeff back this guy I feel the same way he is one of my guitar Heroes and I really great person that I met in New York City he spent the time to show me a couple of things on the guitar still appreciative

[@marleyvonhoffstein3193]

Great sound, great lesson!

[@railcar123]

[@bobu5213]

No bullshit, just getting right into it. Great lesson

[@chopsonyou2007]

This guy can sing too ! Nice lesson

[@5150show]

Love the python guitar strap , Lennon had one too

[@funguy4utube]

Tom ... I use my acoustic nylon string ( parlor guitar ) 3/4 size guitar for this and I find it works very well for the Robert Johnson songs and makes all the bends flow so well.

[@downhill240]

Excellent lesson!

[@irafutterman5557]

Eric Burdon and The Animals recorded a great cover of Boom Boom Boom, John Lee dug it too. He made some records and didn't some concerts with Eric and the boys.

[@arnorossi3797]

very nice thank

[@idessaoutlaw]

Do some Lightning ⚡ Hopkins lessons when you have time ✌️😎👍

[@funguy4utube]

Wow ..... nice teachin’ ‘n playin’ smooth ‘n fast. As well ... the ‘freeform kinda bendy/chucka chucka/loosy-goosy nuances make it really get the feeling of JLH original

[@madarhorsev]

Thank U bro👍

[@rfmcghostcrewyourcoach4939]

you see what's the matter, I still don't play very well and therefore I understand alohor how you play with your right hand, could you make a video where you learn to play with your right hand in different ways?

[@TheGorillafoot]

This is the closest to what he is doing I've seen. Great video.

[@malcolm1367]

Nice hayahay😊

[@scousemanthinks2944]

Hey is that the classic collings ooo 2h I see before my eyes .... The best 12 fretter on the market !!!

[@frodolucanius]

Main riff is so similar with Smokestack lightin by Howlin wolf

[@daviddawson1718]

I found that out accidentally, and I love it

[@antoniopinto1880]

Me quedo clarito gracias jajaja

[@sourcessources6047]

Make it sing brother. I dig the no bullsh** method. You get to it. No talking for 7 minutes before the vid nonsense. Now you have all these JLH disciples out there.

[@12Radius]

What strings are you using > 12 16 18 32 42 5? ? are they 12-53 set with .18 for G

[@ivanaranguiz9340]

Es extraordinario que suban estos videos Pero suban también los sub títulos se los agrádeseria Gracias

[@svetlansavov5731]

Magnifique !...MERCI !

[@shian228]

Nice lesson but I'm struggling to work out what your doing after the opening riff as you do two different base runs, you explain one then play another? And it would be nice to know what strings your hitting for those little flourishes in between....I know there's some individual style to add in but I'm a total beginner, just trying my best to copy what you do.

[@BackyardRambo]

Just concentrate on the the main riffs and use the chugga percussion to keep tempo. When you're comfortable with the main body of the song it will be easier to understand the low parts. There's definitely a feel to it more than an exact notation.

[@cravinbob]

try this guy kzbin.info/www/bejne/qXm4pHuNa9F9n9E

[@proberaum7015]

Fantastcico.

[@nyitrai7]

I,d love learn the song "I got the Key to the Highway by John Lee Hooker.

[@rodderz5615]

Brill. Thanks

[@victoriaalindeman7593]

Just a little thing called guitar workshop...

[@tukanhamen]

I'm having a very hard time bending the B string. Any tips?

[@Mordorer]

Reinforce it with another finger.

[@rockers2rockers616]

Choice mate...

[@johnnybx3254]

Cool Beans !

[@clarkster98]

What is that guitar youre using bloody awesome

[@PulledPurk]

Collings

[@girliedog]

who puts 18g on a blues guitar?

[@lamper2]

I've never found the exact song the Animals used at the end of their version ("shaaake it baby") i just know it's not part of this. maybe they made it up?

[@matefulop1138]

Maybe it's Shake It Baby by Hooker what you are looking for.

[@kpj5]

Fastest ever lesson

[@cravinbob]

You are singing over nothin but you can add the bass line with vocal E G A E

[@mrtambourineman6107]

True, but better to leave it as nothing

[@mrtambourineman6107]

Awesome lesson, can we hear some Bieber sometime ?

[@TheJukeboxhero15]

LOL, YOU COULD NOT THIS, LOL

[@guitarbestfriend4892]

[@blindmeringue8896]

Disappointed with the picture quality, not as good as many on youtube nowadays

[@TRKTKO]

Wonderful lesson! You're such great teachers! I've learned a lot watching you guys! Thanks a million! Have a beautiful day!

[@TRKTKO]

Blind Meringue These men produce the best blues lessons I've ever seen. 720p is more then enough Meringue. Hell I watch in 240p and I can see perfectly. It's the content that matters and when it comes to the actual recordings they're transcriptions are on the money. I'm so thankful to have these videos. 🙏

[@blindmeringue8896]

Hi Trey, defo the best blues lessons, and this one is up there, I have no issues with the content. Only a short while ago the video quality was state of the art but I spend many hours trawling round youtube guitar lessons as I am retired and they need to upgrade in my opinion

[@rasm0225]

I think the idea is that this is a sample so you can decide if you want to buy the whole DVD lesson.

[@ronj9448]

The best value at free. I suggest buying the whole lesson and enjoy it in 1040p

[@daveb606]

Everything was good until you had me going crazy with the main riff bro totally used the first string when you wanted to show the basic riff. Had me going bonkers

[@Foggyftbl]

To fast I don’t know what you talking about

[@jhulse23]

Instead of 3rd string, second fret stuff it would be a MUCH better lesson if you told the student what NOTES you are playing. Too fast and WAY TO HARD to follow.

[@BackyardRambo]

So make your own damn video, Fn critic! If you can't follow this go back to your Mel Bay song books...

[@ronj9448]

Buy the DVD and get the sheet music and tab.

[@jhulse23]

Thanks!

[@jamesb8193]

Oh please. Everybody's a damn critic. Just play shit blues artist never gave a shit bout no chord and lessons. Make your own video rick star.

[@AmraphelofShinar]

I wish he was saying note names instead of "fourth string second fret" etc. Is this for folks who can't read notes or something?

[@PlayCountryBlues]

Most people do not know the notes...including the original artist. The goal is to help as many folks as possible and it is more universal to say string/fret.

[@peterbourke1355]

Does not fully explain strum, and way too fast, also the tablature does not reflect exactly what he plays-this is particularly noticeable in first 6 minutes of lesson, an engaging presenter but just average teacher

[@PlayCountryBlues]

TAB is not a running transcript of the entire video. It is taken from the last split screen segment where I play through the song slowly.

[@axxmaniaxx]

too much talk. Just play it normal, then slow. No need to talk, as long as we can hear & see how its played.
