"One Horse Town" by Blackberry Smoke - Intro Riff, Explained

[@kc2972]

Love Blackberry Smoke. Started listening to them a couple of years ago. Best Southern Rock around. Your lessons by the way are great. Nice to see this one.

[@Davey480]

Great tutorial. You're the only one I've seen that strums it right.

[@BevL64]

Your lessons are so helpful I just became a patron. Thank you for everything you do ! :)

[@songnotes]

Thanks so much Bev!

[@hectorramos2121]

May you please show us how to play the complete song?

[@arrowspellets2728]

You're Boss-N-It David! Your lessons are the most helpful... "Awesome way to do a Riff" +

[@mizler6444]

Thank you so much! I've been waiting for a solid lesson on this song for over a year. Finally someone did it right!

[@stephenwhite9534]

Great lesson really simply and logically laid out, will certainly give this a go, thank you.

[@douglaslay7487]

Another nice lesson. Blackberry Smoke is a great band. Not many lessons are out there for their music. Nice job ! "My Old Friend the Blues" would be another great lesson from them.

[@songnotes]

Nice thanks for the suggestion! Gonna check it out now. I hadn’t heard of them before this request came in.

[@nathanfrisby3133]

[@GeorgMierau]

Great song and very accessible lesson. Thank you! :)

[@songnotes]

Thank you thank you!

[@GeorgMierau]

@@songnotes The "bass up-down-up" instead of "bass down-up" is definitely not the easiest part of this riff :)

[@joshuacharles6002]

I really love tat country sound n really fun to play

[@aspenx1304]

This is so awesome!!!

[@rv6864]

Good lesson. Trying the correct timing now. I downloaded the lesson but can’t quite figure out how you’re doing the count. Start on 3 count, but what count is the first strum? Thanks Ron

[@songnotes]

Hey Ron! Great question, thanks for asking. This was tricky to explain in the lesson, as I did not want to over complicate it but also did not want to skip over it entirely. I would say the strumming start on the one count following the lead in riff, but in fact the one count is where you play just the bass note of the chord and the first full strum happens on the two count Uppercase words below are a full strum, lower case are a bass note only. (one) TWO AND (three) AND FOUR AND (one) AND TWO AND (riff riff riff riff) Hope that helps!

[@rv6864]

Song Notes That was perfect! Now if you’ll help get the song’s strumming going the stars will all be aligned. That’s a perfect song to learn intro bass notes and chord strumming at the same time..

[@gavinfurtado2302]

Can you please provide a backing track for this song.

[@johnhanewich9209]

Great lesson, was hoping to get more , tried your patreon thing, sorry way to complicated to figure out so unfortunately i will have to try elsewhere, and i got tired of looking for a way to contact you to try to resolve this. Disappointed to say the least
