T-Bone Shuffle: a must-know blues classic from the great T-Bone Walker

[@njuham]

T-Bone Walker, I used to have many of his records in the 80's, when I was still young and handsome.

[@paulkielty3800]

Dude you’re still handsome.

[@OGStazzy]

Now your just handsome and young

[@antonelloschiano5815]

Fantastic lessons...great exemple...stunning guitarist! Thank you for posting

[@theguitarprofessionals8584]

you make the best guitar videos man!!!

[@nicoengerer5959]

Word!!!

[@nicox8913]

Well said!

[@SSRT_JubyDuby8742]

I have been lucky enough to have had him in my life for a very long time, as I began my musical journey with Chuck Berry age 6, my dad was a quality guitarist and singer. 1st thing he said was listen to this, this is where it comes from 😁. I actually learnt drums 1st, I think mainly to piss my dad off, I I regret that now, also all the times that I shut him down when he tried to impart musical Knowledge. I had become a punk and wanted no clichés. Like deployed 👍 😎🎙🎸✅️ For context I was 6 in 1971, I had found Chuck because of my-ding-a-ling, actually '72, but I wad still 6 😁

Great breakdown of this song, I’ve played it dozens of times at gigs. One additional thing that I didn’t catch you discussing; T-Bone picked VERY close to the bridge to vary the tone throughout the song. And even though I already know how to play it, its great to here the theory behind it, thanks!!!

[@abrigospardos]

True classic among classics!! Everyone needs it in their repertoire, for sure. I wish I could give you 100 likes instead of just one!!

[@maximvolodkin6809]

so glad you didn't quit making videos

[@alessandrodilatte1659]

Thanks!! Never realized that minor 3 is the minor seven of the fourth . Your vids are best in class

[@eohippusone]

Adrian: you are so right about T-Bone; he's Mr. 9th chord, Mr. Jump Blues. Also, Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown and "Okey Dokey Stomp." You gotta do that tune too!

[@johnwelch557]

My gosh, everything you do is so darn good! You should do a complete T-Bone album. I would buy it immediately. Yes, I know, legal issues... but, worth the effort. Thanks for all of your work!!

[@StratsRUs]

T Bone had a great voice too. I love 'Vietnam' and also the T Bone Blues album.

[@SimpleJack-jq2qn]

You’re a fantastic teacher and a really verstatile and talented player. Thanks for all your work - I am getting better because of your vids!

[@johnpandolfino8663]

Charlie Christian too .....amazing what you can do in one position.....he was the master at that ....nice axe

[@davidt9841]

My friend.. I truly love your videos and appreciate the work you put into them! Carry On, Brother!

[@uppermids]

Thank you, Adrian.

[@ranman1959]

I love your playing Adrian. I remember the first time I heard "Strollin' with Bones" and realized where Chuck Berry got a lot of his inspiration. And some of his licks, lol. Everybody borrows from somebody.

[@Bob48]

Terrific...thanks Adrian. Lots of goodies in this one!

[@trinacria1956]

Okie Dokie Stomp would be cool one

[@fabiopunk1661]

A pleasure for the ears Adrian

[@BearintheWoods848]

Sensational lesson again, I absolutely love t-Bone Walker, legend!

[@martynspooner5822]

Nice one Adrian as a blues freak loved this lesson.

[@cuellar23]

T bone was and is my biggest inspiration to learn guitar. Great lesson!

[@Foofang65]

Hell yeah! Love it when you pull out the les Paul. Good stuff on t bone. Did not know about the friendship with Charlie. Good stuff.

[@DavidYarber]

Excellent work. Stunning guitar! ❤

[@withnail60]

Absolutely excellent! Thanks

[@larrycortner6321]

Great job Young Man! I like the way you played it clean and slow to clearly hear what was going on .

[@julien23lastchristmas2]

Thank you master 👏👏👏 🇬🇧 Respect

[@MDLinzee]

Love the picking strategy - great tip!

[@NatureSoundsandSights]

Sweet, Sweet Horn lines :)

[@PureMadMetal]

Meaty stuff heading into the weekend with a classic motif to get your ears and fingers into. Less is definitely more here just some simple but effective phrasing No wonder chuck adopted some of TBones riffs. Another tasty video Adrian keep up the good work man.

[@fleadoggreen9062]

I thought I was sick of blues guitar But I think I may try to learn this , or most of it

[@RJKennedy3000]

Great lesson. Nice guitar. You do such a great job!

[@ACOUSTIC_4LOVE]

Good stuff 👍 Oak Cliff T Bone Walker from Texas was the Man. This stuff sounds best played on a Hollow Body Gibson with P-90 pick-ups 🇺🇸

[@jaapslager9671]

Another great lesson, thank you, Adrian!

[@dennischurgovich1904]

i can't play this like exactly like T-Bone, but I play it different each time, which is the beauty of the blues.

[@1Keef]

Fabulous cover and lesson Adrian on one of the greatest jump blues tunes. I have a request for another great T-Bone Classic called Papa Ain’t Salty. I would love to hear your take on this classic. There are almost no lessons on YT. Cheers!👍

[@bookergrey5843]

thanks again Mr Adrian I can do some of this and get the other as I progress!!!!

[@mikaelsjoberg1894]

Really nice...You can hear a tad of Fogerty in there...

[@tomdecuca3627]

That really swings!! Nice style and phrasing!!

[@davidfoley4707]

Great to see you again this is great you sound fab

[@TheSebtrain]

Classy lesson 👏

[@HansHenningThomas]

[@michaelbentley4182]

Wonderful!

[@wendyandgeoffpattison2610]

It's Interesting to note that T Bone often used 9th chords.

[@oddjobtriumph1635]

excellent

[@marcelpacheco7878]

Nice!

[@nurlesen816]

Great👍Thank You

[@Charlie_Jnr_om]

T bone shuffle - Boz Scaggs

[@raymondst.pierre4372]

I have that album by Boz; it's filled with classics, is one of my favorites, and is a much over-looked gem.

[@trinacria1956]

Oh yes!!!

[@donharmon2473]

impossible to learn or practice without the backing track

[@lamper2]

Listening to these melodic lines sounds like he knew and was influenced by the old boogie piano players. I wonder if he was friends with Johnnie Johnson( although Johnnie may have been a little later?) and the usual heroes of that era. My guess is that, historically, piano influenced guitar more than vice-versa. How long, on average, does it take you to transcribe a solo of average length and complexity?

[@LUCKYB.]

Muddy waters Elerafied Chicago .back in the 40s about 46 .or 47 .

[@Dalton71]

TBone also took a lot from Blind Lemon

[@memomedina5661]

Hello Adrian have your ever done Wagon Wheel by Bob Dylan or Darius Rucker.

[@williammartin5116]

Where may I purchase the backing track used in your video?

[@liviob100]

Nice work. Can you please make this video savable.

[@riclrk9947]

T .Bone even played guitar behind his neck,Hendrix got trhat from him

[@Fender420]

😃

[@fleadoggreen9062]

No drums ?

[@robertalecander2673]

No worse than the best

[@yamahajapan5351]

Meh…

[@earlgrey9329]

You talk too much, and play too little !

[@johnblair2939]

sorry, but to much time spent on theory. I may be speaking only for myself, but I need the "Tedious" explanation of what string and fret .I normally love your video's , but this one was a waste of time to watch.

[@tc6485]

Clean pickin bud.

[@greghines9041]

Get on with it....too much explanation...

[@DarinCates]

Why is Harry Potter trying to play blues?
