I’ve done a lesson on my arrangement of this classic Jimmy Bryant tune! A kind of Country/Swing 50’s ballad, and a lot of fun to play. We channel our inner EVH and get some right hand tapping involved in order to generate the melodic pedal steel responses we hear answering each of Jimmy’s phrases on the original. Some nice chord voicings and double stop ideas to take away from this one too 👌🏻 Tone talk and recommended listening towards the end of the video as usual. And for all you Louis fans out there, the King makes a welcome return! 🐈 ⏱️TIMESTAMPS⏱️ 00:00 - Performance 02:56 - Introduction 03:30 - Learning the changes 05:58 - Louis 🐈 06:32 - Lead guitar; A sections 1 & 2 07:17 - Tapping 09:10 - Hybrid Picking the sixths 12:56 - B section 13:28 - Triad-based Western Swing licks 19:09 - 3rd A section 20:19 - 2nd B section 21:25 - Final A section 22:20 - Ending 23:21 - Practice goals 23:45 - Tone Talk 26:39 - Recommended Listening 27:48 - Summary I would highly recommend downloading the lesson materials provided at the link above.. all of the topics covered in this lesson are typed up nice and neat and provided in both guitar pro and PDF formats.
