Thank you SO MUCH for memorializing this Johnny. You’d make Sam and Eddie both so happy. I played with Eddie for a few years in mid 90s and we used to check in on you all over the city 😎
Thanks for the great lesson Johnny. As you know, this is one of my favorite songs to perform. As many time as I have played it, there is always something new to learn.
I learnt guitar without a pick so I loved learning Sam's pieces they flowed easier was nice its rare you get lead guitarists not using picks he played his lightning fast boogies and other jams no pick either all ur love is slow enough in comparison to some of the blues he done he was as quick and sharp as buddy guy minus a pick
Appreciate your lessons a great deal. Tell me about that Rick you are playing. If you don’t mind. After a 45 year hiatus I have started playing again and I gotta say ‘ what the hell was I thinking’🤣?
thanks Randy! that rick was destroyed in a hit and run accident. it was a 425. I LOVE the twang on it. I still have the pickups and I'm gonna put it in something. good luck with playing. feel free to check out my 7CST zoom group class at Chicago Blues Network, pm me if you're interested.
Bro: you made this one to tell the three other people that watch the crazy stuff I put up now and then shame on me for daring to set foot on the hallowed ground of the Immortal Samuel Gene Maghett, huh? This is why I love you so: you set the record straight after I leave it out in the sun all day to get warped 🤣🙏💜
Really awesome stuff! Thanks a bunch. More Magic Sam will always be appreciated. “Just Got To Know” live at Sylvio’s is another one of my favourites. Cheers!
Oh yeah. Thanks Darren. I'm gonna circle back to Magic Sam's slow blues style and will include Just Got to Know. Billy Boy Arnold has a great version of that JImmy McCracklin song too.
You stroking up when it's meant to be down then up and when he starts that jump up he stroking down aswell if you wana do it like you said note for note
