Further On Up The Road - Eric Clapton & Joe Bonamassa - Guitar Lesson & Reaction 

To me, Clapton is at a level Banamasa will never reach. If you listen carefully, Banamasa simply plays as many "licks" as possible with no connecting musical story. Clapton on the other hand, is telling a story with his notes. So clear to me. It's kinda like Johnny Winter vs B.B. King. Winter plays way more, but King plays the better notes. It's the difference between being an instrumentalist and a musician.

Hey Henry, I’m glad to say, this is one of the best guitar videos out there. You have chosen the perfect performance from the internet to get some inspiration and cool licks from. Very well done! Aron :)

Amazing! Thank you so much Henry, i really love your Clapton lessons.

Cool lesson. I've been working on this song for a long time. This is the 3rd version so far. Really cool that you put the solos in. Don't know why but I have a hard time with soloing on this tune. The intro solo in the last waltz version is another great version. Thanks for the lesson.

'Further on up the road' was writen by Joe Medwick and first recorded by Bobbie 'Blue' Bland in 1957, Pat Hare taking the guitar part, great version and really worth a listen and a must if you're studying the song and arrangement.

This is really good. And free tab on your site. Subscribed.

Excellent, Henry. Many thanks.

I dont Eric was at all uncomfortable,he was not flat out at all,but a great performance by both

Great video. Thank you so much! Have followed Joe from his early beginnings with Bloodline and any guitarist worth his salt loves Eric.

Great stuff Henry! Love your breakdowns…I actually prefer Clapton’s tone…don’t get me wrong Bonamassa is amazing but I just love the Clapton sound and lines.

I just love this song and the music..

Brilliant! I’ll be learning those licks and tricks. One of my favourite Clapton songs that I know from his EC Was Here album.

this is good how about clapton and frampton doing while my guitar gently weeps

Hello Henry, I really like. Just one thing, I never catch the same sound. Maybe It would be nice to introduce the use of effect pedal or not and/or amp adjustments for a minute before starting. Many thanks for your tutorial’s en studies.

Very good and funny videos bring a great sense of entertainment!

Super.Thank you.

Great analysis on further. Love this tune. Who doesn't?

I really enjoy all of your lessons, and the little trivia that you will sprinkle your videos with that bring them to life, and not just a dry music lesson. Plus Super Simple Guitar is not really true for you. A lot of people may be able to play the licks you teach, but you have a natural feel that makes even one not sound great. I love your tone also. I noticed how like me you loved Joes tone vs Eric. That is something i never understood about Clapton. When he was with the Bluesbreakers he had killer tone with his Les Paul through his Marshal, and even with Cream with his S.G. through Marshal amps. Once he started playing strats, he has that thin Fender tone. But what do i know every time I went to buy a Gibsson S.G. I would wind up with a strat. I saw even you used a strat for this. There must be something about a strat that keeps luring guitarists to it. You sound great with a strat, and your tone would hold up against Joes Gibson tone. Because like Clapton you play from your soul with super bends and taste, and this is in a lesson. Awesome ,and very inspiring guitarist Henry. Thank you for all your wondeful videos.

I'm assuming this is the Dominant scale but I cant work something out; If this is mixing the Major and the Minor why is the flat 6 (D#, 4th fret on the B string) not in there?

Needing a lesson on "futher on up the road" is like needing a lesson on "how to chew gum"

TONE? Clapton's playing a Strat thru a 40w tweed, Joe's playing a Les Paul thru a Marshall 100w Jubilee !

So what is the cost to join and get the free Tab ??? Thanks 🙏

I've jammed with the vid and the groove is nice, I honestly blew both off just improvising around with my own tone which is similar but better.......fact!

Ottimo video, puoi mettere i sottotitoli!?!

Clapton brought an off the shelf strat and tweed twin and that’s it Comparing tones in this situation is silly

Is the reason you don't include all octaves of the 2, the 3, and the 6th is to not have to go out of positon(for instance the 6th doesn't occur til the B string)?

Clapton in recent decades always turns his tone down when he plays with other guitarists, don’t understand why but I hate it.

And bonnamasa at next level? Common he’s in full flight. Clapton walked on cold for one song. If he gave Clapton 3 songs he could have taken over the rest of the show. Don’t get me wrong Bonamassa is a great player, but he’s off pace and running out of time to reach the level Clapton achieve. Like Chester Brunett said, “these boys know music, but the don’t know life”

I personally cant stand joes voice (sounds fake) and his extra crafty solos lose me on the feel of the song. He played tastefully here and was much better imho. Clapton is god!

Clapton needs more highs. He should switch off the humbuckers in favor of single coils. Just kidding. Don't hurt me.
