Everybody has an inner-bluesman/woman inside them somewhere. Believe me as a guitar teacher. Tons of people come to me for one-on-one lessons to improve their blues playing. There’s another group of students that don’t even realize they like the blues. But I’ll show them a quick blues riff, and their face will light up. Everybody’s got the blues. So learn a couple easy blues riffs so that you too can play your blues away.
In this beginner blues guitar lesson, I go over 2 songs by the legendary blues artist known as Muddy Waters. Muddy was a true original of the blues that really changed what the blues could be. He’s contributed countless amounts of amazing songs that were copied again, and again, and again to this day. He was also the first to record a bunch of classic blues songs. (even though he didn’t write them) so the versions of a lot of blues standards are based off the Muddy Waters version.
Mannish Boy, and Hoochie Coochie man are both must known blues tunes. Both of them are super simple, yet use classic, must know blues techniques.
