Damn Tom; thanks, you're my favorite teacher on here!! Im stubborn and like to teach myself most things and can't justify paying someone to teach me online cuz i can just look up tabs, etc; but i've gandered your webpage and i'm happy to pay to learn from you; your knowledge and simple/to the point teaching style is valuable and i appreciate you. Finally got back on my feet from being homeless/jobless etc a couple months ago and catching up on bills, etc; but will soon. I generally always only play music i write; but really enjoy and wanna learn how and what the Masters were doing who laid the foundation. Thanks again.
Another hit to my credit card. :) All of Tom's instructional videos are well done and really teach you the subject at hand. To have access to this kind of instruction thirty years ago would have been mind blowing. Grateful to have it now.
It is very similar to the melody of Fred Mcdowell's "You gotta move". Come on in my kitchen is in open G, Tom does an excellent lesson on that, check it out. I have recently bought his DVD Masters of Bottleneck Blues, should keep me busy in the long winter evenings!
A lot of people stole a lot of stuff from these really early blues men...You Gotta Move, Come on in my kitchen...Your Resonator sounds beautiful man. I love the Sebastopol tuning, a good mixture of major and minor, I usually tune up to open E, or Fb as I have a small parlour guitar which sounds a bit flabby in open D. Cheers for another great lesson.
Hey! That's Mississippi Fred McDowell's "You Got To Move"! They all be stealling from each other. Also WOW! You got a MULE!!!!! Most beautiful guitar ever! Bravo!
Blues is not about stealing or doing like the other. Blues is an heritage, that everyone should transmit to the others. Blues is a state of mind, a way to live on the margin of the music business and all the dirty effects of it
Fantastic Playing and lesson I just wanted to point out; Tampa Red wrote this in 1931, several years before You Gotta Move and a couple of years before Robert Johnson's Come On In My Kitchen btw
@@dwbstllambstl It's murky, as this melody is one of the most common blues themes. Even though the classic blues artists are granted copyrights, many of the melodies come out of traditional themes.
Tom is the best country blues guitar instructor-hands down! I’ve purchased several of his downloads
Instablaster.
Keeping this great music alive thanks to Tom’s hard work!

Great explanations on how and where to make variations and improvise with this song just after 9 mins. A very good lesson indeed. Well done Tom.

Hey Ron, what kind of amp is in your profile pic here? I wanna see a closeup of the same pic, pretty cool.

Yes "You gotta move" sprang to mind as soon as I heard this, Fred Mcdowell is one of my fav players.
Yeah. Tampa Red outranked Robert Johnson, the Missippi Sheiks and them all, back in the day.
Amazing instructor
Thanks Tom.
Fantastic!👍

The Mississippi Sheiks issued Sitting on Top of the World in 1931. Same melody - not sure who is covering whom.

In the first song I keep thinking its going to be... you got to move, you got to move, you’ve got to move
Also "You Gotta Move"
Nice Mule! I've got one too!
awesome! this song has always been a riddle to me, could never work out the right notes from the 1930's record
Jitter Jump lesson anywhere on youtube or...anywhere? Evalena-or Rockin' in Rhythm?

Does anyone know what kind of slide Tom is using here?
"It Hurts Me too".
a mule resonator, I have number 51!
hey Tom what gauge of string is your unwound 3rd? Im finding it hard to ‘make it sing’ right, if you know what I mean. Thanks for all your help
Mitchell Man I used a .20 here since I’m tuning down.
Tom Feldmann Music thank you!

Mark Prince muleresophonic.com
Tom Feldmann / PlayCountryBlues hey Tom, what slide are you using here? Awesome lesson, thank you!
The melody is the same as how long blues by Leroy Carr not sure if it came first or sitting on top of the world .but yeah same melody .
Sounds like Howlin Wolf Sittin on Top of the World
That one started out years earlier as a Mississippi Sheiks number.
come on my kitchen - same tune
Yep you are right.... Sitting on Top of the world etc... tons of them have that same basic riff
