The Muddy Waters solo is based upon 'I Feel Like Going Home' but he played that solo on countless other songs too! Huge thanks to all patrons, your TABS for this video are available here: bit.ly/339YoIJ BACKINGTRACK :bit.ly/2QR7Hui have fun practicing with this one! GP
Guitar Pilgrim - “You don’t need to be a virtuoso in order to be a great player”. My God is that ever true!! Simply pay attention to the feel & emotion that the nuances provide. Sterile shredding got old in the 90s after everyone learned to do it.
Worry, worry, worry is one of my favorite bb king songs iv been listening to it nonstop recently! The way he talks to the crowd about half way through is like a preacher, he had such control of a crowd and an amazing powerful voice. Any performer could learn things from listening to bb king. He could pack more emotion into 3 notes that almost anybody
Another great video, thanks! Great to get some folks recognizing that 'less is more' & that being a good soloist is NOT just defined by playing a million notes... but fewer notes, played with DyNamicS amongst the silences, although a different style, is still great playing. I love 'the 3 Kings'... so would have to vote for an extended study of all/any of them...
I dig your lessons. I'm a fairly accomplished player but now i find my self relearning this stuff you're teaching that i forgot about long ago. It's refreshing.
You did a beautiful job of the BB King solo. That one is the best for me. I need to learn that and if I do I will be in guitar heaven. Patron here I come! Many thanks GP. You are a great player.
Great video once again! Would like to see more blues videos, they cover such important and overencompassing concepts of guitar playing, that theres something in it for everyone.
Great selection of solos and brilliant approach to teaching them and the musical principles behind them. Would love to hear more about the theory (the chords, the target notes). Thanks for the quality content.
Not the first of your videos I've seen (too numerous to mention), but definitely one of the best. As someone who learned, with enormous effort, to play the 3 chords required for "Home, Home on the Range" back in 1964 and a lifelong blues lover, thank you. Comes a time you eventually realise you'll never be BB, or Clapton or Broonzy or SRV, but videos like this make me want to get out the Fender Strat that's been gathering dust in the garage for almost 20 years. Thanks.
I got the privilege of seeing the master himself, Muddy Waters and Eric Clapton performing on the stage at the same time. Muddy started the show, but returned later in the middle of Eric's session, they were just jamming. By the end of the evening Muddy left no doubt in everyone's mind what a great master he was. I will never forget that night. It was all simple innocent blues for the real music lovers who enjoyed the artists not a carnival show with lights like you see these days. The truly great moments in a musicians life.
Your videos are so entertaining, I love watching them all. I don't even play guitar, but I love almost all types music, especially the blues. Your skills as a guitar player are obvious but your teaching and observational abilities are wonderful. I wish you great success sir.
Your playing is spot on and your analysis very sharp and informative…This is a terrific guitar channel! (And I happen to play classical guitar, although my early years were spent obsessing over all the great blues players and I still enjoy letting it rip from time to time….)
Love this! And your comment at the beginning “...playing 200 notes in 5 seconds. Which is ultimately quite meaningless”. Absolutely spot on! Personally, I’d rather hear 5 notes with feeling, than 500 without. The only exception to this, that I will make is Jimi Hendrix’s Red House.
All of the three guitarists are so recognisible. When I listen to BB King and Eric Clapton play together I can tell when Clapton and when BB King is playing solo without watching video.
I am not a guitar player but am a huge fan of guitar. You say so many good things while playing an amazing guitar that I am hooked on your channel. Blues. Play the note you need to play and leave that other noise out of the mix. It's like the sculptor that was asked how to sculpt an elephant out of a block of stone. It's easy. Just chip away everything that doesn't look like an elephant.
I remember watching Muddy's concert with a certain Johnny Winter. I'd love to hear your take on John Lee Hooker, T-Bone Walker, Albert Collins, Robert Cray and of course Robert Johnson. "Early this morning he knocked up on my door and i said Hello Satan - i believe it's time to go"
When you started the BB King solo, I thought you were playing the intro to Fleetwood Mac's I need your love so bad. I guess BB King may have been an inspiration to Peter Green.
I just watched this video for the 100th + time. But this time I had my headphones on. And you've got your own background music going on. Really smooth BGM! 👍
Playing fast notes are also the component of blues and that sound great too if you do it perfectly. You cannot say them meaningless. They are powerful and often enhances beautiful fingerpicking.

Great stuff yet again. Please could you give us a clue how to get that fender tone on a kemper If possible.. Thanks!
Mrpatflicker, I posted a message to you on patreon, check that one out!
All three solo's were great. I would prefer a more in depth Muddy Waters lesson thanks.😎👍🇦🇺
great playing!

The moment I see Pilgrim with a blues video, I gotta focus all my attention on it! Always a pleasure to tune in!
pun intended?
Love the great insight you have of the greats playing styles. Thanks !
Gotta be the sweetest tone ever
Cool. People need to hear some Muddy Waters.
Amen to that brother
I can't agree more
You’re so right. Who needs 100 notes in an couple seconds. Blues is no music on the run 😊
Hand Clapton his Strat, give him a good ole blues beat, and he can play for decades without repeating a lick !!!! 😜👍💕💕💕
Guitar Pilgrim has made me a Pilgrim of your channel.
This is my Guitar Temple which I visit everyday to pay my respects by watching and learning.
The way this man represents guitar wisdom is phenomenal and his teaching very easy to understand I always wait for your guitar lessons......
I vote for BB King. His style is not easy to pick up or imitate. I'd love to see you break down his playing.
Excellent Lessons !!! My Favourite Is Robin Trower From Winterland Concert in 1975 . Take Care.

They sound so beautiful!
Love all of your videos. Such a huge help in my playing. Keep coming with the blues greats. I can’t get enough.
I love them all. Great solos, and great playing on your part too. Love your interpretation and analysis of the songs.
i learn many guitar tone and playing ways from your explanation. i didn't recognize them before.
thank you so much~!
they were all awesome! thank you. Muddy Waters!
Great lesson, great explanations, great discussions, great playing. Thank you, Ray (Australia)

Thats the greatness of blues.....with a few notes it says A LOT.

Thank you for sharing!!.... awesome video!!
Dude, you're great and fresh at your approach and presentation of these licks/riffs and ideas.
Great channel and content, thank you.
The Pilgrim rocks. Always a worthwhile lesson. Many thanks.
You have a good feel for song nuances, and are good at explaining it. Keep doing your thing!
This is a awesome way to start a Sunday morning 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸 happy Sunday
Grande maestro, the BB king solo, just awesome, man👍😎

That sounds like a brilliant night, I wish I'd could have been there!
Once again brill vid, cheers. Would love more BB King & Muddy. Keep up the good work & thanks for all your lessons.
I am loving this channel. Thank you!!!
Thanks for sharing this...I have been stuck in the pentatonic for a while and I really love the blues licks..slow ones especially. Love your videos 🎸🎸
I learn a lot about guitar and music with your videos, thanks!
Extremely insightful dude! I couldn't choose between any! Every video had loads of takeaway!
Your clips make blues transparent, I´m learning a lot from that. Always looked for sth like that! Thank you very, very much!
I enjoy watching you play full of passion...
It helps to focus on the important things! Well done and thanx a lot!!! Kind regards, Henry
Your videos are so entertaining, I love watching them all. I don't even play guitar, but I love almost all types music, especially the blues. Your skills as a guitar player are obvious but your teaching and observational abilities are wonderful. I wish you great success sir.
Love it, love it.... Great job...
Great Work, I´d love to see more Clapton Style Blues lessons
Very very excellent! Thank you
Your playing is spot on and your analysis very sharp and informative…This is a terrific guitar channel! (And I happen to play classical guitar, although my early years were spent obsessing over all the great blues players and I still enjoy letting it rip from time to time….)
Absolutely, awesome instructional video! Really well organized and accessible. Great job...I subscribed!!!
The song of B.B. king solo is Worry, Worry, Worry if anybody was wondering.
Great idea interesting interested in muddy and bb creations 🎸🎸🎸🎸🎸💙
Love your channel! The world needs more blues guitar songs!
Amen to that
Really appreciate these videos GP, has certainly made me think more about how the greats play. Thank you.🏅
Three excellent examples!!
simply.... great ....excelent
I think you channel is absolutely brilliant!!! Very well done!!!
Your channel is great!! Excellent tone & presentation. Your exuberance is infectious brother. Thank you
Muddy Waters: an amazing, underrated guitar player that should be a must for any musician to listen to and learn from him.
underrated?
Love this! And your comment at the beginning “...playing 200 notes in 5 seconds. Which is ultimately quite meaningless”. Absolutely spot on! Personally, I’d rather hear 5 notes with feeling, than 500 without. The only exception to this, that I will make is Jimi Hendrix’s Red House.
You’re a great guitarist. I love your lessons ❤
you are awesome.your tutorial is really fabulous.sir thanks a lot for the lesson.
3 of the best, anything by these 3 will get my attention.
WHY IN HEAVEN SEND ARE YOU NOT PLAYING AND PRODUCING YOUR OWN MUSIC
YOU ARE UNBELIEVABLY INCREDIBLE
Brilliant.
Tastefully Done.
Keep up the good work.
I really enjoy your videos, so educational,thank you
We want Buddy Guy , Albert King , Freddie King , Elmore James , Albert Collins , T-Bone Walker , Skip James ... solos
And Eric Clapton
Kenny Wayne shepherd
Freddie and the Ice Man did so much with tone and also the simple note.
@ytub yt Sure that's a good one.
I listen to Clapton music for so many years, I dont realy know the other to much but they also very great ...
I love how you play the blues! Awesome!
All of the three guitarists are so recognisible. When I listen to BB King and Eric Clapton play together I can tell when Clapton and when BB King is playing solo without watching video.
Both Muddy and BB :)
Loved all the examples \m/
Your amazing! Thanks for the lesson 😊
Clapton is God, Muddy the father and BB is the Holy Spirit..the way he could talk and sing with the guitar is to be reconed..awesome😍
Haha, well said brother!
Awesome guitar tutorial clip.
Thanks so much for these videos.
First time I see you awesome lesson. I am a beginner. Thank you.

My vote is for BB King, so great licks.
And great videos too, thank you!
LOVE ALL 3 👍🔥🎸🦅
You’re great! Thanks from Brasil 🇧🇷 🤘🏻

ha, that's brilliant! thanks for that great comment brother!
The great BB King! Start with this because you will always move from that and follow it Muddy waters and EC. Everything you do is real good keep it up
In America we celebrate the arrival of the Pilgrims 400 years ago. I celebrate and give thanks for the Guitar Pilgrim!! Rock On Mate!
Love it 🎸😎👍🎧🎼🔥💯🎸😎👍🎧🎼🔥💯

truly amazing
great, interesting, as always... thanks
Love to listen to the THE pilgrim!
Great Video! Good Job man! Keep 'em coming!
When you started the BB King solo, I thought you were playing the intro to Fleetwood Mac's I need your love so bad. I guess BB King may have been an inspiration to Peter Green.
He was without a shadow of a doubt
Perhaps the opposite as well.
I love how you do and explain the blues
Thank u, Pilgrim! In my opinion you are the best CZcams guitar teacher!
It is so hard to pick among these three great guitarists. They have such distinctive styles. It ls like picking a favourite child. :)
Every post you do is good. I can't say one or the other they are all good.Thankyou.
This guy's enthusiasm is infectious. Great player as well.
Awesome stuff! More Muddy please! And BB and Eric....
Love your videos man. Muddy!!
Great videos with so much expression both on the guitar and in person..from a new subscriber !
Great video (as usual). My favourite, no doubt, is B.B.King's, but the other two are absolutely brilliant.
I just watched this video for the 100th + time. But this time I had my headphones on. And you've got your own background music going on. Really smooth BGM! 👍
Great job!
Playing fast notes are also the component of blues and that sound great too if you do it perfectly. You cannot say them meaningless. They are powerful and often enhances beautiful fingerpicking.
Great job as usual Thom. Looks like I've got some more things to work on!
It's so true. it depends on the phrase, cuz all of them are notes but it depend on how you write it ❤️ I love blues #1 SRV #2 BB king
