    "The Thrill Is Gone"
    The thrill is gone
    The thrill is gone away
    The thrill is gone baby
    The thrill is gone away
    You know you done me wrong baby
    And you'll be sorry someday
    The thrill is gone
    It's gone away from me
    The thrill is gone baby
    The thrill is gone away from me
    Although, I'll still live on
    But so lonely I'll be
    The thrill is gone
    It's gone away for good
    The thrill is gone baby
    It's gone away for good
    Someday I know I'll be open armed baby
    Just like I know a good man should
    You know I'm free, free now baby
    I'm free from your spell
    Oh I'm free, free, free now
    I'm free from your spell
    And now that it's all over
    All I can do is wish you well

      @StitchMethod Guitar Forgive me, as I enjoy watching these (especially the Jerry onesđŸ€—)......but wouldn't the "BB King Box" include the natural 6th (G#)? It's always been my understanding that one of the things that adds to his minor blues soloing is the use of the 6th (similar to how Clapton or Mayer bend to the major 3rd while in minor, and even how Jerry slides from maj 3rd into min 3rd before coming home in a major key)...I was taught the BB Box as G#-B-D-E-F#....maybe a lesson on this could appear in the future😏😁? Regardless, this is great, and I have already watched it twice.

      @StitchMethod Guitar what would be REALLY REALLY cool is if you did a lesson "Dancing in the Streets." Like a modal lesson mixed in perhaps? OR a breakdown of one of Mayer's Dead and Co. solos...."Tennessee Jed" or "Shakedown Street," something that shows his growth as a player. Pleease?

    Thank you for posting this fantastic lesson on B.B. King, and for the great, soulful solos you played during this lesson! I never knew it went to a GMaj7 before the V/F7 chord. I thought it went to a G7 there. I really like your explanation of how these chords come from the key of DMajor, knowing that Bm is the relative of that key. Ian, would you please break down and teach one of your "average B.B. solos" from this lesson when you have time? It would really help me get a better grasp of what's going on here. By the way, I am enjoying and learning a lot from your YT lessons! Thanks again

    I've always played the turn around to the V as: GMaj7>F#7sus4>F#7
    The pinkie stays in place as you move down a fret from the G chord to the F# (becoming the sus4 of F#) and then the pinkie slides down to A# (resolving the sus4 to major 3rd of the F#).

    Thank you for such a clear explanation of his note selection while soloing. Your discussion of the key is misleading however. It's clearly B minor. Dominant 5 chords in a minor key come from borrowing the raised 7th of the harmonic minor scale (vs natural minor).

      Key is not your starting point. That is a common thought. Key is the Major Scale that the chords are from. It’s a common debate. This would be a 6 2 3 type progression in D also known as a B minor progression. Which happens to be a minor 1 4 5, but watch my Black Magic Woman video. You are not borrowing from a Harmonic minor, you are actually making your turn around chord a dominant chord and thus creating the sound of a harmonic minor... it’s cool stuff

    I always get into arguments about the key of a song like this. I have learnt to say, in this example, it's an aeolian chord progression in the key of D...or a Bm tonal center.
