What is Thrillin’ Rhythm? This of course is referring to the standard blues tune “The Thrill is Gone” written by Roy Hawkins and Roy Darnell, but really put on the map by blues guitar legend B.B. King. Besides going through the chord progression, in this video Berklee Online course author Michael Williams shows us different rhythms you can use while comping for the tune. He goes over a few different rhythm parts such as backbeat, “funky backbeat,” and what he calls “thrillin’ with slides.” This video comes from “Blues Guitar,” a Berklee Online course written by Michael Williams.

Love that your using chords that are rarely written on song charts, giving me a new dimension. Love your work.
I like the major 7 chord for the flat VI . It makes the tune unique and sounds prettier 🙂
Outstanding! This is right where I am right now
Excellent!
I love it
Thanks Michael
Thanks for the lesson, I dig the M7 to the sus chord, never heard that before.
Great lesson!!!

Excellent lessons in a classic BB King song 🎵

Master guitarist
The Walter White of Blues instruction. Well done.
We try playing this song with my band (we are older but beginners) and this is very helpfull. But i never heard it in this key. I thought BB played it in B or B sharp
You might want to mention that King did not write the song. Roy Hawkins and Rick Darnell wrote it in 1951. King had a hit with his rendition of the song but writing credits go to Roy Hawkins and Rick Darnell.
If you sang this song like the record, but added three more original verses, how's that figure with you?
had me from the second I saw the pickup selector 😌
What year is that strat? Marcus Deml, from Germany has an OlyWhite with kindalike checkings and ageing like youres ... Im just interessted in stuff llike this ...
BB King said: “I was determined to be a frontman and I knew if I played rhythm guitar I'd end up backing up someone else, so I never learned how to do it.” He directed those backing him on what he wanted in regard to rhythm / chords. He always said his fingers were too big and fat to play chords. RIP BB.
No no no no... I'm logging in here just to say this, still playing and singing this song off the original cassette.
You're not working the bass line, why you resort to strumming the verse. It goes down from Am to F to Em,
and I hit it hard going down, going from Am to G to F and then Em. But then, after I get up from the floor,
doing some blues moaning, after the bass player lashed me with his cord, I sometimes sing about the
pills being gone, the bills piling up, the ills that chill, and all the thrills that have gone away, especially today.
The editing is done, we put the video away, oh, all that stop and go slo-mo editing is done, and we have
royalties to pay, you know just what you've done, and now it's time for your guitar to have something to say.
And I hope it isn't the thrill is gone. I ordered the newest Hendrix product. It's a thousand piece jig-saw puzzle.
