Guitar Chimes by Blind Blake


Recommended Posts

I restarted playing almost a year ago after a 30 year hiatus and this is "the" song that inspired me. Bought the lesson from littletobywalker.com. And promptly discovered this is way out of my depth, banged my head against the wall and put it aside. So after a year of hard work, pulled the lesson out again a few days ago and made some real progress on it. It now appears to be within my grasp. Not saying I'll ever be as slick as Toby, but it's fun and I can feel it coming together for me. :lol:

Blind blake!...what a player!.........I went through a period some years ago of just playing acoustic guitars....tried most blake songs.....BUT..west coast blues and blake's breakdown...took me a whole year to get them up to speed!!

A lot of people have trouble rolling that bass!

 

Incredible player.....probably the best I have ever heard.
