Hoodoo Man Blues by Junior Wells Guitar Lesson

"Hoodoo Man Blues" is famous as what's in many ways the first "contemporary blues LP". Now, it sounds like it's from another world, and that's what's so exciting about it! The record crackles with energy, creativity and SPACE. You truly feel like you're right there in a sweaty club listening to a perfect set. By request, I went over Buddy Guy's playing on the title track "Hoodoo Man Blues". I used an Boss Wazacraft Vibrato pedal to try for the Leslie speaker Buddy used on the track. This is a great primer on some minimalist playing in A, epecially when he swaggers from the V to the IV back to the I-- that's when Buddy lets loose in this song. He is a truly great foil for the ever dynamic and riveting vocals and harp of Jr Wells. Please post any Buddy and Jr memories in the comments, I'd love to hear from you-- and your thoughts on this historic record-- the best-selling LP in Delmark's history.
