Freddy King is one of my favorite electric blues guitar masters ... and what I like about the folowing song and transcription is that Freddy played (recorded) this tune, "Dust My Broom," on the acoustic guitar ... so there's a nice mix of useful acoustic blues guitar riffs/licks, as well as some licks/riffs that are typical of his work in/on electric blues guitar.
As always ... take your time ... play it slow ... pay attention to the notes that are tied together (triplets - counted 1-2-3, or trip-a-let, or dah-dah-dah) ... learn to crawl before you walk or run ... learn one measure at a time ... once you can finger all the postions and notes, try playing it as a medium shuffle ... but remember ... all of this should sound just as good played slowly as it does at a medum or fast tempo.

Have fun.



Cheers,

thanks hawkeye, it will go in the collection, do please keep em coming.

Sweet.... Thank you so much Hawkeye! Really love Freddy King's stuff. Thank you for posting this one as an acoustic piece. I really appreciate that.

jaycee and Bluesguy,

Happy to oblige ... I think you'll find some useful locks/riffs that you can use in other blues songs.

Note that the first four bars/measures of the introduction are Freddy King's version of the classic Elmore James lick, but played without a slide.

Enjoy.

Hawkeye
