I have just begun to learn from Anders some blues. However I am a little stuck. A lot of the tab I see for the blues is in 12/8 timing. I have a firm grasp on 4/4 timing, but can't seem to get on track with 12/8 beats. Any suggestions out there.

How have you been counting the beats? For 12/8, count like so..

ONE and a TWO and a THREE and a FOUR

Hi Doug,
I recorded this lesson a few years ago. Maybe it will help:
