I do like "We don't get fooled again'' because it does have many real world cool elements (Pete.......in Pete we trust, right!!?) including rhythm riffs and timing.......but which one single song that you've broken down for us here on G.T. do you believe gives us the most mileage for launching down our own blues or bluesrock guitar path?? Thanks! Keep up these great lessons please!! Jim C.

Hey Jim, such a tough question!!! I don't think I can answer with just one but here are a few that come to mind:

Black Crowes - Hard To Handle

I Aint Got You - Yardbirds

Spoonful - Cream

Close To You - SRV

Every Day I Have The Blues - BB King

All of these songs have killer blues rhythms, and leads -- plenty of licks and riffs to dive into here!

Keep rockin!

Good question. I am at the point of learning/ improving technique through songs and wonder which songs would be recommended by the instructors.
