Hey, how’s it going guys I’m Jon McLennan with Guitar Control, bringing you this video lesson, we’re looking at a song called “It Ain’t Right” by Eric Clapton, John Mayall, and The Blues Breakers. This album has an amazing record, also has some of my favorite Clapton playing.
Check the image above to follow the chords and tabs.
Here’s a great example of how a guitar can play a bass line in a song and really give it some power. So we’re looking at a blues in the key of e, and we’ve got the open e string this is the up tempo blues. We’re going to play an open e, and then slide from the third fret to the fourth fret on the same string.
I use my third finger and you play the second fret of the fifth string, and then the fourth fret of the fifth string. It’s just a small little cell, a little riff that gets repeated and repeated and then we’re going to apply it through the chord progression of the blues.
Slowly pulling up my notes, so we’ve got a 0, and then a 3, 4, and then a 2, 4, so here it is. Sometimes I’ll add a little extra zero on the low string like. Just because I’ve got that motion going, now it might take a little bit of time for you to build up that speed, so just start slow and make sure you know alternate picking there.
Then I’m playing here, all I do is to move one string higher, doing the same thing on the a string, then back to e, then applying it to b like this four slide to six, and then four, six on the fourth string. So let’s see if we can try it together a one, a two, a one, two, and three. Make sure to subscribe on our YouTube Channel and we’ll see you in our next video, thanks for watching.
