This song was written and played by Christopher Lennertz, the music producer for the episode of 'Supernatural'. While it isn't actually a Robert Johnson song, it is a great example of Delta Blues. It is a standard blues shuffle in E (played with a capo on 1 in the show and so in 'F').
This lesson will explain how to play this 12 bar blues in E and go through in detail each part that can be heard in the show.
This lesson includes full hand-written tablature (sample below) for this arrangement (right) and an extensive and detailed video breakdown of the song (1hr 9min).
You can check out a sample of the tab below and samples of the video lesson to the right.
Key techniques in this genre are examined as they appear in the song. Using songs as the basis for learning and breaking down techniques is a far more motivating way to develop as a guitarist than by practicing isolated exercises.
Get your own digital copy of either just the tablature or the tablature and the full 1hr 9min video lesson by making a contribution through PayPal below. You can then instantly download the files for yourself without the hassle of subscriptions, creating accounts or the special players that other lesson websites make you use. You can play the video file however you wish, though I recommend using VLC which allows you to easily adjust speed playback (with far more control than most built-in lesson players) and also lets you use the chapters embedded in the video.
