For those who rather play than sing I made an instrumental version of Canned Heat.
I'm using the basic features of the song and add a lot of licks and ideas of other bluesmen like Lonnie Johnson, Baby Tate and Scrapper Blackwell.
The first verse is like the intro we've seen in the lesson part 1 but I added a little more bounce.
The second verse, this is where the explanation starts in this video, is based on the playing behind the singing but I substituted several sections with some alternate chords.
The third verse is based on a typical Lonnie Johnson bass solo; many of his solo recordings between 1927-32 have such a solo.
The fourth verse uses a few modern ideas like a little boogie.
The fifth verse uses the ascending lick Tommy Johnson uses in Big Road Blues; I'm ending with a typical Lonnie Johnson endtag.
The 4th and 5th verse are explained in the next video (Part 4)
