3 Comments on “I Got the Same Old Blues: Freddie King”
I knew Freddie King and he was one of the humblest people ever to grace a stage. A man who’s main motivation was to express his emotions with his guitar. When I was 14, I asked him “How can I learn to play the guitar like that?” he said “If you go into a room and there’s a guitar in there, play it til you leave the room.”
Then he taught me the Pentatonic scale. My one and only lesson with him.

Beto,
One and only lesson seems a huge privilege. His guitar plying is amazing as is his voice-I love him and his blues!
