Description: West Side Chicago Blues Meets The 60s Surf Guitar Instrumental Craze! In this course you will learn 11 of Freddy King's classic blues guitar instrumentals from the early sixties.   I will take you through each verse of every song and teach it - as best I can - note for note from the original recordings.   In the process, I will help you to mine a virtual "King's Treasure" of licks and ideas from Freddy's seemingly inexhaustible blues guitar vocabulary.       The introduction includes a brief overview of Freddy's style and includes short lessons on the chords he used, his thumb-finger right-hand technique, soloing positions, and the Freddy King sound/tone.  I also have a short video listing what I think are the best Freddy King CDs and vinyl albums for you purchase in order to hear the original recordings of the tunes I will teach      I then go through each of the 11 tunes, verse-by-verse,  teaching the introduction, main melody lick, solos, and end tags for each song.   I break down the solo verses in each song phrase-by-phrase to help you understand and learn each individual lick Freddy used.   In places where I do not know, or am not sure, about what Freddy played, I offer my best "educated-guess."    Complete, downloadable, TABS are available for EACH verse of EACH song along with a Freddy King Chord Chart and other resources to help you understand how to play what he played.  This first volume of lessons focuses on Freddy's "more approachable" instrumental tunes - grouped by the key they are played in and generally progressing, in order, from easiest to more difficult.   Tunes taught in this volume are  Key of G: "Heads Up," "Freddy's Midnight Dream," Sad Nite Owl,"  "Washout," Key of E: "Hideaway,"  "Just Pickin'," "Funnybone,"  "Out Front,"  Key of A: "Sen-Sa-Shun," Key of C: "San-Ho-Zay,"  and "Butt
