This blues guitar lesson will show you how you can build a complete blues solo, starting from just one good blues lick.
It was very much inspired by Albert King, so we’ll use the “Albert King Lick” to start us off and we’ll work from there…
The TAB is at HERE if you want to download it, but make sure to watch the video through a few times first.
If you dig this lick and this style of soloing, don’t forget to check out my “How To Solo Like Albert King” course. He’s one of my all time favorites!

Maybe it is my imagination but I can hear some ‘lawdy’ mama’ in there
Not that there is anything wrong with that
Hi, Griff. Great video.
Could you please display the TAB for this Albert King lick?
Thanks.
The tab is linked just above the video. https://bluesguitarunleashed.com/pdf/1lickbluessolo.pdf
He gave you a link, and the riff is displayed during the video. Do you not read or comprehend?
I put in an A9th at the end to finish. I used the main lick and mixed it up as you did but added my own. I’m just an intermediate guitarist and I actually started my musical “history” as a drummer for 9 yrs professionally. Obviously counting is extremely important and as a drummer you learn that very quickly or you just don’t get any gigs. lol.
When playing I play my guitar, counting comes naturally to me in my head no matter what time signature. However there are times where you may come across a difficult riff and you practice that riff and it does help to count out loud. Your ears are your ally.
