I’d Rather Go Blind Bass Lesson

[greghagger]

Ever since I played I'd Rather Go blind at a gig around 15 years ago, I've always loved this bass line. It's so simple but works so perfectly.

 

I'm talking about the original Etta James version recorded in 1967. But there have been a lot of covers since then by artists such as Beth Hart, Christine McVie and most recently, Dua Lipa.

 

In the latest GBS YouTube lesson I show you how to play the Etta James bass line and also go through some key features of the Beth Hart/Bonamassa bass line.

You can get a free PDF of the bass lines in standard notation and Tab under the video lesson. 

 

Enjoy!
