In this free blues guitar video lesson by Jody Worrell we will focus on playing blues rhythm guitar. We're going to learn up the neck positions for playing the C7 and F9 chords. Being able to play chords at multiple places on the neck enables you to smoothly transition from a lead part or riff back to rhythm playing because your hands don't have to move as far. We'll play these chords over the jam track "Over the Weather in C" which is track 6 from the Let's Jam! Blues & Rock Vol. 3.
