From the album Me and Mr Johnson. A tribute to Robert Johnson This is given the boogie woogie treatment from Eric but still retains the classic blues structure. Eric plays this considerably faster than the original. It is a good test for novice to improve strummimg. Those more experienced players will use 7th chords throughout and a progression down the neck in Johnson style Other tabs are available for lead players.

À propos de la chanson

Dans cette chanson, l’artiste évoque une séparation douloureuse avec sa partenaire, exprimant son désespoir et son anxiété face à son absence. Il utilise des métaphores liées à des armes à feu pour illustrer son agitation et son intensité émotionnelle, faisant allusion à un sentiment de vulnérabilité. Le ton est à la fois tragique et désinvolte, mêlant amour et frustration. Le contexte musical de ce morceau s'inscrit dans l'hommage à l'héritage du blues, en particulier celui de Robert Johnson. Le rythme entraînant et le son boogie woogie donnent une nouvelle énergie à ce classique, tout en préservant son essence mélancolique. Eric Clapton, avec sa technique et son approche unique, fait ressortir à la fois la tradition et la modernité du blues, rendant ainsi hommage à ces émotions universelles.
