Call It Stormy Monday (But Tuesday Is Just As Bad) T-bone walker guitar lesson
In this video guitar lesson we hear Sandy Buglass play yet another T-bone track for spytunes Blues Legacy Series.
In this most famous blues track we hear T-bone complain that "they Call It Stormy Monday, but Tuesday is just as bad." A line that has come to represent the blues as much as "Woke Up This Morning" has.

Spytunes updates and T-bone mixing
Been carrying on the endless task of writing the articles around each song, no one told me that playing guitar was gonna mean writing stuff on the computer all day!
I remember Ace saying that he started a band and ended up becoming a record company MD with Skunk, at the time I thought, well that was your choice though wasn't it? This comes back to me as I'm sitting here typing away...
So i'll stop complaining right now...
So, what's been going on lately at Spytunes?
Well apart from the article writing I have finally managed to get some google ads working yoo-hoo! and loads of articles done now, half way through intermediate with:
I'm Yours
Angie
Mad World
Blowin in the wind
1234
American Pie
Kiss Me
Hey There Delilah
and Fast Car
all done, I can't tell you how nice that feels!
I've been going between this and recording with Sandy Buglass for spytunes blues legacy series, he's back tomo again doing Clapton and Peter Green, maybe even some Jeff Beck, yes!
The process of recording, mixing, video editing is a long one, and it does take it out of me. Today I encountered the problem of how to mix the legendary T-Bone Walker.
T-bone is one of my favorites, he was doing the splits and playing the guitar behind his back when Jimi Hendrix was only a twinkle in his daddies eye, so if you want electric guitar, T-bone truly is the father, possibly with Charlie Christian as the uncle...
So i'm in Amplitube, which is where i spend most of my days, and I just realized that T-bone recorded before any of the amps in this program was even invented. Leo Fender hadn't even started building amps when T-bone was laying the foundations for modern electric guitar playing. Suddenly a '59 Bassman didn't seem so retro anymore...
