Once again after a period of time, I'm picking up the guitar. I've used JustinGuitar in the past (pretty 1/2 way thought Grade 1), but trying a different method this time. Basically, pick a song from an artist I like and listen to regularly. Learn that song using TAB, Youtube, etc. Get pretty decent, then pick another song. While learning song 2, refine song one. Repeat.

I really like the idea of this method, as I'm learning how to play while also working on songs that I listen to.

So, I'm looking at what Blues songs to learn first. I listen to a lot of SRV, Joe Bonamassa, BB King, Albert King, Clapton/Blues Breakers, and some Freddy King. Base of that and what I have already found as suggestions, I've come up with this list and current order:

1. Cold Shot (SRV)
2. Born Under a Bad Sign (Albert King)
3. All Your Love (Otis Rush)
4. The Thrill Is Gone (BB King)
5. Sweet Home Chicago (Clapton)
6. Steppin Out (Clapton w/The Blues Breakers)
7. Hideaway (Freddie King)
8. Stormy Monday (Allman Brothers)
9. Damn Right, I've Got the Blues (Buddy Guy)
10. Red House (Jimi Hendrix)
11. Johnny B Good (Chuck Berry)
12. Pride and Joy (SRV)
13. Texas Flood (SRV)

The Questions:

Would you change the order?
Want to add in Drive and Mountain Climbing by Joe Bonamassa. Where would you suggest I place them in the above journey?

Any suggested online or book resources for learning the songs? So far I'm using a video to learn Cold Shot. I like how it breaks things down into easier parts (which makes it feel obtainable), then builds on it.

tl;dr - Newish beginner. Want to learn by learning songs I listen to. What order should I learn the above songs in

I just got myself my first electric, a Semi Hollow Gretsch and am looking at learning electric blues after spending two years on fingerpicking acoustic. I started learning statesboro blues by the allman brothers on slide as I already know how to play slide, and it’s going pretty well. Any tips for this song? Also any other song suggestions, doesn’t have to have a classic rock sound.

Primarily I'm an indie/alternative player, but couple of weeks ago I started practicing some jazz and i've noticed i really like a lot of those classic blues players. Are there any "must know" blues songs that a serious guitar player should know? Are there blues standards just like with jazz? Any collections of those in forms of books and so on?

I've been playing the guitar as a beginner for about a month now. During this time, I've completed Justin Guitar's grade 1 modules and am currently delving into the first module of grade 2. My primary interest lies in blues guitar, particularly in the styles of Hendrix and SRV. As a result, I stumbled upon TXBA through my research.

TXBA's course guide is divided into three sections: where, how, and what. My focus primarily centers on the "what" section, which entails learning fundamental blues techniques (such as grip, bending, vibrato,...) and the speed workshop. The technique courses are all marked as intermediate level, while the speed workshop can also be undertaken by beginners.

I'm keen to hear about any experiences you've had with TXBA courses. Additionally, considering my current limited knowledge and skills, would it be advisable to embark on the technique courses and speed workshop alongside pursuing grade 2 from Justin Guitar? Is this feasible, or should I first acquire certain skills before committing to TXBA courses? If so, how many of Justin Guitar's grades should I complete? My fear is that attempting courses that are inherently too advanced will end up just delaying progress.

I'm not concerned about immediately playing songs; my priority is building a solid foundation of techniques. I'm open to any advice or new ideas on structuring my practice routine. Thank you for taking the time to read and for any guidance you can provide!
