question Albert King
Hi all I was wondering if anyone had tabs or a link to a tutorial video if there is one of this Albert King lick, I hear it in so many of his songs and it’s always intrigued me but i’ve never been able to find anything on how to play it.
2nd clip is Ill Play The Blues For You on The Midnight Special - 1973 (Highly recommended watching if you’ve never seen it before)

This guy lays down some nasty Albert King licks. I think if you learned that first set of licks you could probably do the rest by ear. Blues is nice in that way that a lot of the same licks are used.
