Topic: Online resources for learning basic blues

Not sure if this is the right place to post this, so mods, please feel free to move it if need be.

I'm looking for some good FREE online places to help me learn the basic blues licks and chords and such.  I'd like to be the next Duane Allman.  HA!  Seriously, any help would be greatly appreciated.  I've found a couple of spots, but need more.

Re: Online resources for learning basic blues

This one is a good place to start.

Also if you visit you local gear shop, they should have some instructional DVDs and books. With my job it's impossible to take formal lessons, so that's what I had to resort to.

Try having a look at truefire.com (http://truefire.com/index2.html)

Lots of stuff there. I'm a member of Licklibrary and Truefire, and  think both are great

Re: Online resources for learning basic blues

Hey, thanks, you guys.  All three of those places are ones I hadn't yet seen and they seem to have some great tips and tricks.  On my way to being the next Duane Allman.  HA!
