Billy Gibbons rhythm study - ZZ Top

Billy Gibbons is of course the guitarist and primary lead vocalist of American rock band ZZ Top. However, his style and influence goes way beyond the band. His cool laid back attitude to life and dress style (he is rarely seen not wearing sunglasses) also flows through his rhythm and lead playing.

In this lesson, we'll take a look at a slow, swampy 12 bar blues in A major, inspired by La Grange and other ZZ Top classics. See the lead study of Billy Gibbons in the next video!
