This is a classic Blind Willie McTell blues played in the key of E and recorded in 1933. A handbook of the Georgia blues genius's licks in E. This song shows the master of voice-guitar dialogue at work. Sometimes voice and guitar double each other, sometimes follow. Basically 12-bars, in the last 4 bars, he slides the B7 chord up two frets and and brings it back down the B7. McTell really knew how to use metaphors.
