The blues in a nutshell is playing a few chords and then telling your story and Strange Place Blues is a perfect example of that notion. Bukka White uses a basic 1-4-5 progression in G position to pour out his grief for the loss of his mother. G, C, D in first position with an up-down strum are the nuts and bolts of this heartfelt piece.
