Bad, Bad Leroy Brown - Jim Croce - Guitar Lessonby Jim Croce

Lesson notes

Leroy Brown is another of Jim Croce’s rockin’, blues tunes with a great story, simple chord progression, and many ways of playing. This lesson starts with a Campfire Version, playing open chords, continues with a Power Chord Version using a common shuffle vamp, and concludes with the way Jim really played it using exclusively barre chords and chromatic passing bass notes. The first two versions are pretty easy but the Real Version can be exhausting.
