The music sounds a little like Pride and Joy by Stevie Ray Vaughan. What the kid is singing is different though. I’m not quite sure. I can almost place it. Same as you probably.

12 bar blues. Every guitar student knows this one. Whenever anyone wants to improvise blues this is what they use.

The style could be anyone, including SRV, but the voice doesn’t quite sound right.

This is probably the most popular blues line there ever was. It was initially identified with what is called Mississippi Blues, which was the blues sub-genre coming from the flatlands and cottonlands in southern Mississippi and Lousianna. It originally reached the masses through recordings by Robert Johnson who would slow it down, speed it up, change the key, enter some interesting chord progression and damn-near make it unrecognizable. From Muddy Waters’ Laverne to Albert King’s Kansas City and stretching all the way back to Robert Johnson and beyond, it has been pliable and easy to write lyrics for:

I’m goin’ to Kansas City,
Kansas City, here I come
Yes, goin’ to Kansas City,
Kansas City, here I come
They got a crazy way a-lovin’
an’ a I wanna get me some

Or Muddy Waters’ syncopation:

Laverne, why you treat me so mean?
Baby, why you treatin’ me so mean?
Like when I ask you for wine
And you gimme gasoline.

It’s a good place to start for a beginning guitarist. And non-aficionados are impressed when you suddenly take up a beer bottle and use it like a slide ala Mississippi Freddy McDowell—which is easier than fretting and has a great sound when done well.

I think it’s 1, 3, 5 progression on the pentatonic scale or something like that. 7th on the turn around. But now I’m out of my water. Yetanotheruser could answer every question having to do with this. This is Kindergarten for him.
