Charlie Christian & T-Bone Walker And The Roots Of Electric Blues/with Dave Rubin (BGS174)

What if I told you that two of the most important guitar players of the 20th century learned from the same teacher? In this episode of Boomer Guitar Sessions, we dive into the incredible story of Charlie Christian and T-Bone Walker — two pioneers who helped shape everything that came after them — and the mysterious figure who influenced them both: “Bigfoot” Ralph Hamilton, also known as Chuck Richardson. Joined by music historian and guitar educator Dave Rubin, we explore how this shared lineage connects directly to: 🎸 The birth of modern electric guitar 🎸 When and how the blues went urban 🎸 The electric guitar becoming the principal voice of the blues 🎸 The evolution from Texas blues to Chicago blues 🎸 How players like Muddy Waters carried the torch 🎸 The crucial generations between early blues and the rise of rock ‘n’ roll Charlie Christian revolutionized single-note soloing and laid the groundwork for jazz, swing, and eventually bebop guitar. T-Bone Walker brought flash, tone, phrasing, and string bending into the spotlight, helping define the sound and style of electric blues guitar. Together, their influence reaches into the playing of B.B. King, Chuck Berry, Hendrix, Clapton, and beyond. This episode isn’t just history — it’s a reminder that the guitar language we all speak today came from real people, real scenes, and a powerful lineage of mentorship and musical exchange. If you play blues… rock… jazz… or any style with roots in American guitar music — this story is part of your musical DNA. _________________________________________________________ This lesson is brought to you by The Guitar Collective.
