Grammy-nominated blues virtuoso Marcus King is a player with extraordinary depth and breadth in his repertoire. While his most recent album, 2022's "Young Blood" is pure fuzz-soaked blues rock, Marcus is equally well versed in jazz, soul and gospel, along with his superb vocal slide playing. In short, I'd be doing him a disservice if this tech session simply focussed on his latest output. To this end, this tech session is divided into three distinct sections - the first being a study of the gospel-style comping heard on the earlier Marcus King Band albums, particularly 2016's eponymous release, "The Marcus King Band". The second part of this session focuses on Marcus's outstanding Duane Allman-esque slide work, while the final section looks at the fuzz-laden barrelhouse soloing heard on King's most recent release. But before we get stuck in, let's take a look at the gear we used to get the tones in this session.
