In this episode of Fender Play Live, our experts break down Elvis Presley’s iconic early hit “That’s All Right”. Originally written by Arthur Crudup, Elvis released his version as his debut single in 1954 and added his country western influence with a faster tempo to create what is often called one of the earliest examples of rock and roll music. In this lesson we’ll show you the guitar chords used, why the progression is a classic example of a simple I-IV-V, and how to achieve Elvis’s rhythmic strumming pattern. We’ll also break down Scotty Moore’s melodic guitar solo, Bill Black’s walking bass line, and show you how to get the right tone for that classic rock and roll sound.
