Peter Moss wksp 03: PLAY ME THE BLUES
- Exploring the 1-4-5 Blues progression Level: Intermediate
The Blues sequence in the key
of C Major has 3 chords C, F & G7.
Thats where we will start and progress through 6 different stages, each
time modifying one thing over a sequence of 12 Bars.
From where we start, you won't believe where we will end up.
If you think you have already covered this and got the T Shirt, I can
safely say, you haven't.
Although this might sound complicated, in reality, it isn’t and you
should have fun in the process.
So, don’t be shy and give it a go! |
