Tune Up
-
Monkey Paw *
"Monkey Paw - "This is a Muddy Waters-inspired shuffle with a backbeat. It's a more modern approach to a late '70s Chicago Blues style. Try using major country licks mixed with a few "blues" notes.
-
Whitey's Blues *
A collision of the old and new Mississippi hill stomp. This tune feels like a cross between R.L. Burnside and T-Model Ford, recently brought up to date by bands like the White Stripes. This one's - open - try some funky rock or slide tricks.
-
Austin Skyline Shuffle *
A classic "Stevie Ray Vaughan" groove - a Texas shuffle that Stevie made his own. A cool half step up turnaround allows you to stretch out.
-
A Minor Affair *
"A Minor Affair" - Classic B.B. King - a modernized version of a '70s Bobby Bland "uptown NY to LA" minor blues romp. This version substitutes a major 7th chord a half-step up from the V chord and an augmented V chord for the IV. Try using pure minor pentatonic scales throughout. Be sure to capitalize on the altered turnaround with arpeggios.
-
Little Girl Shuffle *
"Little Girl Shuffle" - Straight blues with Gospel chord change and a little Freddy King "mojo" thrown in. Very fun to play over - let the chords do the work.
-
Funky Woman *
"Funky Woman" - A very funky track with early '70s Midwest/Chicago/Detroit influences. Can be played using minor or dominant scale tones. Think Albert King.
-
Georgia Rocker *
"Georgia Rocker" - This one is classic on-the-beat shuffle right out of the late '60s/early '70s Southern rock era. You can push the envelope a bit on this one with a more gritty tone of Duane Allman-inspired slide.
-
Slow Down Blues *
B.B. King/T-Bone styles with 6/9 chords on the turnaround. It embodies bit of East St. Louis ala Chuck Berry's "Wee Wee Hours"
-
Highway Sign *
"Highway Sign" - This is a rocker with Delta changes. This Robert Johnson/Stones'
-
Devil's Corner *
"Devil's Corner" - Here's a country blues two-beat ala Little Walter that takes you from Mississippi to Chicago. Try classic dominant blues solos or even some slides.
-
Texas Blues +
"Texas Blues" - Key of A. Look to Delta Bluesman like John Lee Hooker, Muddy Water and the arena rock flair of ZZ Top for Inspiration
-
East Coast Blues +
"East Coast Blues" - Key of A. This blues-based '70s British flavored rocker begs for punch "horn jab" style soloing and period correct double-stops
-
Groovin' Blues +
"Groovin' Blues" - Key of E. This rootsy blues-rocker sounds like a '64 Cadillac cruising the open road. Consider using big, fat half notes to make your statement.
-
Laid Down Blues +
"Laid Down Blues" - Key of E. Swampy electrified delta blues meets freight train groove. Use the breaks to stake your claim. -
Modern Blues +
"Modern Blues" - Key of A. Slashing barebones blues boogaloo - let your atonal dissonant freak flag fly
-
Stone Blues +
"Stone Blues" - Key of A. Syncopated rhythm guitar and driving beat. Great for searing slide or roadhouse riffing.
-
50's Rock N' Roll *
"50's Rock 'n Roll" -This is straight-ahead, driving '50's rock 'n roll, bridging the gap between church and blues music. Here's a great opportunity to pull all the classic rock 'n roll chops out: Little Richard, Chuck Berry double stops and eighth note piano riffs.
-
Jazz Swing Blues *
"Jazz Swing Blues" - Texas jazz-blues shuffle from the late '40s. This sound came from the big bands from West Texas. Listen to any of T-Bone's shuffles, particularly "Two Bones and a Pick". Chance to throw some 6ths and 9ths into the mix. Maybe create a more jazz-like "head" as a motif.
-
Second Line Blues *
"Second Line Blues" - Originally from New Orleans and used for funerals and parades; broadly called a "second line". Listen to The Meters, Very rhythmic or very minor/major legato-style playing. Explore some of the notes in the altered IV chord - 6ths and 9ths - as well as the V chord, which is a flat V substitution.
-
Classic Stop-Time Blues *
"Classic Stop-Time Blues" - Classic stop-time blues a la Muddy Waters/Freddy King/B.B. King. B.B. King major melodic bends. Freddy King-style interval playing, allow the breaks on the 1 chord to help build a verse-type melody - then load up for the solo.
- Chicago *
