Building a Blues from the Ground Up

In this unique lesson, Pat Donohue takes a simple 12 bar blues in the key of G and shows how you can add various elements to create a distinct arrangement. Pat discusses:

• Basic Three Chord Blues in Key of G

• Lenny Breau's Two Note Chords

• Walking Bass Lines & Chords

• Chuck Berry Licks

• Diminished Chord Licks

• Mountain Blues Licks

• Ending Licks

• Putting the Pieces All Together

There are lots of ideas and techniques in this lesson. Pat slowly and carefully teaches these concepts with the help of a split screen. This allows the student to study in detail what the left and right hands are doing. A comprehensive PDF tab/music booklet is included on the DVD.
