Hello friends,

Thanks to popular demand (and a plumbing emergency in my studio), I took time today to create a study guide to go along with my popular "Top Secret Blues Tricks" tutorial. In this lesson I've broken down some of my favorite lead and rhythm techniques to enhance a 12 bar blues. These are tricks that I’ve acquired through countless jam sessions, and endless hours of studying players like Robben Ford, SRV, Brownie McGhee, and Lightnin' Hopkins. Let’s get started!

Thanks Rob! Struggling with the theory behind turnarounds... E, G, A, A#, B, etc. are all in the E blues scale, but what's happening when we're hearing G# and C# in the turnaround? I realize they're in the shuffle as well -- are we just hitting chord notes there and not worrying about scales?

Oh, great question! These notes are being drawn from two scales for extra flavor: the E blues scale and also the E major scale. This is possible because we are in a major key. So remember this, minor and major scales sound great over major chord progressions, especially when the chords are dom7ths. If this was a minor progression, we would not be throwing in the major scale. Any questions?

After watching a lot of Rob's videos, this one seems to me to be one of his most natural teaching styles with some personal input. It's fun looking back 5 years ago (from 2020) to see the teaching styles change, with a balance between instruction and inspiration.
