Time to complete our series on reading sheet music, and today we will talk about all the vital information you will need to read sheet music if you are a blues player. We will break down the infamous 12/8 swing time signature that is so famous in blues music and "accidentals" or playing notes from other keys (the minor 3rd and the flat 5th to mention a few!) After this you should feel confident in your ability to read sheet music and you should be having some fun with it!

*** The tabs are a little more challenging in printed form than the video at the end, I watered it down a little bit to make it easier for people to follow but the printable versions have a couple little hot licks and fills to take it further!***
