Content

The other day we learned a beginner fingerpicking blues in G (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0TK0F...) and added a basic turnaround at the end of it.

When you are thinking about taking the blues to the next level this is how I do it.

1.Establish the basic pattern.

2.Add a basic turnaround

3. Work out another 5 or so really cool flashy turnarounds

4. Add more movement to the rhythm section

5. Work out some licks, fills, walking bass lines

6. Shred a random solo.

The purpose of today's lesson is to focus on that 3rd step, so you can take that fingerpicking blues you have been playing and add a lot of flare and fun to the last two measures.

The first turnaround will feel pretty familiar, it is a fairly basic delta blues turnaround that we have seen in a couple of forms, but turnarounds 2 and 3 are very unique delta blues turnarounds that I spent a lot of time listening to Robert Johnson and tried to capture his essence with those. The real fun however, the really cool turnarounds, are 4 and 5. They are Piedmont blues and I have never really done anything like them before, I had a lot of fun putting them together, and playing them, I know you will too! Disclaimer. I had technical issues putting this lesson together, I know the image and sound quality aren't up to par, but in 5 years I haven't missed a single lesson, and I wasn't going to start today!
