From Minor Pentatonic to Blues Power House with Two Tricks - Ukulele Blues Tutorial

New Ukulele Tutorials every Wednesday and Saturday, subscribe and learn! Return of the #10DayBluesChallenge July 1st! The minor pentatonic is the scale that most people learn to use when it comes to soloing, and the people use it to solo over the blues as well. Sometimes it is hard to make the minor pentatonic really pull out some tasty blues flavor, but these two little tricks will help you turn the minor pentatonic scale into a full blown blues power house. We will walk you through the chords and the roman numeral system and show you what they look like as a 12 bar. After that we will review the minor pentatonic scale and then we will put it into play. The minor pentatonic has a minor 3rd interval and the root chord, the A7, has a C# note, the major 3rd in it. Playing on the difference between these two notes is an extremely bluesy sound. You can also use the blues curl (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Nk-F4t6747g) but we will show you how to really step it up with a nice hammer on rhythm and some really cool shapes up the fretboard. The other technique is the b5th. The b5th itself has a very interesting history, going on as far as being outlawed by the church and coming to be known as "The Devil's 5th" and seeing as Robert Johnson sold his soul to the devil to learn to play the blues, so it only seems right. We will rock out a 5th lick and put it all together and at the end of the play along a little blues turnaround for good measure.
