Lesson #70: Blues in Bb (Guitar, Intermediate)

If you've been paying attention to our other 12 bar blues lessons, you pretty much know the drill:

Bb 2 3 4
Bb 2 3 4
Bb 2 3 4
Bb 2 3 4

Eb 2 3 4
Eb 2 3 4
Bb 2 3 4
Bb 2 3 4

F 2 3 4
Eb 2 3 4
Bb 2 3 4
Bb 2 3 4 (variations during the turn around; previous blues lessons should give you an idea about this part)

The Bb Blues Scale sounds good in Bb 12-Bar Blues, as well as in Bb minor and Db major (try this past week's variety of chords).
