Hello friends,

welcome back to Swiftlessons for another lick of the week tutorial! In today's session we'll be examining a jazzy I to IV transition lick in the key of B major. Studying this useful phrase will reveal essential jazz lead techniques including:  

• The minor second (upper neighbor) root note substitution. 

• Chromatic walkups to chord tones.  

• Chord arpeggiation.

• Rest stroke picking technique.

Tablature:

In this example, we see how our lick of the week can be applied to a standard jazz-blues chord progression. In this case, it's being used as a transition between the I chord B7 and the IV chord E9.

oh yeah, there are goodies from previous lessons, now I'm really glad I took the time to understand the structure of the measures back then. Thanks!
