Content

Today we are going way old school, to the 8 bar blues. An older blues format that was not popularized as much as the 12 bar, but still tasty and great for jamming. In the tab I transposed the blues into G and E as well so you can see how to create this in a key that you comfortable jamming in or singing in, with some extra tips on the licks. Try the backing track with the licks to get a real feel for playing with other musicians.
