  • Hi Guys,

    Welcome to my lesson No. 107 called Jazz Blues.

    A Jazz Blues is more complex form of the traditional Blues which usually have only 3 chords. You can spice up every normal Blues with some jazzier chords or substitutions that sound a lot more interesting.
    My Jazz Blues is in the Key of G and is a good start specially for beginners.


    The structure of the Jam track:

    A Part 0:00-0:48
    | G7 | B7 | Em7 | Dm7 G7|
    | Cmaj7 | F7 | G7 E7 | A7 D7 |
    | G7 C7 | G7 D7 |

    B Part 0:49-1:40
    | G7 | B7 | Em7 | Dm7 G7|
    | Cmaj7 | F7 | G7 E7 | A7 D7 |
    | G7 C7 | G7 Eb7 D7 Ab7 | G7 |

    Have fun! ;-)
