Play a Blues Scale in Eb Major on the Accordion

Now we are going to go through and learn our blue scale in the right hand and we would do a little improvise with that as well. So we start right here on 1 you have your E flat; you go right to flat 3 1, flat 3, then you have your 4 up to 5. 1,3,4, up to 5 that is good to get under your fingers. 1,3,4, up to 5. Then you have your flat 7 and your 1. That is your basic blue scale notice we used all the black notes and we just have this 1 note right there. So now I'm going to play a little while I improvise using the blues. I'm going to do 7th chords in my left hand I'm going to use 1,7,5,7,4,7. Now I'm on 4,7, back to 1,7,5,4,1,4,1,5,4,1. That is the blues on the accordion.
