Playing 1st Chord of B Flat (Bb) Major Blues Scale on Piano

So now we are going to take a look at our B flat blues first looking at our B flat scale or a one chord. Three flats, right tap the two and the two of top of the group of the three, now this nice scale. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, one and then you get your blue scale which comes out of there, so we're just going to play this. One, three, five to one, four, six and your blue scale is top of the group of three or two black notes. You have this E and F in there and this A flat and that is your blue scale and we're just going to play our one chord and improvise with our blue scale. (playing piano) That is your first chord in B flat.
