Playing 5th Chord of B Flat (Bb) Major Blues Scale on Piano

Now we're going to learn our five chord out of the E flat blues. So if we count out in our B flat again, one, two, three, four, five, we come to F and we have our F seven and the scale is like this. So you have one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, one and you see how I have this tap two notes of the group of three and group of two there. We get our one, three, five, one, four, six, going again and just keep with our same blues scale. (playing piano) It usually goes to the four back to one again five and this is one three up two five. So you have these nice chromatic notes in there, and this is your five chord out of the B flat blues.
