Blues Piano Intermediate Lick Eight

Hi. My name is Jonathan Wilson on behalf of Expert Village.com, and we're learning thirty must-have blues piano licks. Now, we've made it up to lick number eighteen, which is on the heavy end of our intermediate licks. And this one is on the heavy end of our intermediate licks. It's a triplet pattern that's got a little rolling thing in it. It kind of moves along at a good little clip. It's a good lick, it's pretty busy though. Let's do it slowly so that you can hear how it sounds with the metronome and the notation. O.K. That one's a pretty challenging lick. We're still in the intermediates. It's going to get harder but that gives you a little taste of what's coming next. There are some chops in that one. Now, practice, work with your metronome. Notch it up a notch at a time. You'll get it. But here it is full speed over the band. O.K. It's getting a little more challenging here. That was lick number eighteen and nowhere to go but up from here.
