Blues Piano Intermediate Lick Ten

Hi. My name is Jonathan Wilson on behalf of Expert Village.com, and we're learning thirty must-have blues piano licks. And we're on lick twenty of the very last of our intermediate licks before we get into the advanced stuff. This one's, it's pretty good. It's still in the intermediate range, but it's got a little bit of bite to it. Not a lot of notes, it's a little shorter than some of our other ones, but you can do it. Now, let's get right into the notation with the metronome and slow speed. O.K., so it's just got kind of a little roll, rolling pattern. Again, we've said this before about similar figures. The speed isn't exactly required to be anything like what's written in the notation. Do it at whatever speed feels comfortable and is appropriate for the moment. In general, you want the accent that pushes the downbeat, that fast little figure. And then you end with that little third thing. Here's this pattern over the full band, full chorus. Alright, if you're with me this far, we've made it through the easy and the intermediate clips. That was lick number twenty and now we're going to move into the hard stuff. Coming up next, lick twenty-one.
