Blues Piano Advanced Lick Seven

Video Transcript

Hi! My name is Jonathan Wilson on behalf of expertvillage.com, and we're learning thirty must-have blues piano licks. We're up to lick number twenty-seven, which I just slipped in here. This is 100% a jazz lick. I'm sure you've heard this. It's almost a bebop lick. But, what the heck, we'll throw it in. Every once in a while, you might want to throw this one in for a little change of pace. O.K., slowly with the metronome and the notation. It sounds like this. All right? Definitely a jazz lick, but it's pretty cool. It walks down those half steps and you've heard it played on the saxophone before, I'm sure. Anyway, not too much to say. Work on your rhythmic emphasis on this one. This is again those eighth note patterns. You want to kind of stretch those out. Don't swing them too hard. They should be kind of almost sort of between swing and straight. That's the rhythmic feel you want for these. O.K., full speed over the band. Alright, that was lick number twenty-seven. A jazz lick posing as a blues lick, but it works. O.K., coming up next, lick number twenty-eight.
