How to Play Rhythm Blues Guitar: Part 6
Hi! My name is John Armstrong from expertvillage.com. Today I will be discussing with you the ins and outs of electric Blues Guitar. Okay next we will take that same minor chord progression using the A harmonic minor scale, but now we are going to substitute the triads for seven chords. So now my one chord is going to change from minor triad to a minor seven, A minor seven. My D minor chord or my minor four chord triad, seven chord, and my E major chord, my five chord will change to an E dominant seven. So I have a one minor seven, a four minor seven, and a five dominant seven within the confines of 12 bars that will sound a little something like this, two, three, four.
