8-Bar Blues Chord Progression in B-flat
Hey Blues Fans!
I heard an 8-bar blues progression the other day and I liked it so much that I thought I’d make a lesson out of it. It’s not your typical I-IV-V chord progression; it has a much jazzier feel. In the chord chart and tab, you can see that all the chords are only three notes and they are all played on the bottom four strings. I like to finger pick or hybrid pick all the chords – use whichever technique is more comfortable for you. You can even strum the chords, but make sure to deaden the A-string on the Bb7, G7, and F7.
I posted both the chord charts and the tablature, so you should have no problems learning the chords. The video will give you some good tips on the fingering and picking techniques. You should have this thing mastered quickly.
I will post a nice solo to play over these chords in the next day or two, so check back.
