Minor Blues Shuffle ala Billy Gibbons

Hey Blues Fans,
Here’s something you don’t hear to often – a minor blues shuffle. You can hear something similar by listening to Billy Gibbons play “Just Got Back from Baby’s” from ZZ Tops First Album. During the shuffle part, you’re playing a flat-3rd instead of the 6th on beat two. Watch the video and you’ll see what I mean. On beat four, you’ll play the minor (7) barre chord. I’ll also show how to play this in A-minor in the open position for you beginners who aren’t at the barre chord level.

This is pretty easy, so there’s no tab for this one.

As always, have fun.
