What are the relationships between the notes of the blues scale?

February 28th, 2010 admin 4 comments

I have been playing guitar for about 3 years now. However, I just started getting into music theory about a year ago. I think that if I could figure out or get some help figuring out the relationships between the notes in the blues (or pentatonic) scale that it would allow me to connect some of the other ideas that I have already learned and thus further my knowledge and help in my playing.

Recently set off a debate about the modes of the pentatonic fid in resolved questions.

Blues scale now being taught in UK / Rock Schools and co, is pentatonic plus flat 5th but that is a bit of a misnomer because it is the 5th of the Major scale.

Try this as already stated below but in Key of E

E G A Bb B D then octave E ( Bb is the modifier. )

Listen to Chuck Berry for example and he is often changing the minor 3rd to a Major 3rd this now often done by bending the minor note toward the major but Chuck ‘Hammers it on/pulls it off". He says he learned it from his piano player. Duke Ellington called it the blue note and there are other blue notes; Try push bending the 6th toward the diminished 7th is also cool sound like Eric Clapton, who was found switching from the Major pentatonic of the Key to the Major pentatonic of the minor relative key.
You Make ‘em work by bending the notes in! Like slide guitar work only with the fingers.
Hope that makes sense. I have nothing better to do today.

1966, Cash McCall, born Morris Dollison recorded 8 sides for Monk Higgins on the Thomas label. Cash started in Gospel along side Otis Clay, then picked up the guitar and began a long and illustrious career as musician, arranger, producer, and songwriter. His credits are too many to list here, just be assured,with over 350 songs published, and working at virtually every label in Chicago, he has worked with the best. He carries on today, recording and singing the Blues. He is simply a legend, and this is one of the best tracks from the beginning of a great career. Pookie loves this song, and I hope you enjoy this one too.

piano/music?

February 26th, 2010 admin 2 comments

Why do you think composers of this era wrote more for piano than harpsichord? Compare the piano to the expressiveness of the harpsichord in the Baroque era as in Brandenburg Concerto.

Which era are you referring to that produced more piano music than for harpsichord? Baroque? Anyway, the piano wasn’t invented until the early 1700’s when it became a sensation because performers could play it softly or loudly. That’s why it was originally called a pianoforte. Music is all about contrasts, and the piano made it easier.

I’m 20 years old and i want to open my own all ages nightclub where people can go and watch live bands perform. if you live in fresno or surrounding areas it’s like kuppajoe, starline, and the exit. I really want to know what it takes to open one, classes or how much money. i don’t plan on opening it now, but maybe in about 3 -7 years. thanks in advance for your answers!

Anybody can open up a business. You should think about reading some books on starting your business.
