Description

Now you have a good grasp on how to approach a Jazz Blues. Each lesson has led you step by step with all the substitutions and new chords involved. Take the time to review all the other lessons, and work now to change the key of the progression and begin exploring it on your own. Also, listen to this common form in the jazz music that you already know.


To finish things up, I am going to play the Jazz Blues form two different ways. The first time through I am going to approach the form using only the examples from this tutorial. The second time through I am going to play through the form using my own licks, ideas, and solos to demonstrate how I would approach this in a live playing context. Enjoy the lessons and go practice!
