B.B. King Style Lead (Bonus For Premium Members) – EP102 – B – BB King

Description

In honor of B.B. King’s passing last week, I wanted to create a lesson showcasing some classic B.B. King style licks. This is a bonus lesson that’s only available to Premium Members this week. This lesson uses the same MP3 jam track as EP102-A the T-Bone Walker style lead and rhythm guitar lesson

    I wanted to add that another blue note slide in the B.B. style is with regard the 6th in the key of A. It is an F# slide from natural f toF#. example slide F to F# A then B and C. Go back down and end with D

    Aha! In olden days Brian didn’t number his lessons, but if you go back and find the old lesson called “BB King Style Solo”, it can be played perfectly over this jamtrack – thus doubling the length of your lead solo.
