Next Level Blues Chords! (boost your 12-bar rhythm guitar playing)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 30 дек 2022
- Take your 12-bar blues guitar form to the next level by changing up the chords you play. These chords extensions will add greater variation to your rhythm playing, and a touch of jazz. Also, these chords are essential to get to know as they do appear in lots of famous songs, such as T-Bone Walker's and The Allman Brothers "Stormy Monday."
Combine the chords with some minor pentatonic soloing and you have a great sequence you can use when playing with jam tracks, with a band, or just on your own.
Guitar lessons from Vancouver teacher Blue Morris shows you how to play these chords and apply them to the 12-bar blues form.

In less than a week and 5 years of watching music video tutorials...you have become my favorite instructor
Awesome thanks for the great feedback!
I agree. No disrespect but move over Marty & Justin. Blue is my new go-to guy. Plus he’s 🇨🇦. 👍
Yes, this exactly. I bet Blue is buzzing with his amazing feedback.
This is literally the video that i've been wanting to see but haven't found. I listen to a lot of blues and always wondered about those jazzy "transitional" chords that pop up from time to time.Thanks!
Great thanks Paul!
My first youtube video of 2023... and what a great start. Another one of those sounds amazing and conceptually quite simple tutorials.
Here's hoping you continue to provide us with more great content.
All the best to you and your family blue.
Thanks so much Bb! Happy new year! It's still 2022 here, but not for long.

what a great lesson - I tried adding the 9 to the min pentatonic and it sounds great as a passing note into the min 3rd
Cool! Good idea. I have a video on adding the 9 to minor pentatonic if you haven't seen that yet ruclips.net/video/DBaWwznXxnw/видео.html

Perfect mix of ideas, technique and theory.
Glad you enjoyed it
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver Rimouski
That cool Vancouver. Did you heard about Rimouski jazz festival?
@@jsouellet901 I have not heard of that festival. Just looked it up. Looks cool.
Try this tomorrow. Thx!

Thx for so enlightning lessons, always as simple to get and efficient ones !
Like your sparkling sound also, very bright and punchy in a good way ( treeble boost somewhere ?)
Thx again for good job here 👍
Thanks Chritophe, for most of the videos I'm playing through the UA Dream 65.
Nice lesson. But beautiful Samick. I just bought a 1996 Vantage 635v with SD pearly gates. This is the second one I have owned. Same company. Thanks for your great lessons.
Thanks Gary! I got that Samick from a pawn shop in the 90s. I still really like it.
@DM ON NICEGRAM APP👉GuitarLessonsVancouver ok.what?
You are fuckin great, SUBSCRIBED!!
I just jumped into my first blues jam today, not bad but wasn't too sure what chords to play, I faked it, but now I won't! Thanks man
Nice! Good for you for getting up there on stage. 👍
How you don’t have more subscribers is crazy. Thank you
Thanks! It's growing, slowly but surely. Thanks for your support
Thanks, this is cool. I did a little exploring and compared the notes in each of the scales of A, D and E. What I noticed was that the notes that are common between them are: A, B, C#, E, and F#. which is the major pentatonic scale. So, wouldn't it be better to play the A major pentatonic scale over this chord progression rather than the A minor scale?
The blues form is a curios one, and maybe that's what makes it so fun. You are right, major pentatonic is the natural scale for these chords, but somehow minor pentatonic also works, the dissonance giving us the blues-y sound. So you can do both. I have a video coming soon on that 😀
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver Yeah, I realize that the blues is basically minor scale played over major chords, and that's what makes it sound bluesy. Thanks for the feedback!
Seems that the major scale is more tricky to use on blues progression... Some advices needed to help avoid non fitting notes in that harmonic context ? Launching the major/ minor hard deal ? Thx again 👍
@@Flashtofchannel Major pentatonic will work on a blues form, though not the full major scale, you're right about that. I do have a video coming up that deals with switching from major pentatonic to minor pentatonic. It will be out soon :)
@@bluemorris thx again Mr Blue for one more great lesson comming ! I'll be all ears and following 😉✌️
Hey thanks, fun lesson. Do you have a course for intermediate/ advanced acoustic blues? 🙏✌️🎸🍺
Sorry I don't. I'd like to make one, but I'm finding I'm running out of time each week. I have our Patreon group which is mostly electric guitar and soling, next up I'm working on Book 2 of my Soling book www.bluemorris.com/shop
What guitar is that? Love the sound and the look. I am a sucker for hollow & semi-hollows.
Thanks! It's a Samick Artist Series I bought from a pawn shop in the 90s. They don't make them any more.
Brilliant lesson 👍
thanks Mike!
Great lesson. If one moves the 9 chord two frets up the neck, isn’t it A6? I see some notation for D9 that also bars the high E. Is that correct?
Hmm not sure what you mean shape wise, of course that's hard to describe in text. There are some shapes that can be ambiguous on the guitar, and of course many that are similar but different.
Great lesson. So is that A9 shape also a G6/9 chord?
Interesting... G6/9 would be G B D E A and this A9 shape is A G B E ... I think you could say that, though with A on the bottom.
0:07 um how do you do 'the old Stand by' ?
and the guitar is Gorgeous !
It's the riff im playing at that moment in the video. See this tab from another video bars 1-2, it's the same: www.bluemorris.com/post/acoustic-blues-chord-solo-lesson
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver thanks for this
Wishing you would have shown the pentatonic patterns for four and five chords! Great lesson though!🙏🙏🙏
Excellent lessons! Can I ask the name and the model of this beautiful guitar?
That is a Samick Artist model that I bought at a pawn shop in the 1990s. They don't make them any more.
@@GuitarLessonsVancouver thank you!!
❤
👍🎸
So, I am confused. My chord analyzer app says your A9 is an A7sus2?
Pretty much the same thing, a 9 is a 2 up an octave. You could call it that.
Blue, if you carry on taking the mystery out of learning guitar then pretty soon any old chump will be able to play! 😂 How bout a lesson on those licks you used to fill between the chords?
Thank you! I do have a video on my favourite licks here: ruclips.net/video/R7cgcC3aMGk/видео.html
Best thing about 9chords is it looks like you're giving someone the finger.
I've noticed that too
For that first chord, why wouldn't you just use your thumb?
You can use your thumb if you prefer. Works both ways.
thanks! New to your channel but I'm pretty sure I'll get through them all eventually.
@Tom King Cool, welcome to the channel, happy to have you here 😀
9th's don't sound as good to my ear as 7th's
Nice to some variety of sounds either way. Thanks for watching 👍
