Lesson notes

The blues and its many forms are a constantly evolving type of music, and your playing should reflect that. By learning how to alter and substitute chords within the standard form of the blues, you will go from playing stale harmonies to bouncing around the neck using chord melody. A good rhythm player knows how to keep movement and melodic structure intact while playing over basic chord changes, and this in-depth lesson on chord substitutions will help you learn how do exactly that!
