[Gm]
A lot of the licks I'm going to give you start off with this lick.
[A#] That's kind of the launching point.
[G]
That first little triplet salvo.
I'm going to be in the key of G for our listening and dining pleasure.
So let's just get started.
Let me just show you that main first lick and kind of a variation of it.
One, two, three.
[Gm] Stopped it short the second time, but that's all right.
It's okay.
This is the blues.
And hey, hey, the blues is all right.
Now one way that we can speed just that lick up, everyone from Buddy Guy to Jimmy Page
to Festus McCorkendale, the all night pounders.
I don't really know who that is.
All these individuals would do this lick with shameful abandon and again would drive their
patrons into a I don't know what.
And that's this.
One, two, three, four.
Days later, they're just going to go.
Okay.
You know what I'm saying?
You can get it even more.
Screw
[D] [Em] it up here and there, but that adds to the frosting, the paste, if you will.
Gristle, as I like to say it.
So use that lick at the blues jam.
People are going, wait a minute, this cat's a player of some kind of deviant persuasion.
Now you can add any number of different variations to this particular onslaught that could be
deployed as attention grabbers at the height of the solo.
And if you add the flatted fifth in on the G note at the sixth fret, add it into our stew.
It sounds something like [Dm] this.
So you're [G] cruising along.
[Dm]
[Gm] [D] [G]
You can get it real crazy and start doing this kind of almost like a sweep thing.
Let [E] me show you that.
[G]
[C#m] Or you can do it with your third finger and pinky if you want.
[G]
Oh, horsey.
A lot of the licks I'm going to give you start off with this lick.
[A#] That's kind of the launching point.
