I listened to the podcast on my morning walk, pulled up this TH-cam video this afternoon, and played with BB King on You Tube afterward. GREAT! I love it! Thank you, Desi!
This was a good introduction to the song that's song number 2 of your soloing series. I have to admit that some of the concepts don't resonate with a head shake in the affirmative just yet. But I'm sure they will as I progress. The beauty of video is being able to go back and compare your own progress with what's expained in the in the "How Does This Work" video. Best to have two windows or else two devices queued up!
Great lesson Desi. Greetings from London Uk. For over 30 years, I thought I knew how this song worked. Now I definitely know. Any pointers for the tone you have there. I guess its a Kemper but what would it be based on?
The Kemper profile I used was made using a Fender Tweed Deluxe amplifier. I used a clean profile with reverb for the chords. I used a low gain profile with reverb and delay for the lead.
The progression is I-IV-♭VI-V and the song is in B minor. You said that the ♭ VI is G. But if the song is in B minor than the VI for B minor is G and flat VI is G flat and not G as you said. So, I presume that when you referred to the ♭VI in the chord progression, you are actually referring to the flattened VI from the parallel B Major scale and that would be G. I hope this helps someone, as it confused me but I figured it out.
The distance from B to G is the music interval known as a flat sixth. It's one half-step lower than the 6th that occurs in the major scale, which is the measuring stick in music. So, in the key of B minor, G is bVI.
@@desisernaguitar But the notes of the B minor scale are: B, C#, D, E, F#, G, A. From there I concluded that the bVI is G flat (I counted to six and than went back a half-step). If the major scale is the "measuring stick", than I understand, the flat VI is G, but it confused me since we are talking about a progression based on a minor scale. Anyway, Thanks for the reply and explanation! It means a lot! ☺
