Video Transcript

" In this section I'm going to talk about the Blues Structure, now that we know our chords let's do the Blues in A. So we start with A Minor and we're going to do that for four bars A Minor, one, second bar, second bar, second bar and then we're going to go to four which happens to be D, D Major for two bars now A Minor for two bars. A Minor for two bars now the five of the chord for one bar, four of the chord, one, for two so it's the twelve bar Blues and why am I saying numbers like this? One, well if we're doing the Blues in A then A is one and so the Blues are just the one, four and the five of the chord A, B, C, D, D is the four A, B, C, D, E, E is the five so the Blues structure is A for four bars, D for two bars, A for two bars, five for one bar, four for one bar and A for two bars, that's the Blues."
