Default Guitar Lick of the Month - Fancy turnaround in A

Who ever thought of putting a B7 chord in an A blues turnaround?

A lot of those Piedmont players did it and here's how you can too.

Enjoy

Any kid under 18 who hasn't yet had their creativity stifled by music theory.

Thanks for the link. I tried it and it adds a bit of flavour

Thanks for posting that Toby. I always seem to be stuck on the bottom 3 frets for most of my playing unless I slap the capo on.
I really need to learn more about how to move up and back down the neck in the various keys. This is a cool turn-around.
Cheers.

Glad you enjoyed that one. Music theory can get in the way but I believe it can help if applied in the correct way.
