music notation for blues piano lick 005

Listen to Frank demonstrate one way to play this (with straight quarter notes outlining each chord in the left hand at 130 bpm)…

Performance Tips: 1. No flams between the left and right hand, 3. Rests are notes, too. Give them their fair value, 4. Play it the way you’d sing it and sing it like you mean it!


(If you learned something here today, consider buying Frank a coffee to say thanks)
