Slow Blues ( The Jack Style )

Here you can learn a Slow Blues in the style of “ The Jack “ by ACDC. This is a blues with 60 BPM and in the key of E. First I going to show you the chords and the chord riff which is played and which make the signature sound of this Blues and then I going to show you a simple improvisation with the Question - Answer - Resolution “ concept. The concept works like this : You first play a motive which represents the question then play It again. After that you play the answer then play the question again and at the end comes the resolution. This is the improvisation concept which is used conscious or unconscious in most of the Blues compositions and blues improvisations. I show you the musical motifs in detail and with the proper timing. That way you understand how you can variate them in a easy way by just making variations on the timing signature. If you want to play the Jack by ACDC exactly the way as it played just listen to the original song and adapt the chords and the chord riff you learned here to the chords which are used there. But they are more or less the same and the riff is a very common blues riff which got famous by the song of AC DC. The chords which are used here are :

E7 / E7 / E7 / E7 / A7 / A7 / E7 / E7 / B / A7 / E7 / B

I'm really going to work this track, the lead parts. Because like I said we used to jammed this song back in the day. Me always playing rhythm. We never played it out, just jammed it for fun. I like what you showed us HP. A blast from my past!
