From new CD, available at cdbaby.com or www.tallstrom.com TAB at http This may not be that easy but hard work has never been more fun:) Now if I could only take the gum out of my mouth when recording… Licks similar to those used can be found at my website.

These tracks gave me some awesome ideas. They are from the library of tracks that Pete Anderson made for Guitar Center’s King of the Blues competition from this past year, of which I was also a contestant. Although blues calls for a certain “type” of player, there are a few players over the past year that i’ve studied that have adapted more of a jazz flare to standard blues progressions. Since 7th chords open themselves up to so many possibilities, it’s easier for me to make decisions on the guitar that I end up enjoying. I will always like a flat 7. Flat 7 is MY number.
This is great lick because you only have to learn Two Chord Forms – and you can extend it out over 12 – 24 bars! Big rewards for just a little work! In the Key of C, and the forms can be used over C, F, G, even D for instant solo work. Got the first part from an Albert Lee instructional set. Played on a B-Bender Telecaster through a Dr. Z Amp.
Slow Blues, Audio only. This is me playing BB King’s Sweet Sixteen. I try to build up the song as best as i could. Please let me know what you think. Equipment – Fender Stratocaster + Logic 9
