dturner Posted April 27, 2002 Share Posted April 27, 2002 Hello all, I just finished mixing a blues tune called "True Blues", -- a 12 bar blues in G with drums, bass, Hammond B3, rhythm and lead guitar. I'd like to offer the backing tracks [minus the solo] with anyone who might like to download the 8.4 MB mp3 and play along. Here is a link for the for this tune -- [url=http://www.gemair.com/~dturner/truebluenosolo.mp3]BACKING TRACKS[/url] . I would only ask that this music not be used for any commercial purpose without my ok. Each of the twelve bar cycles is a little different ranging from straight I V IV structure, to the inclusion of lots of passing chords and more jazz/blues style turnarounds. If you would like to hear the full version with solo, click [url=http://www.geocities.com/sentientspirit/guitar]HERE[/url] and find the link titled "True Blue". Please feel free to add your own solo over the backing tracks and post a message with a link so we can hear you take on the solo. If anyone is interested, I will created a chord chart to detail all the chord changes. Best Regards, Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dturner Posted April 28, 2002 Author Share Posted April 28, 2002 Hi Sylver, I too am looking forward to hearing someone else's take on this tune. Dennis Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Uh Clem Posted April 28, 2002 Share Posted April 28, 2002 Really nice work Dennis - I'll take a stab at it if I can get some time soon. Steve Powell - Bull Moon Digital www.bullmoondigital.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dturner Posted April 28, 2002 Author Share Posted April 28, 2002 FYI: Here is a chord chart to go along with "True Blue" Note that each round is a little different with various passing and descending chords, and either V IV I or II V I turnarounds. If anyone reading this is new to the blues, or new to this type of a more jazz/blues set of changes, I'd be pleased to help with how and where to find scales and phrases that will work over these changes.

Wrave Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Bump! I thought this was one of the most useful "learning" chains I have read and since I wanted to re-read it, I thought someone else might find it useful too. =-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-= ME: "Nobody knows the troubles I've seen!"

Wewus432 Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Yeah I really liked what dturner did there, very nice tracks. I had a solo I was working on but was never happy with it. Somebody should do something else like this. It's cool to have the interactive SSS. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sylver Posted December 2, 2002 Share Posted December 2, 2002 Yeah, there were some great efforts that people came up with for this(I think it was on the Guitar forum). The original poster seems to have flown the coop, though. I really don't know what to put here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pauldil Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 I swear, I was just in my car thinking about Dennis and what cool threads he had started. I got home, signed on and saw this! For a minute I thought Dennis was back. When I first started coming to this forum, he had a Johnny Smith thread and I actually learned an entire JS chord melody out of it! I also participated in the blues thread on the guitar forum. Wrave & sylver did too, if I remember correctly. You're right wewus, we should have a more interactive forum :thu: .

Sylver Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 Yeah, I wonder what happened. I hope he's ok. I really don't know what to put here. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MattC Posted December 3, 2002 Share Posted December 3, 2002 I don't want to ask too much, but might there be a version floating around without the bass? I'd be very interested to jam along to such a version... ...think funky thoughts... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
