More Blues

In this MTM I discuss theory that is not exclusive to the blues, but tonally related. I introduce a few ideas about bending - how you always want to think about bending TO a note - and a few thoughts about how “The Blues Scale” is or isn’t directly related to the Blues depending on how you use it or look at it. I also get into this bluesy idea of playing a minor pentatonic scale over the IV chord in a major key - stealing a blues concept and plopping it into a non-bluesy song. Sometimes it sounds awesome and sometimes it sounds a little too risky!
