about

Key: A (MINOR BLUES)
Chords: Am6 - Dm6 - E7(b9,#9)

This track was inspired by I Want You (She's So Heavy) by the Beatles. It's based on 3 harmonies: I IV and V in A (that's why it's a blues!). The weird part is the timing, so listen closely for the changes. Unfortunately, you really can't get away with just one scale for this whole thing, you should actually play in 3 keys: A minor blues or Dorian (except that little aeolian part at the end), D minor blues or Dorian, and E whatever-the-hell-you-want (start with E minor blues or E Phrygian major [aka A harmonic minor from the 5th degree]). Let your ear be your guide! The key changes are fairly obvious, it's the timing that's wack. Good luck and SHRED ON brothers and sisters!
