Blues Backing Track in E Minor Pentatonic

[jagarn137]

i dont really understand all the hate... i had fun jamming to this.

also, when you're jamming with someone for real, truth is, it's not always gonna sound perfect, so i guess it can't hurt to use BTs like this now and then...

[mixalisKING]

iiiittt sssssssoooooooouuuuuuuunnnnnnn­ddddddddssssssss sssssssooooooooo ssssssllllllooowwww ......

[spicecrop]

Fuck Robert Johnson. Sucking the Devil's dick just to get good on guitar. Get good on your own and fuck Satan.

[eagleeye2391]

@spicecrop wow u should go smack urself for believing in that shit

[esquach]

anyone can hit the dislike button or leave a jerk comment, thanks for actually contributing something to the world

[spicecrop]

@esquach Get bent looser. just kidding

[TheSchlampampe]

very amateur, just like my soloing :)

[lookylooky2006]

good 

[jesusbautistacid]

its okay, just bad mic and no constant tempo.

[Apalachee207]

be nice ..jerks keep moving on

[lemswaiter]

This is very helpful - like baby bear - not too hot or too cold - just right. Thanks man! you should do some more.

[sickmaninthebox]

jesus why did you put this on youtube?

[FullJeshus]

SHOW DE BOLA!

[homq3361]

watch?v=8mH02di2FZc

Thanks again i hope you dontmind i played along....

[homq3361]

Jammed. Thanks.

This is in E Major. It is common practice in blues to play the minor third over the major chord, this doesn't make it Eminor. A minor scale has a flat sixth and usually a flat seventh too. It must also have a perfect fifth. 1 f3 p5 is the minor harmonic triad.

[Queenannsrvnge9]

idk what everyones complaining about i had fun improving over it

[MrRiffNinja]

thanks man... enjoyed jamming to it :)

the ones calling you an amateur... know nothing bout music ;)

dont sweat it.. they just be trolling you cause they suck too much to jam over this ;)

thanks again!

[wernerkonings]

Man, someone who get's the blues should be able to jam good at this. Blues is about intention. I like this backing track cos its simple, not dominant and cos it's got the blues. Backing tracks who fit exactly with the rythm of a metronome suck. When playing with real players you also gotta mind other ppl's rythm, so this is a good exercise.

Don't forget, blues is about intention, not about perfection.

So give this guy some more likes, cos he deserves it.

[ZephyrOrDie]

@wernerkonings So true. These kids need to appreciate what they have and this is great. It was raw enough for me to feel some soul. I was able to push up those bends and release those blues

[wernerkonings]

@ZephyrOrDie Then you feel the blues!

[TheMUSEism]

Cps yeah the blues is sooo about being totally fucking accurate. Losers. This is probably one of the best i've jammed to.

[MysticMan150]

i can play this riff since i have a guitar...

[darkmachete]

I thought it was alright. Recording isn't that great but who cares? Even Clapton had some songs that were poorly recorded. Blues is just that style that can be poorly recorded. And this was pretty good I thought. People have such high standards today no?

[RudeGoldberg]

This is in E MAJOR, not minor

[TheSuperiorJam]

@RudeGoldberg try playing the e major scale over this and see if you still think that...

[RudeGoldberg]

@TheSuperiorJam The chords here are E A7 B7, you can hear it. Play blues scale or pentatonic in E and it'll work

[TheSuperiorJam]

@RudeGoldberg the blues scale is not a major scale, neither is the first postition of the pentatonic scale, i only commented because i don't want you to confuse people jamming over the track into playing in e major... although the first set of chords he plays do have a major sound because of the natural 6 in the second chord but they don't actually have a third soooo its neutral if anthing ... just don't try to play in e major kids....

[RudeGoldberg]

@TheSuperiorJam Yup you are very correct. I just meant to say this was not a minor blues cycle.

[CastleOnFire]

i liked ;)

[boozooist]

LISTENING TO IT AT LEST HE KNOWS WHAT 12 BAR IT JUST NEEDS TO BE A BIT TIGHTER

[Puregeniuscomedy]

BOO YOU STINK - spongebob reference

[Danny980223]

Good but not great but still pretty nice my LP sure liked it

[Pignapoleon]

great jam! some people forget it, but this is what the original blues sounded like.

[jca3746]

I actually liked this. I mean, it felt like he was in the same room and I felt this sort of connection that allowed me to play and it felt natural. Great job

[theloathingsuns]

Lol:) sorry thay was my friend

[Guitarman1275]

@theloathingsuns i love his enthusiasm and also understanding this was 2 years ago when i sucked lol :)

[theloathingsuns]

dont you ever do this again you pieceof shit

[Guitarman1275]

@theloathingsuns i love you too :)

[MrRiffNinja]

@theloathingsuns wtf man? o_o i loved jamming to this...

[jcwilky]

:)  thnx 4 sharing this :)

[amicus87]

seriously ppl, every second backing track which should be minor is major ... learn the difference!

this is MAJOR key ... and yeah it sucks

[tubatag]

cool man,  keep up the good work

[AchillesWar]

[OrangeBuddxBE]

Good start, but try to play a little more with a metronome. Its hard to jam when its not 100% straight. Espacialy on you tube ;)

Good luck!

[amitguitar96]

sorry but thats very amateur

[Guitarman1275]

@amitguitar96 a couple of things. I'm wayyyy better now this was more than a year ago.

second this is 12 bar. since when is the rhythm guitarist supposed to go nuts and shred?

[amitguitar96]

@Guitarman1275 shit man i'm sorry as soon as i sent that note i cancelled but obviously it didn't. dude this is blues.... that's what real black blues sounds like.. rough and not timed.. not that im saying that's what it is. anyways im sorry man this awesome

[Guitarman1275]

@amitguitar96 nah dont worry dude. It's cool.

[petjeharp]

@amitguitar96

And if yourself would be a profi you would not be sitting in front of your computer listening to other people playing a 12 bar blues. you would be playing yourself in front of large crowds..... For me as AMATEUR blues harp player it works very well to practice my licks and riffs.

Keep 'm coming Guitarman1275!

[amitguitar96]

@petjeharp i was listening to it to so i can practice my impro, i do play in front of crowd just so you know...

just nvm its good

[BellXlleb]

@petjeharp Yeah, it's perfect for beginner blues harpists! Most backing tracks are too fast for me; I've only been playing for a few weeks.

[timbov123]

@amitguitar96 We all have to start somewhere. And no matter how well YOU think you play, unless someone pays you and you make a living playing music, you are also an amateur.

[jcwilky]

sweet thnx 4 pstn...:)

[OfficialToxicStrum]

Dude thanks. Ive been looking for someone to play a Rythm for me but no one seemed to be available. So thanks! Everytime i need a rythm for E minor. Ill turn to this. :P

BTW Us 13 year olds are being underestimated.

[jcwilky]

[lemswaiter]
