Some ideas for turnarounds

http://bit.ly/billsbook

I've been asked how to turn around a 1 - 4 - 5 sequence, so in this tutorial I look at some constructions you can use as turnarounds in a couple of contexts where you might find a 1 - 4 - 5 progression - namely, the blues and country/folk/pop piano.

In general, turnarounds are very simple, and just rely on briefly returning to the 5 chord to signal the start of a new section. They are most useful in songs with simple structures, such as 12 bar blues, where you can't rely on a verse-chorus-bridge pattern to tell the listener that the progression is starting again.
