This lick is a simple pattern using 4ths and ending with a cool blues riff straight from the George Benson bag of licks. This lick should also be played with octaves in the style of Wes Montgomery. You can try using rhythmic variation meaning play the same notes using a different rhythm. This is also a cool melodic lick that can be the springboard to a great solo or solo break so try combining it with the other minor vamp licks.

He doesn't need to slow down, you need to listen.

I love Benson licks. They sound so much like they should be in cheesy 70's porno. But in actuality Benson is the man, all jokes aside.

@vdeferens Math Class's are not necessary for catching a baseball or hitting a pitch or throwing one yet if applied to the trajectory of a ball, if we were to calculate the degree's of a swing to find the holes against certain pitches mathematically, and so on and so forth we would find numbers and math all over the place explaining that which occurs without thought... Anyone THINKING about the scales while PLAYING is slowing their capacity for intuition, character, and serendipity.
