12 bar blues
on: April 13, 2005, 12:06:22 PM
Hi all,

Can anyone recommend me any good recordings of improvised 12 bar blues (preferably piano solo)? Or any good books about it? Or any useful hints and tips? :)
I'm doing this at uni and I want to get a bit more familiar with it because it's not the sort of thing I usually play or know very much about.

Thanks,
Jas

You wanna hear some serious blues, check out the link below of Kenny Barron:

I have some more stuff like that, but I only have 5 MB of webspace w/ my ISP so I can't post it (ugh). I'm looking into alternatives for web space so I can share things like this with friends and family. Hopefully soon.......
Thanks,
Ryan
