Today we are going to learn 5 different blues turnarounds in the key of C. For some reason I have always looked at blues in C on the guitar as the most folk sounding or the most blue grass sounding of the keys, primarily because o the open C7 chord shape and how it lends itself to that bouncing sound with the alternate bass. Because of this I decided to challenge myself and try and play 5 different blues turnarounds in the key of C in 5 different styles of blues. Delta, Piedmont, Texas, Chicago and Classic styles and I think it come out pretty well. Each turnarounds is different and unique with a full music theory break down in the PDF tab if you want to get one my becoming a Patreon. Remember that harmony for this is just a straight forward 12 bar blues in C with a C7, F7, and G7 chord, you can always add a quick change on the 2nd measure if you want to give the 12 bar a little more flow.
