Classic SRV

From: Corey Congilio's Texas Blues Licks Vol. 1

Blues players would almost always play minor pentatonic over major sounding songs. Doing so helps to create emotional contrast and tug at the heartstrings, something every great blues anthem should aim to do. Stevie does this in the tune 'Lenny'. This lick is based out of the E minor pentatonic scale, and includes some great slides and bends for you to get down with. Check it out!
