In this video I teach how to play 12-bar blues-based rock and roll/rockabilly in the key of A - a great rockin' key! * Here's a contents list (with times) so you can jump to topics if you wish to: - 12 Bar Blues in A - Version 1: 01:05 - Rockin' with open chords #1: 02:38 - 12 Bar Blues in A - Version 2: 03:47 - Rockin' with open chords #2: 04:23 - Blues Riffs: 06:15 - Rock 'n' Roll Riff #1 - A Chord Riff: 08:27 - Rock 'n' Roll Riff #2 - A Chord Riff: 10:10 - Rock 'n' Roll Riff #3 - E Chord Riff: 10:55 - Rock 'n' Roll Riff #4 - E Chord Riff: 11:53 - Rock 'n' Roll Riff #5 - D Chord Riff: 12:20 - Rock 'n' Roll Riff #6 - D Chord Riff: 13:50 - Sliding Up to the D Chord: 14:12 - Sliding Up to the A Chord: 15:21 - Rock 'n' Roll Ending Lick #1: 16:27 - Rock 'n' Roll Ending Lick #2: 17:43 - Puttin' It All Together! : 18:09 Whilst I talk about playing rock 'n' roll and rockabilly on acoustic guitar, these riffs and techniques sound great on both acoustic and electric guitar. I've recently published a chord songbook called '50 from the Fifties' ...containing 50 classic rock 'n' roll songs from the 1950s. All of the songs can be played with just 4, easy open chords! It's ideal for both beginners and experienced guitarists who want to use the techniques I teach in my tutorials on some great rockin' tunes. It contains classic hits by the likes of Little Richard, Chuck Berry, Buddy Holly, Eddie Cochran, Fats Domino, Elvis Presley, Carl Perkins, and many more. If you'd like to buy a copy then search for 'Jez Quayle Rock and Roll Songbook' on the Amazon or websites. * Here are a few of the many great rock 'n' roll/rockabilly recordings (mostly '12-bar blues' based) made in the key of A: - Blue Suede Shoes - Carl Perkins / Elvis Presley / Eddie Cochran - Boppin' the Blues - Carl Perkins - Gone Gone Gone - Carl Perkins - Lawdy Miss Clawdy - Elvis Presley - Long Tall Sally - Eddie Cochran - Looking For Someone to Love - Buddy Holly - Matchbox - Carl Perkins / The Beatles - Oh Boy! - Buddy Holly - Peggy Sue - Buddy Holly - Rock Around the Clock - Bill Haley & His Comets - Rock 'n' Roll Ruby - Warren Smith - Skinny Jim - Eddie Cochran - That'll Be The Day - Buddy Holly - That's All Right - Elvis Presley - Twenty Flight Rock - Eddie Cochran - Think It Over - Buddy Holly - Ubangi Stomp - Warren Smith - Uranium Rock - Warren Smith
