TOPIC: Call and Response

Call and Response 8 years 7 months ago #8370

In tonight's class we improvised a call & response lead. It was fairly simple, but used a slide, target notes, and swing-8ths to make it sound really good. Call & Response is where the 1st phrase sounds unfinished, and then the 2nd phrase completes the thought. For example, in the song Stormy Monday (BB King) "they call it stormy Monday" is the call...... and "but Tuesday's just as bad" is the response (check youtube video). The phrasing of your lead can be arranged to sound like this call & response.

Task for this week is to come up with a call & response lead and then show it off in the next blues class.
