Rocker, Chorus 8-End (ABC) by Little Walter

As you start to go into the 8th Chorus and to the end of the song, there’s not much to bring up that you haven’t already encountered earlier in the song, but a couple of notes are in order. The shakes used in the 9th Chorus are fast. Practice playing 3 draw/4 draw shakes in a quarter note rhythm. Place a dip on the start of each shake, which should start with the 4 draw. In almost all cases when performing a shake you’ll start with the bottom note (4 draw). The slight bend in the shake over the IV chord will take some time to play at proper pitch. The 10th Chorus will challenge your rhythmic breathing skills. Make sure to play with the original track slowed down (the “Amazing Slowdowner” is a great program for this www.ronimusic.com) to ensure that you’re catching everything that Walter plays. There is also a lesson at www.bluesharmonica.com on how to use the Amazing Slowdowner.
