__________________________________________________________________________________________________ 12 bar blues. HEY! You kick it off.

A blues riff is a short musical phrase or pattern that forms the foundation of blues music. It is characterized by its expressive and soulful nature, often conveying a sense of melancholy or longing. Blues riffs typically feature a combination of specific notes, chords, and rhythmic patterns that create a distinctive sound.

At its core, a blues riff revolves around the 12-bar blues chord progression, which is a standardized structure used in many blues songs. The 12-bar blues progression consists of three chords: the I (one) chord, the IV (four) chord, and the V (five) chord. These chords provide the harmonic framework for the blues riff.

To illustrate a typical blues riff, let's consider the key of E. In this key, the I chord is E, the IV chord is A, and the V chord is B. A simple blues riff in the key of E could be constructed using the E blues scale, which consists of the following notes: E, G, A, Bb, B, and D.
