The Johnny Moore's Three Blazers - Sunny Road (1946)
Interesting guitar solo by Johnny Moore with the legendary no-drums trio featuring Charles Brown on vocals, classic vintage West Coast R&B at his finest. In the key of D, mostly 1st position on the guitar but with some a little fancier chords than usual (DM7, A+). Transcription by Jay Bee Rodríguez, first published on SOLO BLUES magazine (1991).
"Sunny Road", guitar solo in D
"Sunny Road" by The Johnny Moore's Three Blazers (full)
An small collection of classic Blues Bass Lines, from piano boogie to electric rhumba-blues, from Lightnin' Hopkins to Ray Charles and more. On the transcriptions I used just one key (E) on paper, but of course would be a more than good exercice to play most or all examples on the particular different recordings' keys to begin with. Very recomended!
