[Harp-L] Blues Grooves



Harp-L'ers

I've been thinking about blues grooves. Knowing them is essential when sitting in with a "strange" rhythm section.  Here are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.  Feel free to add, change, disagree, delete and offer explanations for how each works. Examples of each groove would be great as well.  At some point, I'll compile the results and post it on the SPAH web site.
