Blues turnarounds are just plain fun to play and you should definitely have a few in your back pocket.
In this lesson, we're going to zoom out a bit and take a look at 4 types of blues turnarounds that you can hear over and over again in the Blues.
Cool thing is that the basic turnarounds in these categories can serve as a launching pad for your own unique ideas. In the video, we'll embellish a couple of the basic ideas to have some fun with things.
Now, this doesn't mean that these are the ONLY types of turnarounds. If you stumble on one that doesn't fit in these 4 categories, leave a comment and let's collect a cool basket of turnarounds.
Have fun!

Great lesson. I particularly like the, clear and concise music theory background too. You’re a good teacher. Teaching the whole concept not just the “tabs.”
Thanks, Roger! Glad it was helpful. Have a great day!!
Me too. I have listened to your lesson several times so that the fathomless rules you talking about become true with my Yamaha. Thanks a lot for your kind efforts !!
Thanks, John. That was a very helpful lesson Keep up the great work. Much appreciated!!
Thank you, William! Really appreciate the comment and glad to know it's helpful to you. Play On!
very useful playing. Most blues guys know probably 2 or 3 of these turn arounds, I like how you showed the ones that included the bass notes to them.
Thanks for the comment, Tyler. I really enjoy playing the ones that have movement in the bass too. Cheers!
That’s a sweet axe - great tone and intonation 👍🏼
already listened 10 times john, great lesson!
Applied this to the piano,thx!. Been playing for years, but this is how you pick up new little ingredients...
These are some amazing turn arounds.. i need to learn these..
You are a gifted teacher. Concise, with just enough theory to help, but not so much that heads go muddy. Keep it up brother.
I appreciate that! Many thanks, Robert!
Watching this on my lunch break and now I can’t wait until my shift is over to play some haha. Thanks for the lesson
John you're a great instructor. Thank you, sir, for your great work and your sharing! Awesome.
Nice lesson! Dig the acoustic blues style!
very elegant articulation of many abstract, but essential concepts. very nice work.
Simply brilliant.
Hi John, I have listened to this lesson several times and I really enjoyed you. I am still having trouble but I just keep practicing over&over. Thanks much for your teaching.
It is a great lesson and promise if you stay at it, you will most certainly see it "all come together". I've been playing for 31 years and Stevie Ray's "Pride and Joy" for over 20 of it and once I learned the exact notes of the turn around, just played it repeatedly until it became something as easy and automatic as any tool you need "right off the shelf".
Very cool turn arounds, they make blues a lot of fun.
That was freaking awesome! WOW, thank you!
Perfect quick lesson, man. Not too slow. Thanks.
Sounds absolutely worthwhile!
Thanks so much,John! Great lesson!!
John, this is an excellent lesson. It cleared up a lot of confusion for me regarding the theory of the turnaround. Many thanks
Glad it was helpful!
That guitar sounds killer. And great lesson. Thanks.
I think you’re a great teacher as well as player! Thanks, man!
Thank you! Really happy to have you out there learning along David! Cheers!
Excellent lesson, I really enjoyed it. Thank you!
Great teacher I've been watching for a couple weeks now and learned a lot
Thank you John. Well done and you made it easy to understand.

Who knew Bill Paxton was such a darn good guitarist!! Seriously though, great lesson, thank you
Bravo,je suis francophone au Québec. Vous êtes un excellent pédagogue, calme, voix chaleureuse, diction parfaite. J'apprends beaucoup avec vous. Tout est simple sans être simplet.Merci pour votre travail 🙏👍🙋
Thx for your very good lessons. I am working on it. Oegstgeest Holland
Thanks, Mary!
I remember when this guy used to chase tornados with Hellen Hunt.
brigs1370 good one! I saw the resemblance as soon as I read your comment! Good laughs!
Rip
Game over man!! Game over!!
Tom Cruise's Meaningless character : "Master Sergeant Farell, you're an American?"
Bill fucking Paxton's epic reply : "Y no, sir. I'm from Kentucky."
brigs1370: How could Bill Paxton have recently come out with a guitar tutorial when he's been dead for almost two years? And it's Helen Hunt by the way.
Great lesson!
Thanks, I see hours of new stuff to work on here, I love learning and I’m 58... great teaching style, pay no attention to the haters, they are jealous.

Having that Vision of being a Teacher/Guitar especially is a BIG ROLE to take on! Much bigger and more important than most people think! You are the FIRST person I could actually sit with and watch and learn because you make it OBVIOUS that YOU REALLY want us to learn this in a NICE and EASY, COMFORTABLE and most of all, ACCESSIBLE way! You are a GREAT TEACHER! I have NO reason to say that other than it's TRUE! I REALLY wish I could get some individualized learning from you! I play by ear and I'm damn damn good, not to brag, but most people see that and hear that when someone plays by ear and they are blown away BUT I DON'T EVEN KNOW ONE ACTUAL CHORD, YET I PLAY OVER 60 CHORDS PROBABLY! I MAY HAVE INVENTED THEM ALL, I don't even know! I did it out of NECCESSITY and DESIRE. Passion for LEARNING but having NO TEACHER that could help me really! Wow. You're GOOD! REALLY REALLY GOOD! This is your CALLING! Thanks for putting your life and your heart into this! It's REALLY VERY IMPORTANT! Don't Go AWAY!!!!
Thanks, Joseph! That's really kind of you and I dig your enthusiasm. Now you got me curious if you did invent any chords 😎
Hey bro, thanks for the lesson, Greetings from Tanzania East Africa
Brilliant !
Excellent lesson and info.
Brilliant video, thank you so so much! ⭐️
Thank you, Paul!
Merci pour ces bons plans !
Descending! Thanks!!
Merci! Ce n'est pas un gros montant, mais je tenais à vous signifier que vos enseignements compte beaucoup pour moi. J'invite tous les utilisateurs de cette chaîne à donner au moins un petit montant. Merci et bravo 🙏👍🙋
Wow thank you so much, I really appreciate that!!
Thank you. Quick and easy. Cheers, maha.
You're welcome!
Good stuff. I will play these until I can do it in my sleep. Take a look at SRV's Rude Mood turn around. It's super cool.
Cool video. Thanks.
Good stuff! Thank you
I like the last turnaround. Bert Jansch uses it in "Come Back baby". He never considered himself a blues player, but he plays better than most.
Or, I should say a similar turnaround.
Great lesson. Thank you. I know turnarounds, but getting the classes or types is extremely helpful.
Glad it was helpful! Cheers, Paul!
Thank You!
👏👏👏👏👏
This is the best video I've found to explain turnarounds great mate Thankyou 👍👍
Awesome, thank you! Glad it helped Cheers!
Great turnarounds! Nice instruction. 🎸🔥
Glad you liked it! Thanks, Tim!
I dig the last one, nice. I just learned the sweetest turn around in e. Digging your lessons
Awesome! Thank you!
You are a great teacher.
Love Robert Lockwood Jr. Black Spider Blues Turnaround. It's haunting.
Very cool lesson:)!
LUV this THANKS again!!
Hey again, Greg! Thanks for the comment and really glad to hear you dig this buddy!
Hubert Sumlin had a signature turnaround lick he used a lot. Listen for it in his solo in Howling Wolf’s 300 Pounds of Heavenly Joy. Love it!
Very cool video. Terminology on point and very helpful.
Glad it was helpful, thanks Kyle!
Excellent explanation. Thank you.
Thank you, Daniel! Appreciate you watching and commenting. Play On!
Great teaching
great lesson, well explained
Glad you liked it!
Sounds great. Thanks. Examples went quickly for slow learners (like me). I'll try working on this.
Sublime stuff John 🙅♂️
Thanks, James! Hope all's well with you my friend. Cheers!
This is awesome,
Excelent informative and helful. Tx super teacher.🎸
super stuff, thx!
How are you not the greatest blues teacher on UA-cam?
Lol
Great thanks
I have an old LP of Mr. Johnson, but it took me decades to realise how good he was. Some familiar sounds in this very clear and well-done tutorial. I seem to do better watching fingers and listening than interpreting tabs or (shudder) all those little golf clubs. :-) Guess I'll have another go at it now.
Thanks and I agree. I didn't realize how difficult his style is until I really listened. Very nuanced playing and that, to me, is part of the magic. Cheers!
Realy nice !
Thanks from Mont-Tremblant Québec...
Thank you, Bruno! Cheers!
yyepper, like the way you communicate ! "That's rare in this industry!"
Thank you. The descending G7, C, E flat7, D7, G cool!
great lessons
Awesome
Thanks!
What a beautiful guitar! And message!
great youtube rec!
Man, what a great sounding guitar!
Helpful , thank you!
Great! Thanks for the comment!
love that Larrivee
Thank you! It's been my #1 from the moment we met :)
Love all these turn-a-rounds. The one that has that funny word to describe it,..you know with the ascending and descending lines, I seem to want to play a C9 down to a B9 but finger picked but only with the inner 4 strings. I think it sounds real nice. (Would that be a 5 1/2 chord to the 5 chord? Lol Thanks again! You’ve given me some much needed spark!
I just come across this gent. Thanks.. I'll try this out with some other things I've been enjoying. I did subscribe and we'll see.. good approach.
Thanks, David!
Great practical lesson also contrary motion is what going up in bass and down in treble and
vice versa is called.
Or counterpoint, you know like what musicians who have gone to places like Berklee & Juliard call it... 😒
Thank you
This is a cool lesson and for some reason I have an added incentive to keep playing it, thanks😊
You can hear most of these in Eric Clapton's unplugged album. I recognized a lot of these turnarounds!
I thought the exact same thing. I learned all the songs on unplugged and I think he literally just took those turnarounds and made a video
My thoughts exactly
He heard them from Robert Johnson recordings, but they didn't belong to RJ either !
@@MadMarvelTPresents Nope. For all the hype, Clapton plays standard stuff.
Thankyou for this video. Very nice.
But as a recommendation
Will be good to ADD the Tabs here in the video!!!
Thank you, greate video :)
Glad you liked it. Thanks for watching!
What a great video- useful and so very easy to understand. I appreciate your skills as a teacher of guitar. In addition, what a great sounding guitar. Would love to hear more about the guitar. Thank you for the video.
that guitar sounds really good \m/
great lesson too!
Thanks Kowboy Santos! Love my Larrivee and really happy you enjoyed the lesson! Cheers!
@@BluesGuitarInstitute absolutely! \m/
I can't help but think, if poor old Robert Johnson had access to your UA-cam videos, he wouldn't have had to sell his soul...
Thanks for another great lesson.
Your guitar sounds so clear and so crisp! I can even smell the scent of the wood! Thanks a bunch for the lesson. 🍺⭐💯
Thanks and glad you like it! Cheers!
