JLTP 045: The “Kansas City” Blues Scale

Listen Later

In this episode of the Jeff Lewis Trumpet Podcast, I go over the “Kansas City” blues scale, how to use it, and how it differs from the regular blues scale.

The Blues Shuffle in Bb Concert play-along used in this podcast is available on YouTube here.

In this particular episode, you will learn;

  • What a Kansas City Blues scale is
  • 10 short phrases, or “licks”, you can play over a blues
  • How the Kansas City differs from the “regular” blues scale

    • Listen till the end, then grab your horn and play along using all of these “riffs” to create your own melodies.  Use the two blue scales and 10 “licks” provided for you with the free PDF located below.
