Hey cats and chicks, grab the hair gel as we go all rockabilly for today’s 3 Chord Club as we learn three great songs from Gene Vincent and his Blue Caps featuring Cliff Gallup .
At the 3 Chord Club we choose three songs from a specific artist, label or genre of music that we’ll learn by ear. All the songs will contain three chords or less (with the exception of Bonus Chord songs)! Since you know the song has only one to three chords, try to figure out the changes, or chord progression by ear while watching the YouTube video. Here’s a hint, most of the time the chords will be the I-IV & V or V7 chords. In the Key of C, that’s C-F-G or G7. Remember, the sound examples may be in various keys. As an added bonus, try to figure out the key of the recording.
Be Bop A Lula
(Hint: Blues)
Blue Jean Bop
(Hint: I-IV-I etc. in verses )
Race With The Devil
(Hint: Blues)
Songs presented are for educational purposes only and used under the fair use doctrine of United States copyright law.
