Some of Eric Clapton’s most famous licks. Clapton Licks Some of Eric Clapton’s most famous licks.

Will do 2 or 3 per night At this point will stress the blues and early licks. Watch out for timing as that makes it or breaks it.

Lick #1 Classic Lick in G7 but learn in all keys. Note the use of a chord at the end. Rhythm of the last measure is the “Charleston”, one of the most common rhythmic figures in Jazz, Rock and Blues, even used quite a bit in country. Played totally in the 3rd position. Learn on other keys up and down the neck.

G7 chord in 3rd position but only playing the 1st 4 strings. Count 1 2 3 & 4 e & 1 e & 2 4 4 Pull off 5 to 3 The 1st 5 is a grace note G7 chord in 3rd position but only playing the 1st 4 strings. This lick is in the G blues scale. Note that the 1/16th note to 1/8th note lick in the first measure could be a bend release of slide up and down.

Notice this rhythmic figure. 1st note is grace note. Either bend and release this or slide. Either case it is with the ring finger. Here Clapton is using the blues scale – 4 to b5 back to 4 to b3.

Pull off the first note. Note same basic rhythmic figure Pull off the first note. Note same basic rhythmic figure. Next notes are all in the blues scale b3, 1 and b7. Really take your time to learn this then try in other keys.

G7 chord in 3rd position but only playing the 1st 4 strings. Count 1 2 3 & 4 e & 1 e & 2 4 4 Pull off 5 to 3 The 1st 5 is a grace note G7 chord in 3rd position but only playing the 1st 4 strings. This lick is in the G blues scale. Note that the 1/16th note to 1/8th note lick in the first measure could be a bend release of slide up and down.

See how easy it is to move to A. Just up 2 frets. Do also in F, C and D!!

Another Good Lick – Good turnaround in E

These will be needed for the next riff.

Turnaround A turnaround is a devise to turn the tune around and get back to the beginning. Many in blues. Most famous is the Robert Johnson Dominant Diminished. Time permitting we will do some of those.

Start in 3rd position then ½ way through slide with the middle finger from the 4th fret to the 2nd fret and you will be in 1st position. Count 1 2 & a 3 & a 4 & a 1 2 ( & 3 ) 4
