Blue Daze
“Blue Daze” is a twelve bar blues in the key of A. It is based on the playing of the great Scrapper Blackwell, one of the most gifted of all country blues players.

Throughout the song, the bass is mostly steady, on the down-beat. It is played by muting the strings with the palm of your picking hand so that the sound of the bass has a “deadened “ quality to it. The melody is constantly moving – weaving in and out of the chords. In the second verse the A chord riffs are based around the chord positions and played as two note and single lines
