All Your Love

Intro

This song is unquestionably a blues, but it has an interesting 7 bar intro which is quite uncommon, and may take a bit of work to get comfortable! It's based around a riff in B, and we do switch between minor and dominant sounding chords throughout. The riff is certainly based around a B minor, but it's worth keeping in mind that we're technically be jumping around different keys with the dominant chords, or, even better, think of this as a tune in the key of B Blues!

The riff takes its notes from B minor blues box 1, but with some nice additions of trills. Here is the shape for you to work with:

After that riff into we go into a lead break that's all based around B minor pentatonic box 1. This is something you could learn note for note, but it's certainly an improvised part so we recommend taking some inspiration from this section, including the five picked notes on the bend, and then making it your own. It's all about attitude here! If you do want to learn it note for note please follow the video and listen to the track as much as possible. It's all within that box 1 framework here:

After the lead section we play through the riff twice before the vocals come in along with the 12 bar blues form.

12 Bar Blues

Once the vocals start we're into a standard 12 bar blues but all based around that riff on the I. Otherwise, we're in a standard I IV V style 12 bar blues progression with these chords: I = Bm (this is the riff), IV = E9, V = F#9. Here's that structure:

Pre solo riff

For this little riff that plays before the solo we're once again in that box 1 B minor pentatonic, using some slides and double stops. then going up into box 2. A double stop is where you play two notes at the same time and is very very common in blues and rock styles, so get used to it!
