Funk Riff in A with Flat 7

Here’s an easy riff in A, with a flat 7. Watch the video, and pay special attention to which notes are used. Then, learn the notes in order, but not in time. Next, play along with the slow version, until you’ve got it down. Remember to increase tempo slowly so that you maintain perfect accuracy. Finally, you can play along with the regular tempo version.

In the video, I demonstrate the video at normal tempo. Then I show you the notes, one at a time, followed by demos at several speeds, starting with the slowest tempo and returning to normal speed. Finally, I show you some variations so you can see some of things you can do with the riff.

Watch on You Tube

Remember that it’s important to learn the notes first. Don’t allow yourself to slop through it, or you’ll end up making mistakes for a very long time before you actually get it down. If you are patient with yourself, you’ll find that you are able to play it correctly in less time than if you try to rush things.
