Course: Blues Bass

Stop Time Blues Rhythm

The next example introduces the stop time Blues rhythm. This rhythm has a broken up feel, i.e., the bassline is made up of short phrases divided by a short break or rest. Another variation of an 8 bar Blues progression is also applied. Note that the bassline does not begin on the first beat of the bar. This is commonly known as a lead-in.
