In today's guitar lesson we learn how to play a slow minor blues with "Loan Me a Dime" by Boz Scaggs. The minor blues is important to look at, as is a slow blues. We discuss how to deal with the triplet feel over a slow tempo, as well as how to incorporate minor pentatonic scales throughout during the fills and solo.
