- Utilizes a traditional 12-bar blues structure centered on dominant 7th chords (I7, IV7, V7).
- Features a “Quick Change” to the subdominant (Ab7) in measure 2, providing immediate harmonic movement away from the tonic.
- Employs a standard V-IV-I cadence (Bb7-Ab7-Eb7) in the final four measures, favoring a traditional blues resolution over complex bebop ii-V-I substitutions.
Improvisation Focus Eb Blues scale (Eb, Gb, Ab, A, Bb, Db).
Difficulty Rating 1/5 (Beginner) — The repetitive structure and lack of secondary dominants or rapid modulations make it an ideal entry point for mastering basic jazz phrasing.
