No obvious ii-V patterns detected.


Harmonic Highlights:

  • Employs a standard 12-bar blues form, using dominant 7th chords for all primary functions (I7, IV7, V7).
  • Features a direct I7-IV7 movement (Bb7-Eb7) rather than diatonic II-V-I cycles, characteristic of the blues.
  • The extended duration of the IV7 (Eb7) chord for two measures in the fifth and sixth bars provides a strong subdominant pull.

Improvisation Focus: Bb Blues Scale.

Difficulty Rating: 2 - The predictable 12-bar blues form and consistent dominant harmony make it accessible for intermediate players.
