This is an A minor blues lick at 120bpm. The lick primarily uses the A minor blues scale, which is an A minor pentatonic scale with an added augmented fifth (D#). This lick also goes outside the A blues scale by using a major 7th (G#) over the E7 chord, which is the 3rd of the E7 chord.  The lick’s audio and the backing track are included.

    • Francesco, thank you for commenting! I agree that Milan’s lick sounds great. I also liked the G#. It gets your attention and sounds great. I’m happy to say that I have more licks and riffs coming from Milan!
