This lick comes from Louis Armstrong’s “Hesitating Blues.” I’ve pulled it into the key of G for fiddlers and broken it down so you can play it with me. Louis doesn’t exactly add the low D♯, but you hear that sound in bar 4 of the blues—when the progression moves from the I chord to a dominant III and into the minor vi instead of the usual V7. I outline it on the fiddle for a subtle ♯5 color, and honestly… it just feels good under the fingers. Hope you enjoy this one—and more than anything, I hop
