Excerpt:
The root of rockabilly is a strong swinging rhythmic comping.
The root of rockabilly is a strong swinging rhythmic comping.
With a swing beat, alternate between the 5th and 6th notes against the I, IV, and V chords.
This example can be applied to any key. Here we are in the key of E major.
Brian Setzer is the master of this type of swing rhythm. Listen to Rumble in Brighton, Rock this Town, and This Cat's on a Hot Tin Roof.
Now, put on your leopard skin jacket, jell up your hair in a pompadoor, and, as always, have fun.
