What key is the song 'The Rover' by Led Zeppelin written in?

Actually its in E major. For the solo he uses a c# minor scale which is the relative scale to the E major scale and has the same exact notes as the E major scale. have fun!


What key is sweet child of mine in?

The key is E flat minor. Or D sharp minor of you want (same thing). Much of the solo is the minor pentatonic (with a little blues note tucked in: A) scale in E flat. The chords for the verse are 7maj (C sharp major), 6maj (B major) and 3maj (F sharp major). The chorus starts with 4maj (G sharp major), and 6maj, 7maj.


What key is the back in black solo played in?

E, noodle about with the pentatonic and the minor scale, that's what a lot of the licks are based on. It's an Am pentatonic scale for the solo. Like pretty much everything else Angus Young does.


What are the conventions of blues music?

sex, drugs, rock and roll. << this is not a convention. conventions means the time singature ( in this case, rock is 4/4 timing ) the heavy solo's in the middle 8 section, the lyrics about 'sticking it to the man, politics, love, drugs etc. Although there are many different types of rock music.. funk rock, psychelic rock, heavy rock, rock and roll, blues rock.. etc, etc, Each of these styles of rock has its own different conventions, e.g. The blues has the E minor pentatonic blues scale where solo's are improved from, but still keeping the 4/4 drumming etc. hope that helped a bit.

How do you play the blues on the guitar?

If your starting out to play blues on the guitar you will need to to know what a I IV V ( 1 4 5) blues progression is. It is basically the root, fourth, and fifth of the key, when you are starting out play these as power chords. Also the first scale to know when playing blues is the minor pentatonic scale ( a lot of people say the blues scale but they are the same thing except the blues scale has a b5). Once you have learned that you can solo over the blues progression. HAVE FUN

How do you tune a guitar for blues?

you mean guitar solos, or rythmn? a solo blues guitar (the cooler kind) uses the blues scale, a modification of the pentatonic scale and LOTS of string bends. rythmn blues guitar varies, but always plays chords I,IV, V (so in the key of C: C, F, G) in variations. the most common blues progression is the 12-bar: (in C) C/C/C/C/F/F/C/C/G/F/C/C/ it uses a rock-swing rythmn.

When improvising in jazz do you only play the blues scale notes or any notes you want?

This depends on the chords of the song you are playing, and the style you wish to portray. For the most part, you will be using a different scale for each chord that you play. For now, let's keep it simple and start with the blues progression. (A progression is just the series of chords used in a song) For a blues progression, you would want to start by being able to improvise with the blues scale. What's nice about the blues scale is that all of the notes work over all of the chords in the blues progression, so you never play a wrong note. Play around with that, get comfortable phrasing your solo and building your solo, and once that becomes nice and easy, it's time for the next step. The next step is using a different scale for each chord. For a blues progression, we're going to use a "dominant scale," (but we're going to use it in three different keys.) A "dominant scale" is much like a major scale, except the seventh note is flat. So, we would get: 1 2 3 4 5 6 b7 (b = flat sign). A Bb "dominant" scale would be spelled like this: Bb C D Eb F G Ab Bb. The "A" would be natural in a major scale, but here we have flatted it because it's a dominant scale. You're going to use this scale whenever the chord is a Bb7 chord. Here is a look at a simple blues progression (there are many versions, this is the simplest): Bb7 | Bb7 | Bb7 | Bb7 Eb7 | Eb7 | Bb7 | Bb7 F7 | Eb7 | Bb7 | Bb7 But, as you can see, there are two other chords here: Eb7 and F7. When you see those, you will also play a dominant scale, but it's going to start on the root note of the chord (either Eb or F). Here is an Eb dominant scale: Eb F G Ab Bb C Db Eb. Again, the seventh scale degree is flatted from an Eb major scale, which has D natural. Only use this scale when the chord is an Eb7 chord. Here is an F dominant scale: F G A Bb C D Eb F. Again, the seventh scale degree is flatted from an F major scale, which has E natural. Only use this scale when the chord is an F7 chord. Here is a list of dominant scales, so you have a reference if you are playing in other keys: F7: F G A Bb C D Eb F Bb7: Bb C D Eb F G Ab Bb Eb7: Eb F G Ab Bb C Db Eb Ab7: Ab Bb C Db Eb F Gb Ab Db7: Db Eb F Gb Ab Bb Cb Db Gb7: Gb Ab Bb Cb Db Eb Fb Gb B7: B C# D# E F# G# A B E7: E F# G# A B C# D E A7: A B C# D E F# G A D7: D E F# G A B C D G7: G A B C D E F G C7: C D E F G A Bb C NOTE: The dominant scale is only used on a dominant chord, which just has a "7" after the note name. All of chords mentioned above are dominant chords, because they all have a "7" after the letter name. Other chords have different qualities, and thus a different scale. Here are a few formulas to apply to other chords. For simplicity, the example chords are all in C. Cmin7, C-7, Cm7 (all mean C minor): 1 2 b3 4 5 6 b7 1 (notice that a 6 is not flat, like in a natural minor scale. This is called "dorian minor") CM7, C∆7 (all mean C major): 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 1 (notice it's just a major scale, but you can also try a #4 instead of a 4) NOTE: in some styles, such as "free jazz" you can literally play any notes you want. It is recommended you learn to use these scales and master them first, and then you can experiment.
