About this lesson

▶ https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/learn-more ◀ for Andy's exclusive lessons and more! 📲 Andy Guitar APP - FREE download https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/andy-guitar-app/ Here's how to play Rock Around The Clock by Bill Hayley & his Comets from the 50s! I love the early rock n roll genre, and this is one of the songs that started it all! This song is a 12 bar blues in the key of A and has just three chords; A major, d major and E major. We will also cover how to play the 7th versions of these chords A7, D7 and E7 so add an authentic blues/ rock n roll vibe just like the original! 🎸ALL ANDY'S GUITAR COURSES https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/shop/tags/downloads 📚 ANDY'S GUITAR TUITION DVDS AND BOOKS https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/shop 📖 Andy's Recommended Songbooks https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/shop/songbooks/ 🎸Andy's Recommended guitar, amps & gear https://www.andyguitar.co.uk/shop/guitars/ Official Website http://www.andyguitar.co.uk/ Facebook https://www.facebook.com/andyguitarlessons/ Instagram https://www.instagram.com/realandyguitar/
