Intro to Blues - turnarounds

In Part 3 of Intro to the Blues, Neil mentions that he will discuss "turnarounds" in greater detail later on. I went through all the lessons and he only touched on it briefly. Are there lessons on turnarounds somewhere else on the site?

Hi, if you surf the net you find a lot of explains on turnarounds, often played in the last two measers of the 12 bar blues and returns to chord one , there is a lot of blues played in the key of E ( the blues key I think), interesting is that the famous bluesman had there signature turnarounds,,

maybe "key to the highway" is fun for searching the net (covers) and look how they did it (this tune is a 8 bar blues)

Thanks, Willem. Appreciate the advice. I am very familiar with turnarounds and their use. I was really looking for Neil's take on it and how he teaches them. He specifically mentions that he will go into it in greater detail and I'm not sure if it's on the site but I just can't find it. Or maybe he never got around to it.

Interesting question.
It would be great if Neil were to elaborate on Turnarounds in detail.
I don't remember of any lessons that Neil has uploaded, specifically on turnarounds. :dry:

The fact that he said he'd go into more detail would suggest he had something in mind.
Hopefully this topic brings it back to his attention.

Hi there,

No need to tag me and I have seen this thread. I will address on the next update and am considering a more detailed lesson soon. Thanks for bringing this up!
