A phrase that uses nothing but the minor 3rd interval played up and down repeatedly. Eric Clapton used this on one his songs with Cream. I'm sure Muddie Waters and other blues guys have used this to death. I don't have time to research it this afternoon. If anyone recognizes this, your task is to identify places where this blues cliche has been used on recordings. To be used as an instructional example on Blues, Thunder, and Beauty.
