Nothing says “Texas Blues” like SRV. For this lick we blend SRV’s hard-edged blues with Reggie Young’s (and Cornell Dupree’s) R&B style double stops to create one funky little lick you can use over this chord progression.

Here’s the TAB: https://www.dropbox.com/s/tjaxui1goanj4ei/Funky%20Texas%20Blues%20Lick.pdf?dl=0
