The Blues Brothers - 'Peter Gunn' Theme

• This music was famously used in the film 'The Blues Brothers' but originally comes from a television series, of the same name, from the early 1960's

• It consists of a bass line and a solo (Brass) line. Let's look at the bass line first...

• Next, the solo (Brass) line...a little trickier this one!

• Now! What you need is a friend! If one of you can play the Bass line...then you could play the solo line over the top!

• In case you can't find any willing friends, try playing over the top of the backing track below!

• You can choose whether to play the bass line - come in after the first, four cymbal crashes...

• Or play the solo (Brass) line - come in after the second, four cymbal crashes.

• Play the whole thing twice and ENJOY!

If you have some more friends perhaps they could simply play a chord of Em, twice to match the start of the bass line, and repeat this for an easy alternative accompaniment?
