It is played very slowly and freely, with Vaughan alternating between jazz-inflected chords and solo runs. The main chord featured in the song is a movable major 6th chord to which Vaughan applies moderate vibrato with the tremolo bar. The solos incorporate the E major scale, the E minor pentatonic scale, and the E Minor blues scale.
Dominant 7th chords are generally used throughout a blues progression. The addition of dominant 7th chords as well as the inclusion of other types of 7th chords (i.e. minor and diminished 7ths) are often used just before a change, and more changes can be added. A more complicated example might look like this, where "7" indicates a seventh chord:

"Freddie Freeloader" is a composition by Miles Davis and is the second track on his 1959 album Kind of Blue. The piece takes the form of a twelve-bar blues in B ♭, but the chord over the final two bars of each chorus is an A ♭ 7, not the traditional B ♭ 7 followed by either F7 for a turnaround or some variation of B ♭ 7 for an ending.
It is a twelve-bar blues in 6 8; the chord sequence is that of a basic blues and made up entirely of seventh chords, with a ♭ VI in the turnaround instead of just the usual V chord. In the composition's original key of G this chord is an E ♭ 7. "All Blues" is an example of modal blues in G Mixolydian. [2] [clarification needed]
"St. James Infirmary" on tenor sax "St. James Infirmary" is an American blues and jazz standard that emerged, like many others, from folk traditions. Louis Armstrong brought the song to lasting fame through his 1928 recording, on which Don Redman is named as composer; later releases credit "Joe Primrose", a pseudonym used by musician manager, music promoter and publisher Irving Mills.

The move to the IV chord usually happens at bar 3 (as opposed to 5 in twelve bar); however, "the I chord moving to the V chord right away, in the second measure, is a characteristic of the eight-bar blues." [1] In the following examples each box represents a 'bar' of music (the specific time signature is not relevant).
A signature song is the one song (or, in some cases, one of a few songs) that a popular and well-established recording artist or band is most closely identified with or best known for. This is generally differentiated from a one-hit wonder in that the artist usually has had success with other songs as well.
