Eric Clapton * Cream * Strange Brew

This classic rock hit demonstrates the use of a song
that is composed of a 3 chord progression that is played 
in the key of A. The construction of a 3 chord blues song
is derived from intervals 1,4 and 5 taken from the major 
diatonic scale, which in the key of A major = A,D,E. The
guitar solo is based upon A pentatonic minor box scale 
and ascending run with 3rd finger slide in combination 
with A mixoblues which is the blues scale with the addition 
of the major 3rd interval.
