Can any of you fine folks suggest any songs / solos that are strictly using A-Minor Pentatonic? I'm trying to hammer this into my brain before I move on, and I'm thinking playing something familiar would go a long way in keeping it there.

 

 

Pre-Thanks!

I think you'll find this thread handy, particularly the first video. I also found another video I can add to the thread the other day and will post it soon.

 

Edit: Have now added it. The first one and the last one are the two most important imo

Those are real good lessons - but I'm looking for a song that I know, that I can learn my first solos on. 

There's lots of 'em!

 

Off the top of my head:

 

-Carry On Wayward Son

 

-Smooth

 

-Heartbreaker (Zeppelin)

 

-Stairway To Heaven

 

-Satch Boogie
