White Room Guitar Lesson: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=moXOwjotbNA
A few weeks back I posted a video on how to play "White Room" by Cream.
In that video I broke down a main electric guitar part through the entire song. So many of you left comments, and wrote me back about that video asking for some more soloing tips on playing over this chord progression like Eric Clapton.
So today I'm going to dive into just that for you. I'm going to show you how Clapton uses pentatonic scales, and blues scales together to get an iconic classic rock guitar solo!
Here's what we'll dive into:
-Tips on how to practice soloing over this progression with a looper
-How Clapton uses the D minor pentatonic scale and D blues scale in "White Room"
-3 Clapton style licks you can steal to jumpstart you in this style
Hope you enjoy!

????Lyrics:
In the white room with black curtains near the station
Black roof country, no gold pavements, tired starlings
Silver horses ran down moonbeams in your dark eyes
Dawn light smiles on you leaving, my contentment
I'll wait in this place where the sun never shines
Wait in this place where the shadows run from themselves
You said no strings could secure you at the station
Platform ticket, restless diesels, goodbye windows
I walked into such a sad time at the station
As I walked out, felt my own need just beginning
I'll wait in the queue when the trains come back
Lie with you where the shadows run from themselves
At the party she was kindness in the hard crowd
Consolation for the old wound now forgotten
Yellow tigers crouched in jungles in her dark eyes
She's just dressing, goodbye windows, tired starlings
I'll sleep in this place with the lonely crowd
Lie in the dark where the shadows run from themselves
