| December 10, 2008Hello there,
I really liked your video but could you send me a list of vamp progressions for all other keys besides C,G, and D. I’m having trouble figuring the other ones out. If you could do that I’d really appreciate, my theory isn’t very good! Thank you, Daniel Fairman

If you want to figure out the vamp progression in any key, keep a circle of fifths handy, such as this one:
http://randscullard.com/CircleOfFifths/
Find any key, move two steps clockwise and play that chord as a 7-chord, then the one next to it (counter-clockwise) as a 7-chord, and move a final step counter-clockwise back to where you started, and play that as a major triad. So for the key of C it’s D7 > G7 > C, for the key of G it is A7 > D7 > G and so on.
