Here's a simple study to get you started with the 'bebop' blues. I always thought of the 'Blues For Alice' changes as a rebellion against the blues. Maybe this is not accurate but it explains a couple things for me personally. When you play over the 'Blues for Alice changes' your solo shifts away from the traditional blues scale and becomes more complicated. Scales and harmonic challenges really come into play. This is what the beboper's were all about thought, right? Making things much more complicated, that is, lines, chords and rhythms. I think at this point they really made this music into an art form.
However the great thing is they didn't leave their roots. There's still a strong foundation with the past in their music. Here's a simple example. check out 'Blues for Alice' changes against a traditional blues. Notice how the form is exactly the same. It's just how they get there that's the cool part. They get to the same 'markers' as in the blues, however just in a more sophisticated way. So check it out and think of this as your intro into the bebop blues. There's a lot to tackle here and we'll tackle more of it later.
