Stealer's Wheel's Stuck in the Middle has a great bass groove. Here I go beyond just playing it but make a fun and challenging drill out of it!

This is an awesome Groove!

[🎵🎵🎵 Ari playing the groove 🎵🎵🎵 ]

What does this groove do? 1 - 1 - 2 - 3 - 5 - 6 -1- 1 - 7 - 2 - 3 - 5 - 6 - 5.

It goes back and forth between the regular major pentatonic and the dominant pentatonic [ 🎵🎵🎵 ]. You can also look at it as a dominant seven chord plus the 2 [ 🎵🎵🎵 ].

Play this groove from the song through the cycle of fifths to the left trying to stay in one area:
