	Hear here the guitar lick called "Looking Up" by Robert Colin mp3.com/Johnson, exactly as notated in the sheet music inside the booklet for Beyond the Blues #1 CD. The "Looking Up" guitar lick slides the melody up from the major second to the minor third to the major third, involuntarily propelling you into an uplifted mood--the magic of a universal language. As opposed to downer "minor blues", the "major blues" offers an upbeat reading as made famous by mainline bluesmen from Robert Johnson to B.B. King.

	Story Behind the Song Rise up from those depressed minor tones to meet the major blues sound of hope. An inspirational lick yields to chord melodies and bass solos, ending with a fanfare of single string guitar riffs. Lyrics Looking up, I meet your eyes. The pain once there, evaporates. Leaving the clear, clean joy of youth. Once again I feel Like a baby, just before its first smile. Never say goodbye. ˇ
