Blues Progression
The blues prgression or 1 4 5 progression, was, as the name would suggest, popularized by blues artists in the late 50's to early 60's, and has been a staple in American music in particular ever since. This chord progression often uses chords with a dominant 7th, which makes for a "bluesy-er" sound. It has been used by musicians like Led Zeppelin, the Who, Ray Charles, Meghan Trainor, and many others.
