subject: Playing Through The Blues Review [print this page] Do you know what I have to show for all of my trips to the local music stores and all of my searches through cyberspace? Nothing!
I could not find one single book with an actual system for playing through the blues. Sure, there are hundreds of books full of blues licks, but how does that help in the long run?
You don't need 800 different licks, what you need are the best blues guitar licks and a practical, effective way to use them.
This system has been tested on hundreds of students over the years and it works, I guarantee it!
Playing Through the Blues - A Guide for the Lead Guitar Player is so much more than just a book full of blues scales and licks.
Rather than just fill pages, I've done what I do for all of my students and cut right to the heart of what you need to know.
Inside the book you'll find all of the scales and fingering patterns that you'll ever need, all of the necessary blues licks, tricks, and techniques, and complete blues solos in the styles of your blues guitar heroes. Each of these solos demonstrate the techniques and approaches for crafting those perfect blues solos. You'll love learning these because they are real solos over real blues.
The best way to learn is by doing! For that very reason, there are audio examples for every single example in the book. Most of them even include one example at slow speed so you can really get it down, then another example at full speed.
This is a powerful program laid out in an easy to use, step-by-step format. And, you get to move through the course at your pace, not mine. You don't have to show up to my studio at any predetermined time. You get to set your pace, and you get to learn the blues when you want to.
