A MUST HAVE!!!!!!

Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 15 years ago

I went to the local Guitar Centar looking for a good instruction book on how to play the blues, thumbed thru about 10-15 different ones. This one surpassed them all by far. A short history on the blues, recomended musicians, a CD, major and minor scales, major and minor chord voicings, etc... This book has so much to offer, its what I've been looking for for years! You will not be disapointed at all with this book, you can only improve your playing techniques.

A very concise and well directed study of Blues guitar. This is one of the best books about guitar I've read.

one of the best!

I am (unfortunately) one of those folks who just can't resist buying every guitar instruction book I can find - at least ever one having to do with blues guitar. I have been doing this for a few years know, alwyas looking for that magin "silver bullet" that will move my underrstanding and my playing to the next level. I have lots of good books but am always left disappointed for one reason or another. Well, not anymore. This is (IMO) the best material I have ever found and cona honestly say that working my way through the book and excercises I was improving by orders of magnitude with each section. More important, it was my "understanding" of blues, blues leads, scales, and the like that was really developing so at the end of the day what I got was understanding - (as opposed to a bunch of cool riffs I had memorized) - and that has made all the difference. Great book - I highly recommend this one.
