Summary of This Method
This method is designed as a true learning journey to build solid foundations in blues guitar, then gain freedom in playing. It focuses on the essentials: understanding blues progressions, enriching your accompaniment with characteristic riffs and chords, and developing expressive lead playing through reusable licks.
The table of contents gradually guides you through 21 complete solos, designed to work on phrasing, articulation, and musicality in various styles, from Delta to Texas blues, including R&B, gospel, and blues/rock. The sections dedicated to chords, progressions, and riffs help strengthen your right hand, sense of groove, and timing, so you sound credible both in accompaniment and chorus.
You will also find typical turnarounds, transposable scales, and concrete approaches to improvisation without going in circles. Essential blues techniques are addressed in a practical way, notably string bending, to achieve accurate and expressive inflections. The CD, with its demonstration and full versions, allows you to work on listening, verify playing intentions, and progress effectively at your own pace.
