Summary of This Method
From B.B. King and Buddy Guy to Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, and many others, blues guitar has shaped contemporary popular music. This detailed method (with a required reading level) introduces you to the fundamentals of the blues language through the structural elements of the style: the 12-bar blues, essential scales (pentatonic and blues scale), and characteristic playing techniques such as bends, double stops, and typical attacks. You will find ready-to-use blues licks, intros, and turnarounds to enrich your progressions, as well as solo examples to learn how to build a coherent musical statement. Rhythmic work is not forgotten, with boogie rhythms, chord accompaniment, and riffs designed to develop groove. Each concept is illustrated with audio examples available on the CD, ideal for working on timing, ear training, and phrasing, and for moving from simple exercises to a real playing feel.
