Summary of This Method
The Legendary Licks series offers a guided immersion into an artist's style through a format designed for fast progress and playing "in context." This volume focuses on Brian Setzer's rock and swing universe, covering 12 iconic tracks from the Stray Cats era through his solo career. The goal is clear: to help you assimilate a multitude of licks, riffs, fills, and solos, with concrete playing explanations and audio examples to immediately hear the expected result.
Thanks to the demonstration recordings, you identify essential nuances (attack, accentuation, feeling) and can then switch to play-along mode: with the recording in split-channel, it becomes easy to isolate certain parts or play along with the accompaniment. Fast or delicate passages also benefit from slowed-down versions on the CD, a major asset for working on precision without losing the groove.
The method includes tablatures to follow each lick closely, as well as "gear setup" indications to get closer to Setzer's characteristic sound. A historical overview completes the package, while the Brian Setzer Chord Dictionary and the Brian Setzer Scale Primer provide solid references to enrich your rockabilly and swing vocabulary on the fretboard.
In this pack, you will find: Built For Speed, The Dirty Boogie, Hoodoo Voodoo Doll, Jump, Jive An' Wail, Let's Live It Up, Rock This Town, Rumble In Brighton, Runaway Boys, Sleepwalk, Stray Cat Strut, Switchblade 327, This Cat's On A Hot Tin Roof. An excellent choice to develop an expressive, dynamic, and rhythmically incisive playing style, typical of rock'n'roll and modern swing.
