The years 1945-1965 saw a radical and exciting shift in American popular music. Blues and swing jazz helped to produce a new musical form called rhythm and blues, which in turn set in motion the development of soul and funk, not to mention rock 'n' roll. What united these genres was an emphasis on the beat, or the groove, over the melody that would culminate in the syncopated monochord workouts of funk. Along the way, some of the greatest electric guitarists of the postwar years explored the boundaries of the new instrument with a rich array of hot licks. This book/CD pack explores everything from the swinging boogie of Tiny Grimes, to the sweaty primal funk of Jimmy Nolen, to the styles of Mickey Baker, Billy Butler, Steve Cropper, Cornell Dupree, Jerry Jemmott, Curtis Mayfield, Ike Turner and everyone in between. Includes in-depth lessons, historical analysis, rare photos, and a CD with 33 full-band tracks. 88 pages.

To become a better blues guitar player, you need to spend some serious time "learning the moves" -the techniques that blues guitarists employ and the little tricks of the trade that make them sound so good. This book is fJled with exercises that can help you with specific technical problems.
The exercises presented in this book cover all the important blues guitar techniques, such as string bending, pentatonic scales, hammer-ons and pull-offs, double stops, barre chords, advanced chords, pedal-steel tricks, blues changes, and there is even a chapter on slide guitar playing. There are also lots of exercises designed solely to train your fretting-hand fingers to act independently, which is not something they do naturally.
We also cover the picking hand in this book. Alternate picking exercises and pick-and-fingers techniques are examined in detail. Also, there is an extensive look at chords-the best ones to use, how to easily move from one to another, the most common sets of strings on which chords are played, how to recognize when to use anchor fingers and how to employ devices such as harmonics. Technical training is challenging, and may even seem somewhat daunting. But with application on your part, and a willingness to work at each exercise until it is mastered and understood, you will become a much better player. All the exercises follow the philosophical principle of "Occam's Razor," which says that the easiest, simplest way to do things is generally the best way. If you don't like the fingerings I've used, don't use them. But I think they are the easiest and if you give them a chance, you'll probably come to see why rchose them.
There may be some symbols you have not seen before:

I) = Extension 1. Extend (reach) your first finger out of position one fret, but do not move your hand out
of position.

4) = Extension 4. Same as extension 1, except with your 4th finger
I hope this book helps you play cleaner, faster and with better articulation. The goal, as always, is no mistakes. See you at the gig.
