The Roots Of Acoustic Blues Guitar
The earliest blues recordings, made in the 1920s, 30s, and 40s, were more than the foundation for modern blues. The 78 rpm disks made by pickers/singers like Blind Blake, Big Bill Broonzy, and Skip James have reverberated down through the decades that followed and have changed the course of country music, jazz, R&B, rock 'n' roll, and pop music. This guitar book samples the many sounds of early acoustic blues. Each of the six classic blues tunes transcribed here demonstrates a particular blues style. Every song is preceded by information, exercises, scales, licks, and chords that are needed for that style, plus an informative biography of each pioneering artist. The six blues hits in this book are featured on the CD and display a diversity of licks and styles. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced player who wants to get back to the roots, here is the essential guitar stuff. This is an introduction to and an appreciation of great vintage music, and it's a foundation on which you can build your own style.
