Customer Reviews

Excellent book!!!!
I have been playing guitar for over three years and despite constant efforts to come up with my own soloing ideas, I always seem to sound like I am just playing up and down scales. This book has really helped me get past this stumbling block and start making my solos sound like solos!!!! Definitely recommend this book!!!

wish I'd had this 20 years ago
this is the book and cd I wish I'd had 20 years ago. My favorite music is blues, especially Allman Brothers, BB King, Muddy Waters. This cd and the book teach in baby steps (literally a bar at a time) and in the first five examples i've already learned licks I've tried to play for years. I'm an intermediate player.

Must have
Of all the guitar books I own, this is the one I will complete.
The licks are right out of the blues scale, but take tasteful,
unexpected turns. I always start a practice session going over this book
to make sure what I have learned stays in rotation.
Glad to own it.
