Description

In this follow-up DVD Adam has created a user-friendly, pick-style lesson that teaches licks, scales, bass runs, chord shapes, turnarounds and progressions in a variety of keys and blues genres. He starts with a “straight-eight Jimmy Reed” rhythm in E, adding bass run turnarounds, riffs, bends and “chicken-pickin'” effects, building a full, funky arrangement. You’ll also learn an old-timey country blues tune in A and a rag/blues in C, and a laid-back but musically rich exploration of a “Stormy Monday/T-Bone Walker”-style slow blues in G, full of sliding, jazz-like R&B chords and soulful fills. Clear expanations and several interactive play-along sections make this lesson an exciting learning experience for all players. Intermediate. Note/tab included as PDF file on the disc. 105 min.
