Acoustic Blues Guitar Styles

Beschreibung

Acoustic Blues Guitar Styles is an introduction to fingerstyle acoustic blues guitar, the style made popular by Robert Johnson, Bill Broonzy, and Mance Lipscomb. Following the success of the popular Acoustic Guitar Styles, Larry Sandberg's Acoustic Blues Guitar Styles is an instructional book geared towards the intermediate guitar player, not only to teach fingerstyle blues technique, but also to approach the music creatively and with feeling and rhythm.

Part One teaches you the preliminaries, such as reading a chord chart and working out a 12-bar blues in different keys. Part Two teaches you touch, timing, and basic fingerpicking technique. Part Three teaches you how to play stylistically, with lessons on how to incorporate bends, vibrato, alternating bassnotes, and rhythmic variations into your playing. All musical exercises are presented in both standard notation and tablature, and are supported by audio tracks.

Rezensionen

"Acoustic Blues also serves as a reminder to players of all levels on just how influential this style of guitar work has been: From the great Delta strains of Robert Johnson to the early work of Bob Dylan to the modern cadences that San Francisco's Roy Rogers carves out of time, the acoustic blues has been at the center of American music-driving its backbeat, building its delicate histories. Here, Larry Sandberg, through his careful instruction and clear-minded narrative, insures that new generations of aspiring guitar players will carry-on thesetimeless traditions of guitar-picking in perpetuity." -John Aiello, The Electric Review
