Learn To Play Blues Guitar With Step-By-Step Lessons And 20 Great Blues Songs

The Hal Leonard Blues Guitar Method is your complete guide to learning blues guitar. This book uses excerpts from real blues songs - no corny arrangments of nursery rhymes here! (well, except Mary Had a Little Lamb, but this is NOT the version you learned in kindergarten!) - to teach you the basics of rhythm and lead blues guitar in the style of B.B. King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Buddy Guy, Eric Clapton, Muddy Waters, and many others. Lessons include: 12-bar blues; chords, scales and licks; vibrato and string bending; riffs, turnarounds, and boogie patterns; hammer-ons, pull-offs, and slides; standard notation and tablature; and much more! Song excerpts include: Boom Boom · Born Under a Bad Sign · Double Trouble · Killing Floor · Sweet Home Chicago · You Shook Me · and more. The online audio includes over 70 tracks for demo and play-along, and is available using the unique code printed inside each book.
