If you're feeling confident in fingerpicking blues in the key of E but you want to expand your ideas and techniques then this lesson is for you. We'll leave the world of Lightnin' Hopkins and Mississippi John Hurt and explore more pianistic ideas adapted to the guitar. Arrangements of Mose Allison's If You Live and Joe Zawinul's Mercy, Mercy, Mercy will show you how to extend and explore blues ideas to new guitar textures. Gershwin's Summertime becomes a playground of counterpoint ideas and chordal movements. 44 Blues takes a classic Chicago piano lick and places it on the guitar. Cry Havoc offers a blend of old-time blues with modern chords.
This lesson is for the intermediate player who wants to go to the next level. Each tune is taught phrase by phrase and played slowly on a split-screen. A detailed tab/music booklet is included as a PDF file on the DVD.
