5.0 out of 5 stars SIMPLE AND VERY EFFECTIVE, 27 Dec 2008
By B. WOLFIN (LONDON) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   

As a very experienced blues player, I was looking for a back to basics approach and this book is perfect. Any level of guitarist can learn something - I have been playing for 14 years!

There are 70 licks - all tabbed / music notation with an individual CD track too for each lick. The licks are played clearly and also the book tells you how they fit into the 12 blues pattern and which scales fit over which changes in the 12 bar progression.

Also at the front of the book are all of the scales used in the licks (ALL for the G7 blues) but obviously you can move it all up and down the neck.

The best bit is at the end - two backing tracks of G7 - two of A7 and two of E7 blues - each is around five minutes - so plenty of opportunity to practice the licks in the book or to make up your own ones.

A brilliant book and superb value for money!

4.0 out of 5 stars Blues by the Bar , 21 Mar 2009
A very good purchase, it does what it says on the cover i.e. for those guitarists who have learnt the minor & major pentatonic scales the book shows you what to play on them rather than just doodling up and down the scales aimlessly. You have to listen to the licks carefully on the CD and work out your own fingering as this is not included in the book, which perhaps would have been a good idea. However the licks sound pretty cool to me and I am working my way through them. All the licks in the book are in the same key but as all intermediate guitarists will know how to transpose to other keys of their own choice. The CD has a number of backing tracks for practise which also sound pretty good to me. To sum up a thoroughly recommended purchase for intermediate guitarists seeking to play the blues!
