This is a great book for when you are fed up of all that scale work. the arrangements are authentic and the music is well written in an easy to understand tab that helps you along. take your time listen to the cd and then play along.
there are some real classic blues songs on here, boom boom, the thrill is gone, hoochie coochie man etc. I don't think it is for real beginners, although if you are just starting out it is always good to push yourself, but don't get disheartened, the guys who played this stuff really knew their instruments and how to get the best from them.
