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.
