Book Reviews of Blues by the Bar: Cool Riffs That Sound Great over Each Portion of the Blues Progression (Guitar Educational)
Book Review: SIMPLE AND VERY EFFECTIVE
Summary: 5 Stars
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!
