Flatpicking the Blues (Book/CD/DVD)

Mel Bay Publications

In this book you will learn the scales, rhythm styles, and chord progressions which define the blues, standard blues licks and phrases, and blues styles of players like Robert Johnson, Eric Clapton, and Stevie Ray Vaughn.
Brad even demonstrates how to play Bill Monroe’s bluesy mandolin licks on the guitar.
On the DVD Brad demonstrates how to play several different arrangements of 12-bar blues rhythm and then shows you how to utilize the blues scales to improvise over the chord progression. This is done in a step-by-step easy to follow method through a variety of written examples in the book and opportunities for you to practice with the practice tracks on the audio CD. The audio CD also contains ear training lessons in the context of the blues.

The goal is not only to show you the elements of the blues, but to teach you how to be an improvisational player in the context of the blues .
Additionally, Brad teaches “bluesy” arrangements of a number of standard flatpicking fiddle tunes (Nine Pound Hammer, Lonesome Road Blues, Salt Creek, John Hardy).
