Player Sessions : Licks & Lessons from the World's Greatest
Guitar Players and Teachers by Andy Ellis (Editor)
Electric and
acoustic guitarists can spice up their playing in a variety of
styles with this inspiring book/CD set. Featuring innovative techniques,
these lessons from the pros reflect the provocative mix any serious
guitarist wants: masterful tips and tricks for the next gig, plus
big-picture concepts that nurture playing style and help reach
new levels of creativity and skill. Lessons include Bugs Henderson
on turnarounds, Joe Dalton on rockabilly stretches, B.B. King
on string English, Barney Kessel on fourth-finger workouts, David
Grissom on pedal-steel blues, and dozens more. The 60-minute CD
lets players hear key lessons in the book -- note for note. Plus,
readers get personal, practical advice, like this from Steve Vai
on the art of soloing: "Sometimes I develop a solo by [reciting]
a story...as I say the story, I sing it. No one hears the singing
because the amp's too loud. If you play what you're singing, you
get sentences. Try it. Listen to what you play -- you'll be shocked."
