Editorial Review:

Product Description:
If you're a guitarist who's learned the pentatonic scale up and down the neck but still asks, "During a solo, how do I know what to play and when to play it?", then this book is for you. Its goal is to give you a variety of great blues licks that you can put together bar by bar to create a complete blues solo. Covers: the 12-bar blues progression, cool riffs, complete solos and more. The CD features "Music Minus Me" tracks that let you play along as the featured soloist.




Rating: - Amazing!!! Exactly what I needed!!!
First, I would like to say there are many good books and DVDs out there; however, the problem that I found were in the particulars that were being taught when it comes to soloing. Chord progressions can be learned in just about any blues book you pick up but soloing is what most of us want to learn. Blues solos are tricky as they tell a story; they breath; they make you feel. All the books I have do not help you with this; they give you scales and a couple licks but somehow you are supposed to ... Read More

Rating: - Fantastic Slo Blues Tutorial
I've got to hand it to Chris Hunt. He knows how to make a buck in the music business by putting out compelling product. In this book you have a step by step or bar by bar approach to teaching slow 12 bar blues. The caveat being the licks are cherry picked and sound as tho they were gleaned from Robben Ford's blues vocabulary. I ordered this on a lark half thinking it would be mediocre to horrible but man was I wrong ! The only improvement to this tutorial I can think of would be to change up the tempo's ... Read More

Rating: - Best electric blues book out there.
I have twenty or so books on electric blues guitar. Most of them are terrible. Riffs are mediocre or they're played without any context or even backing track. Hard to believe, but there's a lot of worthless junk out there.

This one is different. The riffs are very cool sounding, the track is well done with guitar in one channel and the band in the other. And the context is completely broken down and memorable.

In other words its easy, fun, and cool.

If you're ... Read More

Rating: - " I FOUND SOME GEMS IN THIS BOOK "
I liked this book because the author gives you all the elements of creating leads on your own. If you are an intermediate level guitar player you will find some of the riffs pretty basic; however,as you move through each example you will "catch up" to your own personal skill level.The reason I sought out a book of this sort was to learn some new riffs; I found some real gems in this book that I can infuse with what I know already. One thing I really enjoyed was that each riff had an audio example with the tablature.Even ... Read More

Rating: - Entry level
Well for all the stuff I read about it and thought it might turn out to be... this turned out to just about ok. I was looking for licks and this has licks that can be memorised and reissued and re used. But it stops at just phrases and at time is actually monotonous...

If you want to get a quick bunch of licks that are at best average, get this book and CD.

Else you're better off with some of the other tutorials which are more intelligent.
