Jamming The Blues for Electric Acoustic Guitar

Playing the blues is a great way to lose the blues, and jamming with other people is one of the most fun things to do in life! Using blues classics like Stormy Monday, The Thrill is Gone, Keys to the Highway, Big Boss Man, Come Back Bay and Every Day I Have the Blues as examples, Fred teaches all the skills and info you need to jam with other blues players. This lesson covers accompaniment techniques for many different rhythm grooves (shuffle beat, straight 8ths, straight 4 and rock and funk beats) and soloing strategies (key-of-E licks, four moveable blues boxes and some chord-based licks). You'll also learn intros, turnarounds, the twelve-bar and eight-bar blues forms and more.
