DOWNLOAD EBOOK →There are many intellectual curiosities about the blues. It has always seemed a phenomenon that the guitar styles that came out of the South during the twenties and thirties could be differentiated by their regional characteristics. On hearing a strange new artist, one can almost pinpoint his city of origin through his guitar technique. The Mississippi Delta produced a sound distinct from that of Texas. Atlanta had a very popular style that seems to have been confined to that city. The music of Louisiana has a weird voodoo texture, while the Carolinas produced another totally different sound. Music is quite a powerful tool. Words of explanation can never express the impact of a musical experience. I am going to attempt to teach the music of some great guitar bluesmen. It is not going to be isolated and picked apart, but presented with its historical value as well as personal and emotional value. Words will not be my tools for this venture; instead I will incorporate photographs and interview to describe these feelings.

DOWNLOAD EBOOK →The same folk process that gave birth to the blues and ragtime guitar styles is at work today. In this book, Stefan Grossman shows what has been happening among today's innovative guitarists—and gives you a glimpse of where it all might lead. It begins with some original blues compositions, much in the spirit of his monumental Country Blues Guitar Series, then goes on to deal with the art of adapting fiddle tunes and classic piano rags to the guitar. It introduces you to a whole new range of tunings and chord positions, which are simply not to be found in any ordinary guitar instruction book. Songs and compositions by such outstanding modern guitarists as Dave Laibman, Eric Schoenberg, Eric Kaz, Marc Silber, and others make this book unique among today's guitar guides. Stefan Grossman is the author of numerous books on the blues guitar, including Country Blues Guitar, Delta Blues Guitar, and Ragtime Blues Guitarists, all published by Oak. He is also a guitarist's guitarist, veteran of concerts, personal appearances, and recording sessions in the U.S. and beyond.
