With its 50 Blues rhythms inspired by the biggest hits of the greatest guitarists of all time (Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Albert King, Muddy Waters, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robert Cray, Albert Collins, B.B. King, T-Bone Walker etc.), this tutorial will keep you pleasantly busy for quite a while. But there’s more to it than that! Besides affording pleasure, these rhythms allow you to discover and study the tools required for a good Blues accompaniment: triads, double stops, single notes, bends, barre chords, slides, hammer-ons, pull-offs, rest strokes, binary and shuffle rhythms, etc. All this is included in the guidelines given to you in the preliminary chapter –guidelines regarding the structure, the rhythm, as well as the chords employed. The DVD attached to the tutorial offers you the possibility to mindfully observe all 50 rhythms – first at actual playing speed, then at a slower speed. This again gives you the opportunity to closely follow the movement of the hands, to choose the right fingerings and keep a steady beat(!) For its part, the MP3 CD is composed of as many backing tracks as there are rhythms in the tutorial; the 50 backing tracks are recorded at two different tempi: the intended tempo (actual playing speed) and the rehearsal tempo (slower speed). On the backing track at actual playing speed the Guitar is only present during the first round, then it disappears, yielding the floor to you. The backing tracks provided here are of an appropriate length (about 4 to 5 minutes each, which sums up to almost 7h of musical practice). This means that you have enough time at your disposal to practice under the best conditions.

This Bass method differs from others since it is entirely based on practice. You will not find riffs or licks of one or two lines, but rather full pieces in the style of some of the greatest bluesmen - Otis Rush, BB King, Eric Clapton, Freddie King,Buddy Guy, Albert King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Magic Sam and more. Before addressing the 50 Bass lines in this method, a preliminary chapter will teach you how to build lines in the blues style. In doing so, you will be able to analyse what you areplaying later, before learning to create your own. You'll also be introduced to structure, rhythm, arpeggios, scales, chromatic approaches and more. The included DVD allows you to listen to all of the featured Bass lines played at normal speed, thenat a reduced speed, in order to learn the right gestures. The MP3 CD contains backing tracks for you to play along to, at two different speeds: the first being normal (the speed to be achieved), while the second is reduced to help with study. Intotal, over seven hours of music is included, giving you the opportunity to practice in the best possible conditions.

Quest'opera presenta una serie di ritmi, grooves, fills o breaks di batteria negli stili Blues e Shuffle. La prima parte del metodo si concentra sui brani blues in 4/4, assai rapidi, che spaziano dal Rhythm 'n' Blues allo Shuffle passando per il Blues tradizionale od il Blues Rock. La seconda parte invece affronta i blues lenti in 12/8, i quali richiedono precisione e concentrazione. Si suona laid-back, cioè dietro al tempo. In breve si tratta di un ampio panel di grooves alla maniera dei batteristi che accompagnano i più grandi artisti di questo stile: Buddy Guy, B.B. King, ZZ Top, Eric Clapton, Freddie King, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Albert King, Magic Sam… Per ogni brano, troverete 5registrazioni diverse sul CD MP3 allegato, distribuite nel modo seguente: la batteria da sola, a velocit normale poi ridotta, la stessa parte di batteria suonata però sulla sua base musicale ed infine la sola base musicale, prima a velocit normale, poi ridotta... per permettere ad ognuno d’imparare e di suonare secondo il proprio ritmo, il proprio livello e le proprie capacit . Ossia quasi 4 ore di musica in tutto!
