A pragmatic approach to comping includes custom-built voicings for blues and roots styles, a section dedicated to Freddie Green chord forms, 12-bar maps with various turnarounds, and an introduction to the concept of layered rhythm parts.The section on soloing delves into applying chord tones for more expansive ideas; it contains fretboard charts illustrating pentatonic scales, the blues scale and the Mixolydian mode and suggests opportunities for tension and release by applying diminished and altered dominant subterfuge.The books excellent play-along guitar, bass and drums companion recordings in jump and funk blues, rockabilly, Latin, and Cajun styles will be useful not only as rhythm guitar examples and backup tracks for lead playing, but also for songwriters who want something more than a metronome or drum track for lyric inspiration and phrasing accuracy.Musical examples are shown in standard notation and tab, extended fretboard diagrams plus the Nashville numbering system, making it easy to play chord backup in any key like a pro.
