This
2-CD video Blue Grooves course from Mark Wilson teaches the student ten blues rhythm patterns and solos across a variety of
blues styles.
The objective of
the course is to teach the student the subtleties of playing over various
blues styles with both rhythm patterns and improvisational solos. Although
you will learn ten new blues instrumental tunes to add to your repertoire,
the course is more focused on teaching the skills necessary to develop tasty
solo and rhythm chops.
Blue Grooves lesson elements include two digital video
segments, jam track, text overview, source links, interactive tab and
standard notation - all presented in TrueFire’s proprietary multi-media,
cross-platform instructional player.
Most players
tend to rely on their standard bag of licks and rhythm chops in most blues
situations - this course will push you beyond the comfort zone to give you a
fresh perspective and new bag of tricks to draw on. Here's how …
Ten blues instrumentals are
broken up into a rhythm lesson and a solo lesson, each demonstrated in
context against a jam track.
The video rhythm lessons first
demonstrate the part as written in its basic form. The rhythm part is then
expanded on to illustrate alternate voicings and fills to stretch the
rhythm part out with.
The video
solo lessons first demonstrate the solo as written, then break it down note-by-note
and expanded on ways to stretch and twist your solos in that
particular style.
Each pair of lessons (rhythm and
solo) feature a jam track
for students to practice over to nail the part being covered.
A text description provides an
overview of the tune along with some background on artists synonymous with
that style of blues.
Power Tab
included (interactive
tablature), so you can see, hear and slow tablature and notation. |
