Frank Vignola: Modern Guitar Method - Jammin' the Blues 1 (incl. CD)

This volume in the Modern Guitar Method Supplements (formerly of the Frank Vignola play-along series) contains useful, well-structured solos for 11 choruses of the blues in the most common keys. Funky, bluesy, and bop oriented lines allow you to feel and hear what it is like to play a well-constructed solo. In the performance tempo recordings, the solo segments are often followed by numerous choruses featuring the rhythm section. This format allows for individual practice of the written solos or elaboration of original ideas with a "live" rhythm section. The solos provide an opportunity for the student to interact with the recording by copying ideas, building upon what has just been played, or practicing the chords to the piece. Downloadable online audio available.
