User Ratings and Reviews
5 Stars Musical AND logical.
“All Blues Soloing…” takes you step by step in an easy to understand, logical progression. The writing is clear and not abstruse. Each solo is an excellent example which makes the point of the written section but is also a beautiful, short musical piece which doesn’t sound forced and is fun to play (which you can do along with the accompanying CD, very helpful for those who get the rhythms better by listening).
5 Stars Great book!
I’ve looked at many books to improve my improvising skills. I learned more from this book than all of them put together.
5 Stars A useful and enjoyable tool
I have been using this and the Blues Comping Styles for Jazz Guitar at the reccommendation of my guitar teacher and have found both books to be informative and useful. I am relatively new to guitar playing and have learned some difficult techniques at a rapid pace. My compliments to the author.
