John Low - African Fingerstyle Guitar - DVD
The golden age of African fingerpicking guitar was in the 1950's and 1960's. The great players and recording artists of that time
included Jean Boxco Mwenda and Losta Abelo from Zaire and George Mukabi from
Kenya. Guitarists from other parts of the world have rarely if ever had a chance
to learn their songs and playing techniques. On this DVD their arrangements are taught by John Low, an English guitarist who has lived and studied with these African
musicians. There are some interesting links with American guitar styles but there are just as many differences,
including rhythms borrowed from traditional African music and catchy up-beat patterns. Some
beautiful arrangements are taught in this DVD lesson that could easily find a favorite place in any player's repertoire.
