John Lawrence - Improvising Solos For Guitar - Book and CD John Lawrence - Walking Bass Solos - Book and CD
In this unique lesson, David
teaches two
classic ragtime compositions: "Red Carpet Rag" and Scott
Joplin's 1899 famous "Maple Leaf Rag". These are
difficult arrangements but they
are taught section by section - with split-screen segments so you can
see
exactly what the left and right hands are doing. David explains all fingerings,
slides, hammer-ons and pull-offs,
harmonics and numerous other technical points! As David says often in the lessons:
"Fingerstyle
guitar is a
creative process and there is no single right way to do things. I am
always discovering new ways to play
certain parts and then wondering why it
took me so long to find them. If the fingering of a passage seems
difficult and
you want to change it, go right ahead! Fingerings should work for the music and
for you. Above
all, ragtime should be fun!"

This
book presents some of the soloing techniques that Wes used and also presents many
melodic ideas (lines)
similar to the way he played over the chord progressions in many jazz standards. Because
the major and minor
ii-V-I progressions are the most widely used chord progressions in jazz standards, the
lines in this text will
work over these progressions. The accompanying CD contains many play-along tracks (vamps
of one chord
and
vamps around the circle of fourths) that the guitarist should use to practice the material
in one key and
then
master it in all twelve keys. By learning the techniques used by Wes Montgomery,
guitarists will add to

harmonically. The play-along CD exemplifies how these relate to a harmonic background. Each harmonic section
contains a play-along
recording in the original key and a play-along, moving in fourths, to help the
student practice the lines in all
twelve keys. Eventually, the student will learn to mix and match these ideas and create
lines of their own. The

their ideas to create

Django Reinhardt - Django's Rhythm -
DVD
Taught by Michael Dunn with
guitar solos
by Don Ogilvie. In this DVD, the classic 4-to-the-bar rhythm is
broken down into four separate usable styles.
After that, Django's syncopated
rhythm shots are analyzed and presented by example from a simple back-
beat to
2-bar-long syncopated strums. My own philosophy is that the rhythm guitar
section is the most
important component of the Gypsy Jazz group. The rhythm
guitar should be in a position to drive and not
follow the group. The
information contained in this DVD will give you the rhythmic tools to infuse the
sound with the energy that this genre of music deserves. Lessons include: the
pick & picking, basic
rhythm & variations, ballads, concepts of rhythm guitar,
advanced rhythm: hiccup, shuffle rhythm,
double shuffle, tremolo, half whammy,
short whammy, double whammy, triple whammy, tango rhythm.
