Brad Davis - Flatpicking The Blues - Book, DVD and CD. In this course, master flat-
picker Brad Davis teaches you how to flatpick the blues. If you are interested in traditional blues, Brad
shows you how to approach playing the blues using both theoretical and practical methods. You will learn
how to play blues style rhythm on several variations of the twelve-bar blues progression. You will then
learn the blues scale at several positions on the neck and learn how to apply those "blues notes" in a free-
form improvisational style over the twelve-bar blues progression. This section not only increases your
knowledge of the guitar fingerboard as it relates to the blues, but also provides you with a method for
increasing your improvisational skills. After laying this groundwork, Brad then examines common blues
phrasing, technique and standard blues licks and demonstrates how to apply them. He also shows you
examples of licks played in the style of  Stevie Ray Vaughan, Robert Johnson and Eric Clapton. Brad even
demonstrates how Bill Monroe's blues licks on the mandolin can be incorporated on the guitar. In addition
to teaching you how to play straight blues, Brad also demonstrates and teaches how you might take tunes
that you may already know from the standard flatpicking repertoire and spice them up with blues licks. If
you are tired of playing flatpicked fiddle tunes and bluegrass songs the same old way, you will greatly
appreciate Brad's instruction on how you can add excitement and interest to songs that you already play
by adding a blues flavor. Notation, tab and chord diagrams.......................................................................Price - $39.95
