1.0 out of 5 stars THE SAD TRUTH ABOUT THIS BOOK!, February 17, 2002
By 
Les Moore (Reno Nevada U.S.A.) - See all my reviews
In my opinion this book has very little to do with heavy metal guitar.The author places heavy emphasis on the blues,and blues influence in modern rock music.The fourth chapter titled"The influence of early rock and blues" which is 33 pages long tells the reader all about people such as Robert Johnson,Otis Rush,Buddy Guy,B.B. King,and mike Bloomfield.The author goes on to tell the reader in chapter six entitled"Early heavy metal lead guitar" about such people as Jimmy Page,Jimi hendrix,and Eric Clapton.There are some exercises and other lessons that are covered such as basic power chords,"whammy" bar exercises,basic rock/blues scales,and some other stuff.There is NO mention of bands like Black Sabbath,Motorhead,Metallica,Slayer,or any of the other great metal bands that(for me) come to mind when I think of heavy metal guitar.This is a great book if you want to learn about how the blues influenced rock,and learn a little blues guitar while your at it.
