Break Out of the Box,
By
This review is from: Blues Lick Factory: Building Great Blues Riffs - Disk Contains MP3 Files (Paperback)
This is a great book if you're looking to break out of the proverbial pentatonic minor box position and make your soloing more melodic. Essentially, the book is a collection of licks that highlight "target" tones for the I, IV and V chords in the blues progression. It is crammed full of information, and the CD is a welcome addition that was notably lacking in Gress's previous book. You'll need discipline to work through this, but added to a practice routine it will definitely help take the advanced beginner to the intermediate level.

This review is from: Blues Lick Factory: Building Great Blues Riffs - Disk Contains MP3 Files (Paperback)
Blues Factory: great instruction book and CD for building riffs. Some of these you have heard other guitarists play, but now you can tweak and link them into your own as part of your solos. The CD includes mp3 examples that you can link together into your own working copy solo. What a great way to spend practice days playing your riff-blocks.

This review is from: Blues Lick Factory: Building Great Blues Riffs - Disk Contains MP3 Files (Paperback)
A lot of music theory and pretty complicated at first but with the help of my teacher it is starting to make sense. Using the CD when practicing is essential.
