5.0 out of 5 stars Blues Rock Guitar Soloing DVD (DVD) ~ Mat Gurman
Blues Rock Guitar Soloing DVD by Mat Gurman is a good companion to his Blues Licks book and CD. If you have completed Mat's Blues Lick book, there are a few extra theory items that will complete your training. The examples of each guitar hero's style and explainations were helpful to me.

I have only watched this through once, but doubt I will watch it much more. Matt is certainly a good guitarist with a variety of skills, but I am not sure who this is aimed at. As perhaps an intermediate level, I am interested in soaking up as much detail as I can, but this left me high and dry.

There are certainly demonstrations of a lot of styles, but the tab and the slowed down demo is usually restricted to a bar or two. The close up of his pick hand is screen lower right - just where the camera has placed the fret hand. Sometimes one blocks the other. I have not seen this mistake on other DVDs.

On the positive side, the sections on phrasing are quite good (singing to rhythm and then putting it into notes), but not overly original.

All in all a disappointing and short DVD with tabs that are of limited value. At least it is not an expensive DVD. There is much better out there (I am working from TrueFire lessons at the moment).
