This book is excellent!!,
By
This review is from: Guitar Licks of the Brit-Rock Heroes: Clapton, Beck and Page (Book) (Paperback)
This book, more than any other instructional manual, has really boosted my understanding of blues licks and riffs. Divided into three sections with each section focusing on one of the three greatest White blues guitarists in the history of electric guitar, you'll learn how to do a number of things with a blues lick that you might never catch onto if you are simply trying to mimic lines off a CD. Want to know how Clapton gets that powerful triplets-across-fours sound in some of his old Blues Breakers and Cream solos? This book will show you, and even better, let you hear the riffs on the included CD. Very much worth the money.
5.0 out of 5 stars
A must have for any guitarist!!,

This review is from: Guitar Licks of the Brit-Rock Heroes: Clapton, Beck and Page (Book) (Paperback)
This book is amazing, not only will it show how to learn the best riffs from some of the best guitarists ever, but Jesse Gress also gives you the tools in this book to apply the riffs to your own playing. It has for sure helped me a ton as a guitarist! One thing that I disliked though is that Jimmy Page was only given half the riffs of the other two guitarists, and he is possibly the greatest riff writer of all time! There are a lot more Led Zep songs that the author could have gone over. But, for what is in the book it is certainly worth getting!
