This review is from: The Guitarist's Survival Kit: Everything You Need to Know to Be a Working Musician (Paperback)
This book is pure fluff, there is nothing really usefull in here. There are a few examples of different blues licks etc. One decent section is the "colorful chords" that you can use to replace normal chrods in an arrangement to give somehting a little more flavor, without interfering with other insturments in the group
5.0 out of 5 stars
Worth the price of admission,

This review is from: The Guitarist's Survival Kit: Everything You Need to Know to Be a Working Musician (Paperback)
This book got 5 stars from me for pages 20 and 21.
Considering the size of the book, this is not bad. (I have a lot of books that give me nothing) It is called Root-Position Jazz chords in 2-5-1 progressions If you get a chance to play these chords, you will love this book; these chords are movable which means you can just hold your fret position and run up or down the neck for most of them and come out with a great sounding progression, and almost sound like you know what you are doing. Every once and a while you just run into a chord progression that you connect with. This book is not meant to do much more than give you an example of different play styles and it does that well. I have not gotten into all of the book, but there is a lot that looks promising. With two out of two reviewers that liked parts of the book (even though for the life of me I cannot find any section that is called COLORFUL CHORDS and makes me wonder if he was reviewing the correct book), I don't see how you could pass it up. Also, I have found that if you are in to blues, then the books written by Dave Rubin are some of the best.
