Book Description

July 1, 1987
This book/cassette includes several examples of the various musical styles or 'grooves' of such groups as The Temptations, James Brown, and other top acts from the 50's and 60's. The stylistic examples focus on the styles played by background players from the two eras. The cassette contains full rhythm section examples of the exercises from the book. If you want to become the bass player or the drummer in the group, this is made available to you by either turning off either the left or right channel. An outstanding, practical and historical volume.

5.0 out of 5 stars excellent book for guitarists who start digging 50's & 60's guitar parts, February 6, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: The Art Of Playing Rhythm And Blues for Guitar Bass, and Drums, Volume One: The 50's and 60's (Paperback)
A true vintage item...

come with a real tape, which suggest how old it the book.

I know this book for a while, I owned it back in the day and lost it since.

Bought it again on Amazon, and working with students on this book.

Great fundamentals, for every student;

If you don't know the book:

It gives short examples (4-8 measures) of grooves/riffs, from this era.

Both guitar parts are written in notes and tabs, as well as the bass part.

Drums part is written as well, which makes it a good book for drummer and bassist too.

The tape (which I converted to a CD), offer all the tracks, when the 1st guitar is panned to one channel, second guitar to second channel, so you can easily isolate or eliminate one guitar, or the other by tweaking the balance knob, which getting less and less common (ipod for example, doesn't have it).
