5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent! I was playing "The Blues" in no time., May 25, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Songxpress: Classic Blues 1 [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Guitar players (or wanna-be's) don't miss this video. I've been playing guitar for a short time and have had problems learning to play songs. After watching this video a few times and a little practice, I'm playing like a pro. It's easy ! Best money I've spent in a long time. Long live "The Blues" !!!!

1.0 out of 5 stars Lots of "Flash". Very Little Material..., July 30, 2005

Magellan "Scarpetti" (USA) - See all my reviews

This review is from: SongXpress Classic Blues, Vol 1 (DVD) (DVD)

Wow, they sure spent a lot of time and money making sure they got "cool" effects for the section intros. Too bad there is so little material. Oh, and instead of wide angle shots of playing the songs why not more split screen of right and left hands with Tab. Too much trouble I guess. WAY too many shots of a wiggling hand on a fretboard while being told that there are many more variations you COULD learn (that they don't show!) If you think you will learn these whole songs guess again. So little to work with here. I'm cured of buying ANY Songxpress title from here on out.

Thanks for nuthin'

4.0 out of 5 stars Good Instructional DVD, September 5, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: SongXpress Classic Blues, Vol 1 (DVD) (DVD)

The instructor repeats each section a few times at slow and normal speed. You won't learn the exact leads, but you'll learn enough to sound like you know what you're doing.
