Discovering Rock Guitar

Have you always wanted to play the guitar like Scotty Moore and Carlos Santana, or like the guitarists of Earth, Wind and Fire, T. Rex and The Beatles? Then this book is just right for you! It contains a comprehensive study of twelve different pop guitar styles from 1950 to the present day, such as disco, funk, Latin, reggae, sixties pop, glam and motown. Selected pieces help you to learn what matters with this music and what to pay attention to. Systematic exercises and songs specially composed for this purpose show everybody who wants to improve his/her performance what it is all about; they are complemented by information on important techniques, players, sounds, equipment and amps. As a special bonus, the CD contains the complete demo tracks as well as backing tracks of all songs.Burns, Hugh is the author of 'Discovering Rock Guitar', published 2008 under ISBN 9781902455822 and ISBN 1902455827.
