BackUP Trax: Basic Blues for Guitar by Dix Bruce

Learn to play fourteen classic blues: Country and Urban Blues, Acoustic and Electric Blues, Delta Blues, Texas Blues, Chicago Blues, Slide Guitar Blues, Alternate Tuning, Traditional and Modern Blues in many different major and minor keys.
Turn on the hot blues rhythm section CD, play along, and you've got the makings of a dynamite blues jam session! Learn the melody from the book and/or make up your own riffs, licks, and solos. Repeat a tune or passage as many times as you wish. You play all the leads and solos! Band includes guitar, bass, drums, piano and harmonica. We'll jam all night long. Hear an audio sample by clicking the antique speaker above.

• Beginners & Intermediate players can practice basic skills. Advanced players can hone their improvisation chops.
• Everyone learns at his or her own individual pace.
• Melodies are first presented on the recording at a slow speed with just guitar, then repeated at regular speed with the band. Finally, the band plays several choruses and you play all the leads.
• Split track recording allows you to hear either just melody from one speaker, just the rhythm section from the other, or both for maximum flexibility and specific study, while reading melody, tablature, and chords in the book.

• Potential for improvement is unlimited.
• The band never gets tired. We'll jam all night long!
