Deep River Blues Demo 1 - A Study In Travis Picking

Updated version of this lesson now available. See my site for the FULL lesson. Study in Travis Picking using the song Deep River Blues as a framework to build basic picking patterns, a solid groove and foundation then apply the words and begin working the song into 2 solid versions. One using only 3 chords and the other develops into the full Doc Watson style of picking, We cover some of the most important aspects of becoming a very solid player and VOLUME 2 will follow this lesson filling in all the bells and whistles and how to improvise and build your own advanced version

Hello my blues friend. Anytime we'd love to see you on the porch with us anytime :)

Folks if you bought this lesson from my site and don't have this version you should have an email that leads you back to download this new improved version. I also improved the tabs and the color lesson guide book. You can learn a good part of the picking patterns in the middle of this demo. This is all about learning two basic versions and building solid techniques.
