Description

Almost by definition, acoustic blues guitar has a dark side - it was born from suffering, after all. This course presents 6 songs by blues legends Robert Johnson and Scrapper Blackwell, two giants of acoustic blues guitar. You will learn all songs in great detail. Each song is covered in one video lasting between 15 and 25 minutes, which also includes on-screen guitar tablature and a PDF file for downloading for later study. Everything needed to learn and play the song is included. Scrapper Blackwell songs - Blues Day Blues, Down and Out, Kokomo Blues and Blues Before Sunrise. Robert Johnson - Me and the Devil, and Love In Vain. The level is not super complex, but you should have some experience in finger picking guitar techniques and changing basic chords - you will also be learning (probably) some new blues chord structures. Jim Bruce was voted N°2 Internet Guitar Instructor by Truefire in 2013.
