For Those About to Rock...
Before there was rock, there was Rock 'n' Roll - an exciting, new style that outraged traditionalists and earned a reputation as rebellious, dangerous, and even the music of the devil!
Rock 'n' Roll Guitar wasn't just a collection of licks and riffs - it was a sound, feel, and a way of playing that blew up popular music and defined a generation practically overnight.
So to truly understand the roots of modern rock and pop, it's essential to master the art of Rock 'n' Roll guitar.
The Rock 'n' Roll Guitar Book is a deep dive into the art, heritage and culture of the music. You'll discover the styles of the Rock 'n' Roll pioneers, including:
T-Bone Walker Muddy Waters Bo Diddley Chuck Berry Carl Perkins Cliff Gallup Danny Cedrone Scotty Moore Buddy Holly Tommy Allsup Eddie Cochran Roy Orbison James Burton Link Wray Duane Eddy Dick Dale The Ventures Hank Marvin
You'll take a comprehensive look at every influential artist while learning the chronology of Rock 'n' Roll: From Blues and Swing to Rockabilly, Surf, Instrumental, Twang and beyond...
By the end of The Rock 'n' Roll Guitar Book, you will be able to:
Play rhythm and lead guitar in authentic Rock 'n' Roll styles
Move beyond generic licks and create phrases that sound stylistically correct
Understand how classic riffs, solos and rhythm parts are constructed
Apply vintage phrasing, techniques and tone to your own playing
Perform with the feel, confidence and authority of early Rock 'n' Roll guitarists
But you won't just robotically learn isolated examples, you'll learn the techniques, approaches, theory and scales that were used to create them.
Build authentic Rock 'n' Roll riffs and solos by combining major and minor pentatonics with blues vocabulary
Create driving rhythm parts using common chord progressions, swing and straight feels, and important phrasing
Use double-stops, intervallic ideas and chord fragments to connect rhythm and lead into a cohesive playing style
Expand your harmonic language with the extended chords used throughout Rock 'n' Roll and Rockabilly
Develop expressive lead techniques including bends, slides, legato and chromatic phrasing for musical solos
Master essential picking approaches such as alternate picking, hybrid picking and tremolo picking for stylistic accuracy
Shape your tone, feel and articulation with palm muting, dynamics, slap-back phrasing and reverb-based textures
This truly is the most comprehensive guide to playing Rock 'n' Roll Guitar ever written.
