Review

This is an absolutely wonderful book - doing exactly what it says on the cover! It is probably not a book for the very beginner but for those who have been playing for a short while and wish to expose themselves to the blues, there is no better source.

I have been learning bits and pieces of blues songs for years but felt I was missing stuff, this book is terrific for filling in all the gaps.
Be aware to fully use the book and absorb all material beginners will have to spend about 6 months with the book, but it will build a very strong foundation to becoming a blues player. Excellent book/CD, highly recommended.

This book starts off with some basics and builds up to some fairly in depth lessons - don't let this put you off, as everything is well explained and laid out. This book is well worth the money and will keep you going for a long time as you progress through each study. Recommended.

Great book, great concept! Not that it's something that new, but it's the first time I have seen it applied to Blues guitar in such a methodic maner. Solos, rhythm, drills, scales, chords and all structured in a logical fashion. Even the tunes are tasty considering the initial limitations they have.

I have tried many guitar books over the years and the 'Blues you can use' series are my favourites so far. Each lesson guides you through learning blues guitar in a logical and easy to follow manner. In each section you are taught exercises and techniques and then you get to put them into practice by playing along to tracks on the CD. I've been tempted to skip a few pages in the past but I would strongly advise against it. Every lesson will smoothly develop your playing and, if for example you skip the scales sections at the beginning, you will have a hard time with some of the lessons later in the book. Buy this great book now!
