Become a Master of Harmonization --
One of the Most Powerful Blues Technqiues
Yes, harmonization is a key to creating full sounding blues rhythms with
just your one guitar.
The basic idea is to slide up and down the neck across several strings, staying within the key. In DVD 2,
I show you a TON of harmonization
licks, patterns, and ideas. For example...
-
How to write harmonization licks around an E7 chord. Plus, learn several additional
techniques you can combine
with harmonization licks to add flavor to your sound. Check out this small example...
Of course, you'll get detailed tabs of this example,
plus every
other example that's included in this package.
-
Discover a whole slew of ways to use harmonization patterns. Use them with partial
chords, with inverted
chords, or other key blues licks. There's a
TON of examples (too many to list here)
from 20:00 to 25:00 on disc 2!
-
MORE harmonization... you'll see how to create all kinds of slick "voice leading chordal moves"
that sound incredible. You have to check this out at 27:01...
-
Using the open high "E" for a Texas drone blues... Stevie Ray would approve of this lick at
27:35!
-
VERY simple, yet highly melodic single note riffs, made from just a few notes.... There's hundreds of great examples, and I'll also show you how to get even more mileage
from these simple licks by adding chord tones. Pay attention at 28:45.
"Your playing is very good, and very natural. It is
inspirational watching you play and then break down what you are thinking and how you're
approaching it. As I said I have been playing for 16 years but have been stuck in a
rut... playing the same scales, the same licks... it all just sounds the same. I
have needed to get to the next level and get off this plateau and I think your program
gives me an opportunity to do just that.
Thanks very much Claude!"
