Blues Alchemy - Instructional Guitar 2-DVD Pack Featuring David Hamburger Review

Blues Alchemy contains 10 lessons on how to play blues in 10 different styles. Each lessons contains solo and rhythm playing demonstration - both in tempo and played slower - with discussion of each element - showing the fingering and the flow of the music (call-response) very clearly. For both solo and rhythm part there are additional lessons discussing possible variations. Each lesson is available as video and transcription including tablature as PDF. Also as PowerTab files. Generous jam tracks in each style are included.
General approach in Blues Alchemy is to help players transcend playing minor pentatonic scale over entire blues progression. This course will teach you how to switch between major and minor pentatonic sales (and blues scales) to outline the harmony in much more interesting way then using minor pentatonic all the way through. David discusses each style of blues covered and he picked each solo to very clearly demonstrate important aspects that style. This is one of better courses for advanced beginner blues guitarist out there - if you cover several lessons then I bet that you will survive without too much stress playing for the first time at your local blues jam.

Product Description:
As anyone who squeaked through 10th grade history knows, the alchemists were a semi-scientific posse of medieval individuals utterly hung up on the notion of transforming lead into gold. Of course, their efforts did not lead to economic good times, but Blues Alchemy addresses a much more useful and likely kind of transformation: turning those leaden, everyday blues licks and chord progressions into tasty and intriguing improvisational gold. These DVDs are about learning to play the changes, but not in the sense that jazz musicians do it isn't about learning every arpeggio and mode under the sun. Instead, on ten diverse chord progressions, master blues alchemist David Hamburger will teach you how to transform your blues bag into gold by learning how to target tones and play the changes. This hands-on playing course guides the student through 10 distinct blues rhythm patterns and variations, 10 distinct solos and variations, plus dozens of extra blues licks and tricks of the trade.
