Guitar Techniques August 2018 (#285) contents:

• Crank Up Your Blues! Your best minor licks yet. Three-fingers-per-string licks and the Minor scale are perfect bed fellows for blues. Players like Gary Moore and Rory Gallagher have used them to superb effect, as Rich Barrett shows.
• Country Rocks. The pickers who hotted it up! Andy Saphir takes five top Nashville fret-melters (Albert Lee, Brent Mason, Vince Gill, Brad Paisley, Danny Gatton) and gives you their hottest licks.
• Abide With Me. This beautiful hymn tabbed. An avowed favourite of luminaries including King George V and Mahatma Ghandi, this beloved tune gets the Bridget treatment.
• Blues. Ronan McCullagh examines the thoughtful but equally immense blues-rock soloing of Free's Lord Of Vibraty, the incendiary Paul Kossoff.
• Rock. Martin Cooper discovers the secrets behind the genius that is King Crimson's Robert Fripp.
• Jazz. John Wheatcroft introduces Diana Krall and Harry Connick Jr guitarist Russell Malone.
• Acoustic. Stuart Ryan says The Kinks have 'really got him' as he looks at frontman Ray Davies' playing.
• Slide. Harrison Marsh unraves the intricasies of electric resonator master, the amazing Eric Sardinas.
• Creative rock. Shaun Baxter discusses 'delayed resolution' in this month's Creative Rock feature.
• Fretboard fluency. Martin Goulding continues his series with a look at the Natural Minor scale, aka Aeolian mode.
• In The Woodshed. Charlie Griffiths explains how players like Van Halen, Nile Rodgers and Keith Richards make big sounds with small, three-string chords.
