Guitar Techniques March 2018 (#279) contents:
- Acoustic Giants - Clapton and Page. Two of the greatest British blues-rock guitarists are also fine acoustic exponents. While Clapton displays his Delta influences Page is more folk and world music inclined. Check them out!
- Django Reinhardt - Gypsy jazz genius in 25 licks. One of the most extraordinary musicians of all time, he influenced many greats who came after him. Learn his stunning style through 25 licks.
- Vintage to modern blues. 100 years of the greats. It's such a compelling style to play, so here we cover a century of music via those that created the genre and others that continue it today.
- Nick Drake. Legendary folk singer-songwriter. This troubled genius had a style all his own. Stuart Ryan pays tribute to a rare minstrel who struggled with insecurities but created beautiful music in some of the most unusual tunings.
- The House of The Rising Sun - Traditional folk-blues. The Animals did a brilliant British R&B take on this ballad of a Cajun bordello, but here Stuart offers his solo guitar take on the trad legend.
- Moonlight Sonata - Beethoven's piano masterpiece. It's one of the most beautiful and recognisable pieces ever written. And it transfers brilliantly from piano to guitar, as Bridget demonstrates.
- Blues. Ronan McCullagh examines the playing of an undersung but brilliant blues-rock guitarist, Frank Marino of Mahogany Rush.
- Rock. Martin Cooper pays homage to AC/DC's king of rhythm and riffs, the great Malcolm Young.
- Jazz. John Wheatcroft celebrates the genius of the almost unbelievably gifted, Earl Klugh.
- Creative Rock. Shaun Baxter brings you another in his series examining the more unusual Pentatonic scales.
- Fretboard fluency. Martin Goulding guides you in that ongoing quest for perfect fretboard navigation.
- Slide guitar. Harrison Marsh meets another top slide player. This month the legend that is Elmore James.
- In The Woodshed. Charlie Griffiths offers more help with honing those vital guitar skills. This month: how to master playing in the 5/4 time signature.
