John Lee Hooker Guitar Signature Licks PDF. A Step-by-Step Breakdown of His Guitar Styles and Techniques (Guitar Signature Licks) by Dave Rubin. Explore the earthy blues of inimitable guitar legend John Lee Hooker with this book/online audio pack!
This book/CD package contains an informative brief biography, a discussion of the equipment used by John Lee Hooker, transcriptions and detailed analysis of each transcription, and a CD that demonstrates the transcriptions (all by Dave Rubin). In addition, there is a list of recommended John Lee Hooker CDs. Considering the confusing jumble of John Lee Hooker reissues available, the listing is extremely helpful.
The 64-page book contains transcriptions of selected segments of the 14 songs listed below in standard musical notation and tab formation. Perhaps the most beneficial component of the book is that each song has a detailed discussing of the tuning used (which varies from song to song) and recommended fingering for both the fret-board hand and the picking/strumming hand. Highly recommended to intermediate and advanced level students of blues guitar.
