If youâ??re wanting to add a bit of jazzy sophistication to your acoustic blues playing, look no further than the playing of the three legendary artists featured in this lesson â?? Lonnie Johnson, Teddy Bunn, and Scrapper Blackwell.

While the structures of these numbers by-and-large follow the trusty old 12-bar blues, diminished seventh chords, ninth chords, and chromatic passing tones abound! Additionally, each number provides ample opportunities to refine your use of dynamics, articulation, phrasing, and other nuances that are guaranteed to enhance your acoustic blues musicality.

Ben Gateno leads the way by performing each tune at speed and slowed down, all with crystal clear focus on each hand. Ben explains in detail how to learn and practice each selection so youâ??re not only putting your fingers in the correct places but lifting the music off the page and bringing it to life!
