Matt Brandt - Jump Blues - 2 DVD Set
Cult figure, rock & roll legend and music writer, Cub Koda defined jump blues as “an up-tempo, jazz-tinged style of blues that first came to prominence in the mid to late '40s. Usually featuring a vocalist in front of a large, horn-driven orchestra or medium sized combo with multiple horns, the style is earmarked by a driving rhythm, intensely shouted vocals, and honking tenor saxophone solos – all of those very elements a precursor to rock & roll. The lyrics are almost always celebratory in nature, full of braggadocio and swagger.” This 2-DVD set is presented as a complete methodology covering theory, comping, accompanist riffs, horn lines arranged for guitar, and several approaches for soloing drilling down on many approaches for opening up the neck for the scales, arpeggios and riffs that are employed in "swing" and "jump blues" guitar. It also ices the cake with 12 tasty solos, followed by in-depth analysis of several jump blues giants such as Brian Setzer, T-Bone Walker, Charlie Christian, Gatemouth Brown and Freddie King, all of whom have their own signature sound. Accompanying vocalists and soloists is a big part of the style and is as challenging and rewarding as soloing. A sizable chunk of these DVDs are dedicated to voicings, pulling off various rhythms, and locking up with the rhythm section. Hands-on learning tools included with "Jump Blues" are: text lesson guide, chord charts, practice rhythm tracks, as well as bonus material.  Secure PIN enclosed in DVD package for quick and secure download of learning tools!

Brad Carlton - CAGED Cracked For Guitar - DVD
T
op session player Brad Carlton presents CAGED Cracked - a unique and highly effective system for fretboard navigation, chord selection and improvisation! The CAGED system goes well beyond alternate chord voicings by also serving as a springboard for comping, soloing and improvising in any key. You'll start off learning just five moveable chord forms and a system for quickly identifying roots and other strong tones. You'll then learn how to quickly see and overlay intervals, arpeggios, pentatonics and other scale forms - all of them also moveable to any key. Next, you'll get a grip on handy inversions of the chord forms to connect the dots between the forms and add texture to the harmony. Then the fun begins as you put your big bag of moveable chords, arpeggios and scale forms to work to comp, solo and improvise over any changes, in any key, in any fretboard position! You'll also learn how to put in fills and instantly connect strong tones across even the most complicated changes to form seamless melodic lines and compositions. CAGED Cracked unlocks the improvisational firepower of the CAGED system for rhythm work, fills, solos and melodies as well. The ultimate "rut-buster" for intermediate and advanced players alike, CAGED Cracked quickly transforms every aspect of your playing from black & white to color! Hands-on learning tools included with CAGED Cracked: text lesson guide, chord charts, practice rhythm tracks and bonus material.

David Hamburger - Blues Alchemy - 2 DVD Set
Transform Your Leaden Licks into Improvisational Gold! 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! Hands-on learning tools included with "Blues Alchemy" are: text lesson guide, chord charts, practice rhythm tracks, as well as bonus material.  Secure PIN enclosed in DVD package for quick and secure download of learning tools!
