Blind Blake - The Guitar Of Blind Blake - DVD
Taught by Woody Mann. Blind Blake was the premier ragtime blues guitarist of the 1920s. He extended the alternating bass style, that was popular at the turn of the century, to encompass the dance trends and more complex blues ideas that were emerging from the jazz bands of New Orleans and Chicago. His playing featured unique right hand thumb rolls that evoked the feel of the Charleston dance-step. Blind Blake's playing influenced generations of country blues guitarists and was never equaled. In this unique video lesson, Woody Mann explores the ideas, techniques and styles of this legendary guitarist. Tunes include: "Diddie Wa Diddie, Chump Man Blues, Police Dog Blues, That Will Never Happen No More, Black Dog Blues, Blind Arthur's Breakdown".

Blind Blake - The Ragtime & Blues Guitar Of Blind Blake - 2 DVD Set
Blind Blake's recordings, made in the 1920s and 1930s, set a standard for ragtime blues guitar virtuosity that remains unmatched. His famous "double-thumb" right-hand technique is part of a syncopated sound that is unlike that of any other guitarist. His recordings, with their rhythmic drive and ingenious variations, remain a source of endless delight (as well as frustration) for today's acoustic blues guitarists. In this double DVD set Ari Eisinger explains and demonstrates two key components of Blind Blake's style: his right-hand technique and his unique chord progressions. He then provides detailed demonstrations of eight of Blake's guitar breaks and accompaniments from some of his best recordings. These include the well-known songs and instrumentals Rope Stretchin' Blues and the amazing (and amazingly fast) Southern Rag, as well as the wonderful, but often overlooked, Baby Lou Blues and Tootie Blues. The lesson provides both an introduction to Blake's style and a detailed demonstration of some of his most advanced instrumental breaks. In addition the original old recordings of all the tunes are included. Songs include: "Guitar Chimes, Baby Lou Blues, Rope Stretchin’ Blues, Tootie Blues, Stonewall Street Blues, Too Tight #2 and Southern Rag"
