Description
Here’s the ultimate course in Jorma Kaukonen’s unique and influential blues and country guitar finguerpicking style. These lessons are filled with wisdom, advice and invaluable skills for pickers at all levels.
You’ll learn five traditional and original songs, each one becoming a springboard for important musical information that will be applicable to any songs you want to play. An experienced and inspiring instructor, Jorma teaches at a leisurely pace, taking care to point out all the possible variations that will enable you to make each song your own.
JOrma reviews the chord positions needed for each song, slowing them down phrase-by-phrase so that even relative beginners will be able to play the piece with some practice. He discusses his alternate bass thumb work and adds runs, bens, double-stops, bass walk-ups, blues licks, turnarounds, endings and ornamental notes to enhance your fingerpicking and blues arrangements.
Each song features a dynamic live performance by Jorma and Barry Mitterhoff.

Jorma Kaukonen started out as an acoustic fingerpicker before becoming a rock legend as lead guitarist for the Jefferson Airplane and Hot Tuna. (He and the Airplane were included into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1995). Jorma has released more than two-dozens albums, both solo and in various groups. In recent years, he has been pursuing the acoustic blues and country fingerpicking styles that he has always loved best. A lifelong interest in teaching has resulted in several Homespun instructional videos.

TAYLOR MARTIN, FINGERSTYLE JAZZ GUITAR. Georgia -take five -I got rhythm -old man river -the dolphin. Running time: 64 minutes, Booklet 57 pages. TABLATURE DVD

"One of the great virtuosi of his instrument, producing torrents of the hardly possible without spilling any perspiration. However, behind the racing brain and apparently 16 fingers is a mind that loves the evocative beauty in a good melody and can spread it out shimmering, like no-one else." 
Guitar International

"Martin Taylor is one of the greatest and most impressive guitar players in the world."
Chet Atkins

Martin Taylor has been playing guitar for as long as he can remember, ever since his father gave him his first instrument at the age of four. It was to be the start of a career which has delighted audiences worldwide and drawn critical acclaim from some of the world's finest musicians.
He turned pro in 1964 at the age of eight - at least that's when his playing earned him a penny whistle from an appreciative music shop owner. By age 11 Martin had his first electric guitar, Guild Starfire, and was listening intently to the recordings of pianists Bill Evans and Art Tatum as well guitarists Barbey Kessel, Kenny Burrell, and Wes Montgomery. He left school when he was 15, and has earned his living with a guitar ever since. 

Chet Atkins, Barney Kessel, John Williams, Joe Pass, Stephane Grappelli, Toots Thielmans, Yehudi Menuhin, David Grisman, Bill Wyman are just some of the musicians who have collaborated with Martin. 

"The obvious impetus for playing fingerstyle guitar is the ability to combine bass lines, chords and melody simultaneously, effectively creating the impression of several musicians playing together. But unless you've already heard Martin Taylor, you've never experienced it quite like this. In Martin's playing, the three elements are so well integrated that the music transcends the technique. But you won't miss the details of his touch. Tight left-hand positions move with the precision of a servomotor; each digit appearing to have a mind of its own, but playing in perfect harmony with the others. Arrangements fly off his fingers in such a seemingly effortless manner that they create the illusion of accessibility" (Fingerstyle Guitar Magazine).

In this unique video lesson Martin explains how to play a bass-guitar duet on a single instrument and how to accomplish this without sacrificing the feel and swing of the music. Martin Taylor is the master of this approach and demonstrates his style and technique with five classic jazz standards.

Titles include: I Got Rhythm, Georgia, Old Man River, Take Five and The Dolphin.

ROCK POP for guitar

LIBRO PER CHITARRA CON TABLATURE

Product Description:

Ten songs for acoustic guitar that sound like they've been written for Aerosmith, Celine Dion, Metallica, Alanis Morissette, etc. You can either expand your solo repertoire by playing the etudes unaccompanied, or play along with the tracks on the enclosed CD and get valuable experience practicing in a band situation. For each etude, the author includes preliminary technical exercises for the right and left hands to help eliminate any technical difficulties you may encounter. For the more adventurous or advanced player, the author provides the scales or notes from the songs which can be used for a few years. Those who have been playing longer can have fun with improvisation and chordal accompaniment. In notation and tablature.

Forword
Welcome to the second volume of Rock Pop Studies for
acoustic guitar. Again we have ten studies from ten of the
world's greatest pop stars: from Celine Dion to Eagle Eye
Cherry to Aerosmith. You can either expand your solo
repertoire by playing the etudes unaccompanied, or play
along with the tracks on the enclosed CD and get
valuable experience practicing in a band situation.
I hope again, through the varied working methods in this
book, to be able to offer something to guitarists of every
level. Slowly played, these studies could be the first solo
pieces for someone who has been playing guitar for a
few years. Those who have been playing longer can
have fun with improvisation and chordal accompaniment.
Here I would like to thank AMA Publishing, Konni, and
Juergen Kumlehn, whose skillfull programming of the
playbacks will help guitarists everywhere make the most
of these songs.

Vorwort
Willkommen beim zweiten Band der Rock-Pop-EWden
fUr akustische Gitarre. Wieder standen zehn PopgrbBen
Pate fUr zehn weitere EWden: von Celine Dion Ober
Eagle Eye Cherry bis hin zu Aerosmith. Solo oder mit
dem Play-back auf der beiliegenden CD bieten diese
EWden eine hervorragende Mbglichkeit, das Solorepertoire
zu erweitern oder Erfahrungen im Zusammenspiel
mit einer Band (CD) zu machen.
Durch die verschiedenen Arbeitsmbglichkeiten, die
dieses Buch bietet, hoffe ich wieder, viele Gitarristinnen
und Gitarristen auf unterschiedlichstem Niveau anzusprechen.
Wer ein bis zwei Jahre Gitarre spielt, der findet
hier schon die ersten SolosWcke, wenn auch vielleicht
langsamer gespielt als auf der CD. Diejenigen, die schon
langer musizieren, werden ihre Freude neben den EtOden
auch mit der Akkordbegleitung oder Improvisation haben.
An dieser Stelle mein Dank an den AMA Verlag, an Konni
und an JOrgen Kumlehn, der wiederum wunderbare Playbacks
programmiert hat, so dass viele Gitarristinnen und
Gitarristen aufs neue Neue viel SpaB an den Songs haben
werden.
 

How To Use This Book
For all of those who didn't read, or more accurately, didn't
play through the first volume of Rock Pop Studies for
Guitar, here are a few tips for using this book.
Try playing the studies alone on the guitar. If you can
read music, use the music provided. Otherwise you can
try the tabulature notation. You can play along with the
band or the CD. Unfortunately, we couldn't send the band
along with this book, the drums were too heavy!
For each etude I've included preliminary technical
exercises for the right and left hands to help eliminate
any technical difficulties you may encounter. We've
printed chord diagrams and the harmony for each song
before each study. So, for example, if you can't
remember how to play Bm7, just look at the diagrams
above the music. We've also listed many different ways
to playa chord, an F for example, so that you can start
collecting them for your musical future. Most chords are
kept to three- or four-part voicings. Maybe we'll see
Fmaj7/9 # 11 the next time!
Lastly, for the more adventurous, we've provided the
scale or notes from the song which can be used for
improvisation. There is a great deal of literature available
for learning improvisation. In this book we want to
concentrate on fully utilizing the playbacks. Try improvising
using the given scales. You can notate your own
improvised melodies on the tab and music paper
provided after the tab version of each song.
If something doesn't work the first time, try it again a few
times. This is called practice, a word we sometimes fear.
Let me help you to enjoy practicing with these studies!

Was kann man mit diesem
Buch machen?
Fur aile, die den ersten Band nicht gelesen, oder besser
gesagt, nicht gespielt haben - bitte schnell nachholen -
gebe ich hier noch einmal ein paar Arbeitshinweise oder
besser Spielhinweise, weil an dieser Stelle das Wort
Arbeit merkwurdig klingt.
Zunachst kannst du die EtUden einfach nur solo spielen.
Wer die Notenschrift beherrscht, nimmt die Notenversion,
dagegen konnen die anderen die Tabulaturnotation benutzen.
Dann kannst du das Ganze mit Band bzw. CD
spielen. Wir haben leider keine Band beilegen konnen,
das Schlagzeug war einfach zu groB.
Damit die EtUden keine technischen Probleme bereiten,
werden in kurzen Vorubungen fUr die linke und die rechte
Hand die Schwierigkeiten der jeweiligen StUcke vorweggenommen.
Weiterhin gibt es Akkorddiagramme der
einzelnen Songs, deren Akkordablaufe direkt darunter
stehen. Falls also einem Hm7 wieder nicht einfallt, Augen
einfach nach oben. Die Akkorde habe ich, wie zum
Beispiel bei F-Dur, verschiedenartig dargestellt und du
kannst dich freuen, denn in deiner gitarristischen Zukunft
wird es hundert weitere Moglichkeiten geben F-Dur zu
greifen. Da ich in diesem Buch niemanden verwirren
mochte, habe ich mich meist auf Drei- bzw. Vierklange
beschrankt. Fj7/91,l11 gibt es dann nachstes Mal - vielleicht.
Um die Transparenz in dem zweisprachigen Buch
zu erhalten, wird, auBer im Text, bei Tonen und Akkorden
die internationale Bezeichnung (v. a. h= b und b = bb)
verwendet.
Zuletzt werden noch fUr die Mutigen immer einige Tone
des Songs notiert, die sich zur Improvisation eignen. Zum
Erlernen der Improvisation erschien bereits sehr viel
Literatur. In diesem Buch soil Flber nur die Moglichkeit
geschaffen werden, die Play-backs in ihren Funktionen
voll auszunutzen. Probiere einfach, mit den vorgegebenen
Tonleitern zu improvisieren. Hinter der Tabulatur
findest du wieder ein freies Noten- und Tabulaturblatt, auf
dem du improvisierte Melodien aufschreiben kannst.
So lite das Eine oder Andere nicht gleich auf Anhieb
funktionieren, wiederhole es ofters. Wir benutzen dafUr in
der Musik das grassliche Wort "uben". Aber wenn schon
uben, dann mit SpaB, und den hoffe ich mit diesen
Rock-Pop-EtUden erneut vermitteln zu haben.
 

"Little Alanis", Alanis Morissette, was already performing
on American TV at the age of ten. At the tender age of
eleven she precociously took the money she had made
performing and financed her first single, "Fate Stay With
Me", which sold 2000 copies. Ten years later Flea and
Dave Navarro, the string virtuosos from the Red Hot Chili
Peppers played on her 1995 album "Jagged Little Pill",
and on the hit single "You Oughta Know". With this song
and "Ironic" she had two smash hits.
We would like to honor this exceptional career with
LITTLE ALANIS, the last and most difficult study in this
volume. The rhythm and some of the guitar voicings are
not easy. That's why it's good that there are preliminary
exercises and a CD to listen to. Bar five, which begins
with a pickup, is studied in a left- and right-hand exercise.
When you understand both studies, apply the finger
positions to bar five. Bar 17 is also not easy. There is also
a left- and right-hand exercise for this bar. Separating the
left and right hands is generally a good way to overcome
difficulties. Often it's not the left but the right hand which
causes the problems in difficult sections. Be careful with
the right hand because it's responsible for your tone.
Have fun switching between your left and right hands,
and of course with LITTLE ALANIS!

Bereits mit zehn Jahren schauspielerte die "kleine Alanis",
Alanis Morissette, im amerikanischen Fernsehen. 1m
zarten Alter von elf Jahren nahm sie wie selbstverstandlich
das mit dieser Rolle verdiente Geld und
bezahlte damit ihre erste Singleaufnahme. "Fate Stay
With Me" hieB dieser Song und verkaufte sich immerhin
2000-mal. Zehn Jahre spater, 1995, zupften auf ihrer CD
"Jagged Little Pill" schon die Saitenvirtuosen der Red Hot
Chili Peppers, Flea und Dave Navarro, und zwar auf der
Hitsingle "You Oughta Know". Mit diesem Song und mit
"Ironic" erzielte sie zwei groBe Erfolge.
Diese sprunghafte Karriere wurdigen wir mit LITTLE
ALANIS, der letzten und zugleich wohl auch schwersten
EtUde in diesem Band. Der Rhythmus wie auch manche
Griffverbindungen sind nicht einfach. Wie gut, dass es
Vorubungen und eine CD gibt, auf der man sich dieses
StUck anhbren kann. Zu Takt 5, der mit einem Auftakt
beginnt, findst du jeweils eine Vorubung fOr die linke wie
fOr die rechte Hand. Wenn du jede fOr sich verstanden
hast, ubertrage die Fingersatze auf Takt 5. Auch Takt 17
ist nicht leicht. Hierfur hast du ebenfalls zwei Vorubungen,
eine fOr die Iinke und eine fOr die rechte Hand.
Die Trennung beider Hande ist generell eine gute
Methode, um gitarristische Schwierigkeiten in den "Griff"
zu bekommen. Haufig sorgt nicht die linke, sondern die
rechte Hand bei schwierigen Stellen fOr Unruhe.
AuBerdem macht die rechte Hand den Ton und
deswegen sollte man sie schon mal gesondert betrachten.
Dann viel SpaB beim Hin- und Herschauen
zwischen linker und rechter Hand und natUrlich bei
LITTLE ALANIS!
