The history, artists and playing techniques of the American folk blues. This book chronicles the most important male and female artists of the American folk blues, their life stories and their musical techniques. More than 30 full-length pieces as well as countless in-depth exercises for the modern acoustic guitarist. Complete and comprehensive treatment of each of these pioneers who together laid the cornerstone for the rock and pop music of today - from Charley Patton, Memphis Minnie and Mississippi John Hurt to Robert Johnson, Muddy Waters, John Lee Hooker and many more. Contemporary stars such as Ry Cooder, Bonnie Raitt and Eric Clapton, all of whom were deeply inspired by this music, are included as well.
