Grossman Country Blues Guitar

Country Blues Guitar styles span a wide horizon. In these three
lessons the ideas and techniques of Rev. Gary Davis, Charley Jordan,
Tommy Johnson and Mississippi John Hurt are presented. The
arrangements vary from alternating bass to a Delta strum to a
monotonic bass. In notation and tablature with three compact discs
featuring 3 full hours of note-by-note, phrase-by-phrase instruction.
LESSON ONE: Rev. Davis's Cocaine Blues and You Got The Pocket Book, I
Got The Key both played in the key of C and in what Rev. Davis called
old fashion pickin'. The popular blues Crow Jane played in the key
of E.
LESSON TWO: Charley Jordan's Keep It Clean and Hunkie Tunkie Blues
both played in the key of E and presenting Jordan's unusual blues
approach. Tommy Johnson's Canned Heat played in dropped D tuning.

monotonic bass. We follow this with Mississippi John Hurt's Monday
Morning Blues also played in the key of A but using an alternating
bass.
