The 12-Bar Blues, Start to Finish

The one form every guitarist should own. Nine lessons take you from counting twelve bars in A, through dominant chords, the shuffle feel, the minor pentatonic box and the blue note, to moving the whole thing into a new key, playing a minor blues, and finally peeking at the jazz reharmonisation. Every lesson ends on a real backing track so you play the idea instead of just reading about it.
