It is often said that rhythm is the driving force of any music. In either case, rhythm is certainly an integral musical element much like, melody and harmony. The guitar is the instrument providing this rhythm especially in Rock, Jazz, Rhythm, and Blues.

The rhythm guitarist has an important role as the most celebrated lead guitarist in any band. In understanding this fact, Teach Yourself Rhythm Guitar by Paul J. Newman provides a comprehensive approach to learning “how to fill” that essential “Rhythm” role.

The explanations of musical notation, rhythm, styles of rhythm, and technique are detailed and could certainly fill a book of their own.

Some of the material we’ve touched upon is covered in greater detail in specialized editions such as Teach Yourself Scales & Modes, Teach Yourself Chords & Progressions, and Teach Yourself Lead Guitar.
