Jazz Guitar • Jazz Blues Solos

Jazz Blues Guitar Solos is for an experienced guitarist that has intermediate, or better, skills. The solos are of performance quality and the improvisations are from a variety of standard blues tunes.

Whether you are a rock, folk, country or urban blues guitarist, the solos will help to develop your phrasing, familiarity with the fingerboard, enhanced conceptual abilities and a vastly improved ear.

Two solos are written for each tune in standard notation and tablature. The first solo defines the melody with some decoration and the second shows how a jazz pro might “stretch-out” over a progression.

The song selections are not confined to 12-bar blues, but would all be considered “bluesy” in flavor, or lead to a bluesy interpretation.

The definition of “blues” is much broader among jazz musicians than it is within the narrower parameters of rock and roll or country music.
