For Those About to Rock...
Before there was rock, there was Rock 'n' Roll - an exciting, new style that outraged traditionalists and earned a reputation as rebellious, dangerous, and even "the music of the devil"!
Rock 'n' Roll Guitar wasn't just a collection of licks and riffs - it was a sound, feel, and a way of playing that blew up popular music and defined a generation practically overnight.
So to truly understand the roots of modern rock and pop, it's essential to master the art of Rock 'n' Roll guitar.
The Rock 'n' Roll Guitar Book is a deep dive into the art, heritage and culture of the music. You'll discover the styles of the Rock 'n' Roll pioneers, including:
T-Bone Walker Muddy Waters Bo Diddley Chuck Berry Carl Perkins Cliff Gallup Danny Cedrone Scotty Moore Buddy Holly Tommy Allsup Eddie Cochran Roy Orbison James Burton Link Wray Duane Eddy Dick Dale The Ventures Hank Marvin
You'll take a comprehensive look at every influential artist while learning the chronology of Rock 'n' Roll: From Blues and Swing to Rockabilly, Surf, Instrumental, Twang and beyond...
