DADGAD is the kind of tuning that sparks the imagination. Put your fingers down on the fingerboard and suddenly a new musical world opens up. More and more guitarists are discovering the powerful harmonies and rich chord formations that become magically available in DADGAD, and this video is your logical next step in understanding and mastering this popular guitar tuning.
Artie Traum helps bring your guitar to life by showing you DADGAD applications in traditional mountain ballads, fingerstyle blues and contemporary songs. He starts out at a basic level, with the well known Appalachian song "East Virginia Blues". DADGAD tuning gives it that mysterious "model" sound, neither major nor minor, that characterizes so many wonderful songs in this genre.
The classical tune "KC Moan" and a haunting Skip James Blues move you firmly into "advanced beginner" territory with invaluable tips on fingerstyle technique and some exciting blues licks and progressions. Artie's original songs "Niagara" and "Serpa", feature more complex fingerpicking techniques and chord changes. To close the lesson, you'll learn how you can use DADGAD to discover new musical ideas on your own through experimentation with chord shapes, harmonies and progressions.

| Birth Of The Groove: R&B, Soul, And Funk Guitar: 1945-1965
87 pages, Item 1300514EU, $19.99
The years 1945-1965 saw a radical and exciting shift in American popular music. Blues and swing jazz helped to produce a new musical form called rhythm & blues, which in turn set in motion the development of soul, not to mention rock&roll. What united these genres was an emphasis on the beat, or the "groove" over the melody, that would culminate in the syncopated monochord workouts of funk. Along the way, some of the greatest electric guitarists of the postwar years explored the boundaries of the new instrument with a rich array of hot licks. In this book/CD collection, you will find the cream of the crop with notation and tablature of each song, as well as notes on the development of the artist and their music. Plus, CD accompaniment recordings and samples for you to hear and play along with. So get loose, get down, and get ready to jam! |  | |
