Larry Carlton's 335 BLUES
Interactive Video Software Course on CD-ROM
Larry Carlton's 335 BLUES Interactive Video Software Course 335 BLUES, Larry’s first course in twenty years, imparts Carlton’s philosophical, technical
and musical approach in a genre rich with expression and improvisation - the blues. Presented by TrueFire, 335 BLUES features 80 full-length interactive
video lessons, text overviews, practice rhythm tracks, standard notation and interactive Power Tab so you can "see" and "hear" the tab
and notation played out at any tempo. TrueFire's video lesson player features zoom, frame advance, looping and other handy controls.
You will play your way through a series of blues grooves in a variety of feels, keys and tempos. For each groove, Carlton demonstrates
three choruses worth of comping and three choruses of improvisational soloing. Each performance is followed by an explanation of what he p
layed and more importantly, why he played it.
Carlton also drills down on essential techniques and improvisational approaches. Bending and vibrato are demonstrated
and broken down in unprecedented detail. Use of motifs, space and phrasing are likewise presented in an amazing, ear-opening fashion.
Other gems of insight in this section include use of the melodic minor in blues, “knuckle voicings” and recommendations for how to approach both
practice and playing.

BLUES ALCHEMY
TrueFire's
Blues Alchemy is about learning to play the changes, but not in the sense
that jazz musicians do – it isn’t about learning every arpeggio and mode
under the sun. Instead, on ten diverse chord progressions, master blues
alchemist David Hamburger will teach you how to transform your blues bag
into gold by learning how to target tones and "play the changes."
