Hal Leonard's Rockabilly Guitar is a comprehensive instructional DVD by studio session guitarist, Troy Dexter. Rockabilly styles are presented in easy-to-understand examples that are repeated in slow motion and in a close-up, detailed view. Chord voicings and the use of scales endemic to Rockabilly are shown. There are examples of the third and fifth intervals and whole tone scales.
Dexter goes on further by demonstrating chromatic lead-ins, horn stab riffs, chord raking, vibrato bar techniques, bends, slides and shuffle rhythms--all a big part of this fun-sounding genre.
To put a historical perspective into your learning, the styles of Carl Perkins, Brian Setzer, Eddie Cochran, Duane Eddy and Scotty Moore, who brought his distinctive style to the early recordings of Elvis Presley, are dissected and studied. Finally, Dexter covers sonic effects such as tremolo, echo, reverb and distortion and how well known Rockabilly players use them.
With accompanying booklet with easy-to-follow notation and diagrams mirroring the DVD, Rockabilly Guitar sells for $14.95 MSRP making this is an excellent instructional DVD for guitarists interested in Rockabilly guitar. Hal Leonard publications are available through Music Dispatch at www.musicdispatch.com or at: 800-637-2852.
