Hurt, Willie Brown, Skip James, Blind Blake and the Reverend Robert Wilkins.

standard and open tunings, treble melodies, bass runs, slides, string bends,
harmonics and dynamic strumming styles. Rory also gets you started on
improvisation by providing a number of variations on the intros, solos and
endings of the pieces.
Here are the classic tunes you.ll soon be playing: "Old Country Rock,"
"Statesboro Blues," "Big Road Blues," "Canned Heat," "Walkin. Blues," "Cross
Road Blues," "Frankie and Albert," "Future Blues," "M&O Blues," "Police Dog
Blues," "Devil Got My Man," "Mississippi Blues," "Ain.t No Way for Me to Get
Along."
