Most of the longer rhythm riffs and solos follow the standard 12 bar blues form, so they are readily applicable to the many mandolin playing styles, including country, rock, jazz, and bluegrass, to name a few. To further deepen your mandolin skills, study the major, minor and blues scales and arpeggios as well as the library of mandolin chords and blues chord progressions in all 12 keys.

Book Description

From the bestselling author of The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat • Fascinating portraits of neurological disorder in which men, women, and one extraordinary child emerge as brilliantly adaptive personalities, whose conditions have not so much debilitated them as ushered them into another reality. Here are seven detailed narratives of neurological patients, including a surgeon consumed by the compulsive tics of Tourette's syndrome unless he is operating; an artist who loses all sense of color in a car accident, but finds a new sensibility and creative power in black and white; and an autistic professor who cannot decipher the simplest social exchange between humans, but has built a career out of her intuitive understanding of animal behavior. Sacks combines the well honed mind of an academician with the verve of a true storyteller.

Volume Two of the "Ultimate Collection" series continues with more music and instruction to help learn the three-string cigar box guitar tuned to GDG. The book covers a wide variety of material and is excellent for beginners to advanced players. There is a good selection of tunes including blues, rock, jazz, classical and traditional that can be played with a slide, a pick or just your fingers. As usual, each tune includes tablature and music notation for those familiar with reading music. There are an additional 18 songs with suggested chords and diagrams, strumming and fingerstyle patterns, time signatures, the starting singing note, and the key of the song. There are also some sample accompaniment patterns and useful tips on how to accompany on the cigar box guitar. If you are into rock and pop styles check out the "12 rock riffs" and the popular chord progressions with diagrams. The chord progressions are based on current pop/rock music and can be applied to your favorite songs. As in volume one of this series, a full chord and scale library with fingerboard charts are provided. The most common chords also have photos, a chord chart, and tablature and notation. The "10 ways to play major and minor chords" is an excellent way to learn and master the major and minor chords on the cigar box guitar!
