Why read it?

1 author picked The Complete Blues & Ragtime Guitar Player as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?

When I started playing guitar, all I wanted to do was play the blues. Why a working-class Scottish boy would be so entranced by music so culturally and geographically remote is curious even to me but this book gave me a way in, a key to unlock the skills required to emulate the sounds of the blues greats I loved to hear. As an autodidact, clear explanations, technical advice, and background information were essential to my development and I still use this book with students to this day. 

From Jamie's list on to help you be great at guitar.
