Master Guitarist Fred Sokolow teaches the basics, tuning up and playing simple chords, then moves into fingerpicking patterns, licks and grooves that work for the blues, country, rock, folk and other musical styles. Sokolow's 70-minute lesson covers chords and licks in five keys; connecting "bass runs" in all five keys; simultaneous melodies and alternating thumb-bass; and fun tunes including "Sloop John B" and "St. James Infirmary Blues."
