Book Reviews of Mel Bay Taylor, Martin: Guitar Method Book/CD Set
Book Review: Master Shares Knowledge
Summary: 5 Stars
Anyone who is serious about playing guitar will know of Martin Taylor, Britain's best known jazz guitar virtuoso. In this book, Taylor shares large chunks of his ideas about how to approach soloing, with special emphasis on piecing together the various aspects of melody, harmony and rhythm. It is assumed the student has some basic grounding in music theory. This is NOT a book for beginners, although an enthusiastic beginner will find it interesting. Taylor writes in an informal and friendly manner which makes the text highly readable; almost as if he were there in the room with you. For me, studying this book is an important step on my journey toward guitar mastery. If you are seeking some major hints and tips about harmonizing melody with chords and bass lines, if you want advice on left and right hand techniques, if you want to advance your knowledge of the fingerboard and emulate Taylor's expertise I urge you to get to work with this set of lessons right NOW!
