Billy Squier
GENERAL SERIES INFO:
This DVD contains a series of lessons from a regular
guy who is also a guitar teacher
with 30 years experience playing, writing and teaching. The goal was
to create a series of no-frills
instructional videos each of which are the equivalent of many individual private
lessons. The emphasis is on easy to follow lessons, light on ego and
flashy production techniques but full of instructional value: showing, teaching
and explaining rhythm and lead lines to some of
the worlds greatest classic rock tunes. This series of DVD's personalizes the
process and covers each
lesson completely through demonstrations, explanation
and close up views of the fingerings. You progress at your own pace -
playing easier parts first and picking up more each time you play it!
This DVD series includes lessons that are designed to benefit a wide ranges of ages and abilities. Good basic guitar abilities are a prerequisite of this series and it is gear toward a range within the intermediate category. Early intermediate students can find months of material to work on in each DVD - starting on easier songs and working up to the more difficult. The more experienced players may still find surprises in the easier material or just move more quickly to the more advanced details of the chords, riffs and leads. This series does NOT include any TAB or written material - its designed to teach thru visual and audio instruction and demonstration. By watching and playing along with guitar in hand, the student is also training his ear with the ultimate goal of being able to pick out songs on their own. (The series focus is on the fingering hand, while picking hand shots are included when deemed necessary, most basic strumming and individual note picking is understood at this level.)
NOTES ON BILLY SQUIER DVD:
Great guitar, riffs & songs!
This is not one of the more difficult DVDs and is not very lead intensive. It does have some very great well know guitar-based riffs and rock progressions and in my opinion is a truely great example of classic Marshall Crunch. Where AC/DC guitar sounds may scream Plexi or early JMP Marshall sound, I think Billy Squire's tone is pure early JCM800 sizzle (the true-tube models 2203/2204), which is one of my all-time favorite classic rock tones. That is the classic rock guitar tone that many a fortune was created on..
