More than riffs, so much more.
I have played guitar for many years and always loved blues music, but have always had a hard time creating any. It is a deceptively simple art form, much like a language that has few words, but much hidden meaning. This book acts to help you learn the language, rather than simply teaching a few phrases to help a tourist find the train station. It is the beginning of a process, and it takes work, but the audio examples and the logical progression of learning make it much more accessible.
