can give your
Blues and
Ragtime
playing real style and panache!
You can turn a simple blues or ragtime invention into something special by
having a solid stash of tags up your sleeve.
Tags are commonly used at the
beginning or end of blues and ragtime picking and also to turnaround
phrases or verses. You can easily get stuck in a rut using the same old
intros and outros, so I thought it about time to have a manual dedicated
just to tags which you can dip into and spice up your playing.
I've used four of the common keys to demonstrate tag examples. These areE G Aand
C. All
the tags can be transposed into different keys, and you are encouraged to
experiment and come up with your own variations.
So, if you want to grab the attention of
your audience and add real style to your playing, this is a must have
collection!
