DVD Reviews of Ronnie Earl: Blues Guitar With Soul

DVD Review: A must buy for all blues-rock players
Summary: 5 Stars

This Hot Licks dvd is just great. There is a slow motion lesson feature that adds a lot to the lesson. The split screen is great and production value is............ great.
Ronnie Earl is unique. He is a very humble man and down to earth. His advice is direct and has a great teaching style. There is a soloing exercise that he says to get the most out of 3 notes, he just ripped it up and always concentrating on playing with "feeling and soul." Another bit of advice was to increase your chord vocabulary to make your playing more interesting. His inside tips of playing 6th's, 9th's, 13's, and richer voicings is musical gold. Yet, there isn't any snobbery going on, it is an experienced master guitarist, with a humble attitude, sharing what blues is to him. He references many, many guitarists through the dvd and teaches their styles and how to make your own style.
This is the best guitar dvd I have seen, and I have seen quite a few. It's pretty simple, well presented, and not super technical like most of the music school videos. Anyone interested in learning anyone's style of blues should get this dvd. There is so much in shuffle, 12 bar, turnarounds, phrasing, right hand technique, and single note pentatonics that it would become foundational information for the student.
Man, I'm excited that I have this dvd!! Every exercise is available at half speed with pitch correction. I've been a player for many years and I only get better by "cutting" up tunes and learning a piece at a time. This is going to be a great tool in my development, I wish I bought it earlier.

DVD Review: Great for intermediate players
Summary: 5 Stars

This DVD is a terrific learning tool for the intermediate level guitar players. Definitely not for beginners. His style is soulful minimalist approach, and creating the variety of sounds is the key rather than blazing through a lot of notes. If you like that rootsy blues sound, and want to learn how to play in that style -- get this DVD. If you like Robben Ford / Eric Clapton (excluding From the Cradle / Mr. Johnson) styles (at least their well known songs), this is not the right direction.

DVD Review: Excellent DVD
Summary: 5 Stars

This is one DVD that you will definitely want to add to your resource library. Ronnie Earl is an excellent guitarist and instructor, and he covers a wide range of very interesting and easy to learn styles. Ronnie Earl is one of the most versatile guitarists on the scene, and it comes across in the material. Regardless to your skill level, you will benefit from the DVD. Whether you're interested in country style, electric blues, swing, or in continuing to build an awesome chord repertoire, this is one that you will definitely want.

DVD Review: Ronnie Earl, Blues Guitar with soul
Summary: 5 Stars

Having seen Ronnie play twice in the past year, I was delighted to discover this DVD. It was perfect for me , a blues loving intermediate guitarist. Although he plays a Strat on the DVD, most of it works quite well for acoustic guitar as well. The emphasis is on chord progressions, and some of the voicings he uses. There isn't much time devoted to soloing, and the licks that he plays don't make it into the helpful tab book. I've had this for about 6 weeks now, and feel like my playing has gone up about 2 levels, and at about half the cost of a lesson, it was money well spent

DVD Review: Excellent value
Summary: 5 Stars

Ronnie knows the blues and knows how to teach it. He breaks it down into manageable building blocks. Ronnie doesn't need a band - just his foot and a guitar. He seamlessly switches from playing rhythm to fills and back while keeping the groove. This is one of the gems in the Hot Licks series.
