Perfect and fast as usual. Book is fantastic, every guitar player should get it. Interesting and detailed, easy to play

Hubby loves it, as usual!

Un excelente y completo compendio sobre el trabajo de uno de los guitarristas esenciales, para la Historia del Jazz y de la guitarra en general. Tablatura, notación standard y un CD con todos las transcripciones perfectamente ejecutadas de clásicos como "Solo Flight", "Air Mail Special", "Stardust", etc. Creo que va a ser uno de los manuales con los que voy a trabajar/disfrutar más a menudo!Llegó en el tiempo previsto y era el producto que esperaba (aunque, como de costumbre, la información detallada sobre ese libro tuve que conseguirla en Amazon.com, ya que la sede española aún adolece de escased de reseñas). Todo perfecto.

~ This package, like all issues in the Hall Leonard "Signature Licks" series, contains informative introduction to the history, equipment, and style of Charlie Christian, transcriptions and detailed analysis of each transcription (all by Wolf Marshall), and a CD by an in-house quartet that demonstrates the transcriptions.~ The 64-page book/CD package contains the songs listed below. The majority of Charlie Christian's recordings are collected on the invaluable 4-CD box set  The Genius of the Electric Guitar (Deluxe Box Set) ; so I have listed the CD and track number within that box set that corresponds to the transcription. In addition, there is a companion DVD available  Charlie Christian Featuring Andy Aledort , which includes some of the tunes; I have indicated which tunes are included in the instructional DVD. Note that the DVD is not by Wolf Marshall, it is by Andy Aledort; therefore, there are some minor differences between the transcriptions/CD and the DVD. Finally, I have also added notes that hopefully will be helpful to people thinking about purchasing this book/CD combo.* Air Mail Special ..... head, guitar solo, outro riff CD: "Genius" Disc#3 Track#8 (alt take Track#23) - also on DVD* Benny's Bugle ..... head, guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#2 Track#12 - also on DVD* Gone With 'What' Wind ..... 2 chorus guitar solo, ensemble riffs #1, #2, #3 CD: "Genius" Disc#1 Track#11 (alt take Track#22) - also on DVD* Good Enough To Keep (Air Mail Special) ..... guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#2 Track#2 (alt takes Track#17 & #18)* Grand Slam ..... intro, head, guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#1 Track#16 (alt take Track#25) - also on DVD* Honeysuckle Rose ..... guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#4 Track#2* I've Found A New Baby (I Found A New Baby) ..... guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#3 Track#5 (alt take Track#18)* Seven Come Eleven ..... head, bridge, guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#1 Track#6 - also on DVD* Shivers ..... intro, head, guitar solo, riff CD: "Genius" Disc#1 Track#7 (alt take Track#21) - also on DVD* Six Appeal ..... guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#2 Track#1 (alt takes Track#14 & #15 & #16)* A Smooth One ..... intro, head, guitar solo, outro riff CD: "Genius" Disc#3 Track#7 (alt takes Track#21 & #22)* Solo Flight ..... intro, 3 chorus guitar solo, bridge, 1 chorus guitar solo, interlude, 1 chorus guitar solo, coda CD: "Genius" Disc#4 Track#7 - also on DVD* Stardust ..... guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#1 Track#3* Till Tom Special ..... head, comping during clarinet solo, guitar solo, ensemble riff #1, comping during vibes solo, guitar solo, ensemble riff #2 CD: "Genius" Disc#1 Track#10 - also on DVD* Wholly Cats ..... intro, head, guitar solo CD: "Genius" Disc#2 Track#8 & #9 (alt takes Track#19 & #20 & #21)~ The transcriptions in regular musical notation as well as tab notation appear to be accurate and provide considerable insight into Charlie's chord voicing as well his single-note line development.~ Highly recommended to any intermediate or advanced guitarist who wants to gain insight into the improvisational melodic and chordal style of the father of all jazz guitarists (and many blues and rock guitarists).
