How to Practice the Blues - Book + Workbook, 90 pages

Most guitarists don't have a technique problem. They have a listening problem.

This isn't another book of scales, chords, or soloing systems — I've already written those. This one is about what happens once you've got the material in front of you: how you actually practice it, what you listen for while you play, and why the same routines can either build real feel or just become muscle memory with nothing behind it.

Eleven chapters work through this directly — not as rules, but as a way of paying attention to your own playing that most practice routines skip entirely. No rating scales, no box-ticking, no "did you do this: yes/no." Just a clear case for why listening — really listening, not just running through material — is the thing that separates someone who's practiced blues for years from someone who sounds like it.

The companion workbook is built in alongside it: guided prompts and space to reflect chapter by chapter, so the ideas don't just stay theoretical. It's designed to be worked through, not just read once.

If you've got the technical side down — from my other blues books or anywhere else — this is the book that asks what you're actually doing with it.
