The blues is a universal language everyone understands. Fred Sokolow has selected classic tunes that sound terrific on Ukulele; some are sad, some are funny, some tell a story. Besides learning great songs by the likes of Big Bill Broonzy, Blind Blake, Bessie Smith, Memphis Minnie and Henry Thomas, you'll learn licks, scales, turnarounds and techniques that'll enable you to jam with other players and ad-lib, blues-style. There's even a lesson on bottleneck/slide Uke. Fred makes it easy to learn, with split-screen, slowed down versions of the songs and helpful hints about the licks and picking styles. All the songs are written out in tab and music notation in the PDF file that comes with the lesson. Songs include: Little Red Rooster, Diddie Wah Diddie, Wasted Life Blues, Nobody Knows You When You're Down and Out, Just a Dream, Fishing Blues, Hesitation Blues and When the Levee Breaks .
