Pre-Order: Listen to my Noise - The Guitar Stylings of George Riley Puckett
This brand new title will be released in early Fall. Place a pre-order to receive your copy hot off the press!
In this book, guitarist and educator Cameron Knowler explores the idiosyncratic and highly influential instrumental techniques from an overlooked giant of American music: Riley Puckett. Through a collection of forty-seven detailed transcriptions, you'll investigate Puckett’s approaches in various ensemble formats and be introduced to his signature rhythms and bass runs alongside their variations within vocal and instrumental song formats.
This collection also features an introductory biography, never-before-seen photographs, as well as a fundamental insight into the musician’s technique which opens new doors for researchers and players alike. As with Knowler’s other publication, Guitars Have Feelings Too, you will come away with perspectives that allow the past to be creatively interpreted and applied to a vast number of modern playing styles.
