Movie Reviews of Warren Haynes: Electric Blues & Slide Guitar
Movie Review: Excellent DVD
Summary: 5 Stars
Regardless to what level guitarist you are at this point, you can and will benefit from, and enjoy this DVD. Warren Haynes is not only one of the most talented guitarists to play the blues, he also has an excellent, down to earth personal teaching style that will make this DVD an essential part of your library. You will easily pick up suttle nuances from the DVD that you can apply immediately. Warren's commentary is very helpful, and his insight invaluable. Whether you're interested in picking up some new hot licks or in continuing to fine tune your skills, this DVD is definitely worthwhile. I recommend it highly.Movie Review: Lacking
Summary: 2 Stars
This is a repackaged on DVD version of what used to be a video tape. This may be an OK learning program for experienced guitarists, but beginners should stay away. There is no written material other than a tab book that doesn't tell you how to read tab. Plus, the text in the tab book is almost unreadable. This DVD may have been marginally useful if the tab booklet was adequate, but it is pretty useless with this poor quality booklet. I gave my DVD away to my brother-in-law who is an accomplished guitarist.Movie Review: Worthwhile DVD
Summary: 4 Stars
This is a must have if you are a fan of Warren Haynes. He gives some great insight into his own personal style. Not an instructional dvd for beginners. I highly recommend it!Movie Review: Excellent instruction for electric blues and standard tuning slide guitar
Summary: 5 Stars
Being an advanced beginner, I would say this has been the best instructional dvd that I have purchased. Warren's style is engaging and easy to follow and he provides a broad range of material that is both below and well above my current skill level. I was particularly interested in his coverage of slide playing which has taken me to the next level. He does a great job of providing instruction on the basics of standard tuning slide playing, while also covering more advanced techniques. The split screen, loop, and slowed at standard pitch features are excellent, however the accompanying booklet is rather small-fwiw. You want this for electric and standard tuning blues, not for more traditional "delta" slide playing.Movie Review: The best of the Hot Licks series!
Summary: 5 Stars
I own several of the hot licks DVD's and this one blew me away. It gives you a very broken down lesson on how to approach electric blues and especially how to play standard tuning slide. Haynes goes into great detail on how to play slide, as well as his own techniques on how to mute unwanted notes and how to bring out the best in the notes you do want. The looping options on the DVD are a great tool to help you nail down the licks he provides.
What I found most useful is how he actually plays longer licks here...not the normal 15 second or so lick and thats found on many other guitar instruction DVD's. The playing here is for more advanced players, but that does not mean that even beginners cannot get something out of this. He really gets into the playing and it only helps aspiring guitarists learn some great licks from one of the best players of our time.
