Level 2 1 DVD (118 minutes) Detailed tab/music PDF file on DVD. In this DVD lesson you will learn some of the classic songs performed by Mississippi John Hurt. Unlike some of his contemporaries who played in open tunings, John Hurt mostly used standard tuning and played in a variety of keys. His playing demonstrates a systematic approach to playing melody and rhythm with an alternating thumb technique that allows for playing up and down the neck without the extensive use of chord inversions and tricky fingerings. John Hurts guitar work embodies a refreshing simplicity that is well within the grasp of any serious student of fingerstyle guitar. Each tune is taught phrase by phrase and played slowly on a split-screen. A detailed tab/ music booklet is included as a PDF file on the DVD. As well, the original recordings are included in the Bonus Audio section. Titles include: Make Me A Pallet, Joe Turner Blues, Aint Nobodys Dirty Business, Coffee Blues, Boys Youre Welcome, Let The Mermaids Flirt With Me, Spider, Spider, Got The Blues, Cant Be Satisfied, Stagolee, C-H-I-C-K-E-N, Youve Got To Die
