To anybody interested in the possibilities of the fingerstyle guitar, Doyle Dykes needs no introduction. His spectacular technique combines the techniques of Jazz, Country, Bluegrass and more to create a startling performance style that embraces Chet Aitkins, Martin Taylor, Duane Eddy and others. Like Taylor, Dykes makes the seemingly impossible appear effortless - a veritable one-man-ensemble, his arrangements feature basslines, vamps, comping and melodic soloing simultaneously in a dazzling blur of virtuosic finger-work. In this celebratory set of transcriptions, Jon Chappell provides a complete overview of the Doyle Dykes style and technique. Alongside 17 complete transcriptions in accurate Guitar tab you will find an informative biography and a detailed lesson covering the unique aspects of Doyle's remarkable talent. A CD is included featuring full performances of every piece included in the book.
