Brilliant guitar lessons on the net

Delta Blues Tips

Delta Blues Tips

Living way out in the Swedish countryside, I needed something to pass the time, and decided, to at last, take my guitar playing seriously.

I would love to find lessons. possibly a night class or something, but that would mean driving miles, and as I am interested in blues, there would be no guarantee that I could indulge myself in that area.

Most people I have met in Sweden, are either into dance bands or metal of some description (with the exception of my friend Magnus Jönsson, who has a very good and eclectic taste in music :-) ). So, I started to look around the internet. I have found tons of resources, but I would like to point visitors, to one site in particular.

It is called Deltabluestips (just click on the link to take you there).

Here is the weird part, being born in Liverpool myself in St Andrews Gardens, and now in my 50’s living in Sweden, the site I find most useful, which I found completely out of the blue, is a guy from Liverpool, my home town, who was born in Gerard Gardens (a stones throw away from where I was born), who is in his 50’s. How strange is that, or maybe something Jungian.

It seems this guy who prefers to stay anonymous (for reasons I fully understand), as very similar tastes in music to myself. This guy hangs out in the Egg Cafe and Lark Lane in Liverpool, which are old haunts of mine. So, we have so much in common it is spooky that his site popped up when I was looking for inspiration on the world wide web. Here is an example of what can be found on Deltabluestips:

So if you are into blues, check out Deltabluestips. I wish that “masked man” every success with his project and hope it brings him the rewards he deserves. Thanks fella (whoever you are), hope this post drives loads of traffic your way and more power to you. Keep up the excellent work, if, when I am back home sometime, I can track you down, I will buy you a few pints.
