Harry Lewman, Ernie Hawkins – Kings of the Twelve String Guitar
Guitar of Blind Willie McTell: Blind Willie McTell, a legendary mystical genius, recorded from 1927, when he established his reputation with the transcendent Statesboro Blues all the way into the 1950’s. In homage to the great Georgia 12-string bluesman, Bob Dylan said: “No one can sing the blues like Blind Willie McTell.”
McTell is known for his unique swift clean fingerpicking style on his old Stella 12-string guitar. This was perfectly suited for his blues, rags and haunting vocals.
He was also a master slide player, able to melt hearts with both blues and gospel gems. He was particularly expert at seamlessly combining a solid moving bass melodic style with spontaneous shimmering runs.
In this DVD lesson Ernie teaches Blind Willie’s greatest songs.
Titles include: Statesboro Blues, Come Around To My House Mama, Broke Down Engine, Searching The Desert For The Blues, Mama T’Ain’t Long For Day and Savannah Mama
Guitar of Lead Belly – King of 12-String Guitar: Today, Huddie “Lead Belly” Ledbetter (1888-1949) is regarded as one of America’s greatest and most influential folk musicians. Lead Belly and his recordings have been the touchstone and inspiration for thousands of musicians, painters, sculptors, writers and just plain folk. Born before recordings, Lead Belly’s career spanned the era of minstrel shows, the Blues craze of the 1920’s, and the dawn of the singer/songwriter.
He was musically influenced by Blind Lemon Jefferson, the most popular solo blues guitarist/vocalist of the 1920’s and his musical and personal influences on Woody Guthrie helped form the way in which all American singer/songwriters write and play to this day. Lead Belly’s repertoire was as varied as a solo musician could hope to encompass.
In this DVD lesson – the first to ever show how Lead Belly played his booming 12-string guitar – Harry Lewman explores the stories behind the songs, and explains in detail the unusual way in which Lead Belly tuned, strung, and played the 12-string guitar. Rare footage of Lead Belly is also featured in this lesson.
