2 of 2 people found the following review helpful. Its good. Its funny. Its my pick for this years best 'How to' guitar book By mervyns I bought this with a view to upgrading my jazz-guitar skills but discovered this book offers a whole lot more than guitar playing instruction. I am a better musician for reading it, plain and simple. Richard Niles is a masterful educator because while his approach is light-hearted, a lot of knowledge is packed into every laugh.There is a place for humour, nay a need for humour, in education, and this strikes a chord with me. Congratulations on maybe the most efficient ‘How to play guitar’ book I have yet come across. Its certainly the funniest. Recommended for all guitar players out there with room for improvement.

By Lauren Passarelli From Dreaming To Gigging: Jazz Guitar in 6 Months Richard is brilliant & hilarious. Everything you need to understand and play jazz (on any instrument) is in this book. The title seems like a fantasy, but if you diligently follow his guidance, you will be improvising and expressing yourself sooner than you think. Richard is intelligent, organized and able to present a subject as deep as jazz in a step wise, make serious progress, systematic, yet artful way. He's got you covered, you will learn, you will understand, you will know. You'll be gigging in six months. Lauren Passarelli, Professor of Guitar, Berklee College of Music

I feel like I'm beginning to know what I'm doing By Garrett Wolfe Simon This book is a MUST have for anyone who wants to express themselves, not only on guitar, but on bass, piano, or perhaps even sitar! I've been playing professionally for half a century, and for the first time, since I cracked open this book, I feel like I'm beginning to know what I'm doing. And while I am learning to master my musical language and craft, Dr. Niles keeps me laughing. This is the most informative, easy to use, and fun music text I have ever used. My only complaint is that he didn't write it decades ago. 8 out of five stars!!!
