Information about the instructional Hawaiian steel guitar video DVDs
produced by Homespun Tapes and Learn Roots Music.
The steel guitar videos included on this page are in DVD format
and they feature slide guitar instruction by
Bob Brozman and Steve Dawson.
PRODUCER'S DESCRIPTION: Let Steve introduce you to his amazing world of Lap Style
Llide Guitar in C tuning (CGCGCD) in this easily accessible
lesson for the intermediate slide player. 'Steve has
evolved into a musical chameleon, whether appearing
with his group Zubot and Dawson, the avant-folk quartet
The Great Uncles of the Revolution or blues legend
Jim Byrnes, and now, he proves he's a great teacher
too!' In this lesson, Steve focuses on his specialized
style of playing lap-style slide in open C tuning.
Using an original country blues to show how he plays
in C major, Steve moves through the mixolydian mode
( flat 7ths) and into the C minor scale with a song
demonstration on each while showing his unique
techniques throughout. All licks are shown for the
left and right hands with slow, easy to understand
instruction and then played up to speed with lots of
tips along the way. Steve will have you improvising in
no time at all with this great lesson for the lap
style slide player!
PRODUCER'S DESCRIPTION: Get the real Hawaiian steel guitar sound!
This lesson for guitarists, Dobro, lap steel and pedal steel players
covers bar techniques, hand positions, scale patterns, Hawaiian
tunings, vibrato, harmonic "chimes" and more. Bob stresses the
importance of using palm harmonics and explains some incredible
secrets for getting sounds up and down the neck. You'll learn to
play four Hawaiian classics "Mai Kai No Kauai;" "Maui Chimes;"
"Moana Chimes;" "Uhe, Uhene" and grasp how this music has
profoundly influenced today's bluegrass, country, Western swing,
jazz and Tex-Mex styles.
