How to play ________

Sign in to disble this ad
Hey everyone, I find myself going into fazes of different genres of music. One week would be Bossa Nova, then the next would be jazz. Currently I'm in R&B. I was hoping we could make a sticky-worthy thread to list all the thread links (and external websites) that be describe how to play a certain type of music, much like the stickied "Music Theory/General Instruction thread". If we get alot of contributions, I'll periodically, edit this post and add them. Also,what are some good books that go into good detail on how to play different styles. I believe I saw one at Barnes & Noble, but I cant remember the name or anything.

I'll start on some

Rock
