Post by Andy Volk »

Guitar Center has a "King of the Blues" contest going on. FYI they have a slew of blues back-up tracks produced by session/production ace Pete Anderson that are available for free download here:

Yup, they had the same thing last year - there are 3 new ones, but most of them are the same. I suggest you download 'em now if you want 'em - last year, when the contest was over, they went away.

These are good blues backing tracks.

These are way cool..Ive just been trying to absorb the groove on the second line blues. Just taping my hands and feet to the rythym...there is enough work in those grooves to keep most of us here busy for a year at least.

I've used these with my students for a couple of years now, they're great. Found five new ones that I didn't already have.. :D
