product description

Since 1961, players from all different musical backgrounds have sought to learn Robert Johnson's techniques and in this 3-DVD set, with almost 6 hours of instruction, Tom Feldmann covers every aspect of Johnson's playing. Each song is performed before he dissects the arrangement verse-by-verse and ends with a split screen segment where the song is played slowly with close up shots of both hands. This is the most expansive look into the guitar playing of Robert Johnson produced in video form.
