The Soul of Tone: Celebrating 60 Years of Fender Amps (Book & CD)

Product Description

From the same “dream team” that created The Fender Stratocaster Chronicles (Vintage Guitar magazine’s 2004 Book of the Year) comes this new publication covering the other side of Fender’s legacy, the instrument amplifier. Revered as much as one’s guitar, the Fender amplifier gets its due in this full-color, richly illustrated book. Features over 400 images, including legendary guitarists such as Eric Clapton, B.B. King, Neil Young, Pete Townshend, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Muddy Waters, Robbie Robertson and Dick Dale, and two CDs featuring over 100 tracks that make terms and topics come alive.

King of the Blues Guitar

King of the Blues Guitar

Amazon.com
These 17 tunes come from King’s most fertile period, his 1966-68 tenure at Memphis’s Stax Records. Stax chief Jim Stewart had been reluctant to sign blues artists because he felt straight blues wouldn’t mesh with Stax’s patented Memphis soul. Ironically, the fusion of King’s sharp guitar wails with the dynamic rhythms of Booker T. & the MGs–the Stax house band–was what set King apart from other bluesmen. The unique blend produced classic after classic: Booker T. Jones’ rolling piano propels “Laundromat Blues.” Al Jackson’s drum shuffle supports “Crosscut Saw.” The driving horns of Andrew Love, Wayne Jackson, and Joe Arnold accent “Born Under a Bad Sign.” King’s ripe and mellow vocals are a perfect match for the soul-drenched music while his dramatic string bends leap out. –Marc Greilsamer
