    Description

    Will Ray's latest DVD explores the blues with his alter ego character, Cigar Box Willie. Included are 20 of the most cutting edge licks ever concocted, played over blues-based backing tracks. Will talks you through each lick slowly note by note, then plays the lick up to speed in the context of a song. Get inside the head of a master guitarist and get a glimpse of his, well, unconventional other side.
    This is Part I in a series of Cigar Box Willie videos that were originally filmed for the internet. They stand as an entertaining look at how to think outside the box when playing the blues. Will wears his trademark "Groucho" mask throughout the DVD to set the mood. No one is exactly sure what mood that is, but he sure sets it! The lessons are funny, entertaining but most of all - educational.
    There are 20 guitar lessons/licks included here, done in standard tuning on six-string guitars. And as CBW says of the lessons, "they're not for sissies". But they will for sure make you think about guitar differently and hopefully inspire you to new guitar heights.
