There’ll never be another band like the Grateful Dead, but the Dead’s music lives on. Now you can learn to play and sing nine classic Grateful Dead tunes from start to finish with Fred Sokolow’s 92-minutes of note-by-note, phrase by phrase instruction.

For each song Fred discusses how to fingerpick backup while singing, how to play an instrumental solo, and how to begin and end the tune. Along the way, you’ll learn a lot about finger-picking: backup patterns, soloing ideas and chord positions.  All the arrangements are clearly written out in tab and music in the book, along with lyrics.

Titles include: Friend of the Devil, Ripple, Sugar Magnolia, Touch Of Grey, Uncle John’s Band, Truckin’, Alabama Getaway, Dire Wolf and Deal.

Contains the complete soundtrack of Fred's Music of the Grateful Dead video lesson.
