an obviously talented musician, I am not sure I can say that he is a talented teacher. I own all 3 volumes and really struggle with the tempo. As another reviewer said, the tab is not precise, and Bob moves very quickly through the material. An advanced intermediate guitarist would likely benefit the most.

One thing that did catch me off guard was when he began to sing. At first, I thought he was just being funny, and imitating an “old African-American” sound and style of singing; like a parody. I was not correct in this; apparently, this was not meant to be humorous.

Most everything from Homespun is gold. They seem to choose talented artists who are also gifted teachers. I am not sure that this DVD fits that bill. Bob is an incredible guitarist, but for an instructional DVD, a talent for communicating that skill, like so many others on Homespun, is essential.
