Laurence Juber shares his life with Wings and his solo career 'on
six strings' in new book. Guitar With Wings: LJ's Musical Journey
on Six Strings, a photo memoir by Grammy Award-winning artist
Laurence Juber. It is the story of Juber's five-decade career told
through his own words, candid never-seen-before colour and black
& white photos, vintage advertising materials, guitars,
equipment, memorabilia and the six-string legend's encyclopaedic
musical memory. "In the thirty-something years since Wings folded I
would look at the boxes of photographs and accumulated memorabilia,
promising myself that one day I'd take the time to organize it
all," "Contrary to my expectations that the Wings era would be
absorbed into the general arc of Paul McCartney's career, interest
in the band itself has continued to flourish and I recognized that
I had a unique perspective to offer." Juber said the 50-year
anniversary of his love affair with the guitar and the public's
on-going fascination for Wings proved a catalyst for this
retrospective. "The photos triggered long-forgotten memories of my
time in the band, underscoring how my studies at 'McCartney
University' were a bridge from my early musical experiences to my
later 'solo flight' and how much the couple-consciousness of Paul
and Linda McCartney proved to be a template for my own romantic and
creative relationship with my wife Hope,"
12 songs arranged for solo guitar in standard and altered tunings,
arranged by Wings lead guitarist and two-time Grammy-winning
fingerstylist Laurence Juber. Extensively fingered in notation and
tablature, with a bonus one hour Masterclass CD with Juber teaching
and playing each song. Songs include: Alison * Angie * Every Breath
You Take * God Only Knows * In My Life * Let It Be * Maybe I'm
Amazed * My Girl * My Love * Oh! Darling * Stand by Me * Your Song.
Fingerstyle guitar virtuoso Laurence Juber unravels the mystery of
this beautiful and versatile guitar tuning, long used by Celtic
guitar stylists. Laurence has mastered its intricacies, and he
teaches the evocative tunes he has composed, and which appear on
his latest CD for Narada Records. He shows how this tuning can be
used to beautiful effect in different keys, and how an arrangement
of a familiar tune such as "Danny Boy" can be developed in a
variety of ways. This is a video that will open vast new
possibilities for guitarists who want to extend their musical
vocabularies. 90-MIN. DVD * INCLUDES TAB * INTERMEDIATE LEVEL
