Story
Why would I want to learn all the notes of my fretboard? Over my 25+ year career as a musician and guitar teacher, I have come across many guitarists who cannot name all the frets on the fretboard. Learning the guitar or music theory for that matter, with no knowledge of the basic fundamental organization of the fretboard is a bit like trying to learn to swim without getting into the water.

For generations the electric guitar has been an international symbol of freedom, danger, rebellion, and hedonism. In Play It Loud, Brad Tolinski and Alan di Perna bring the history of this iconic instrument to roaring life. It's a story of inventors and iconoclasts, of scam artists, prodigies, and mythologizers as varied and original as the instruments they spawned. Play It Loud uses 12 landmark guitars - each of them artistic milestones in their own right - to illustrate the conflict and passion the instruments have inspired.

Many famed music producers are known for a particular sound that has its day. Rick Rubin is known for something else: creating a space where artists of all different genres and traditions can home in on who they really are and what they really offer. He has made a practice of helping people transcend their self-imposed expectations in order to reconnect with a state of innocence from which the surprising becomes inevitable. Over the years, he has learned that being an artist isn’t about your specific output, it’s about your relationship to the world.

Histories of music overwhelmingly suppress stories of the outsiders and rebels who created musical revolutions and instead celebrate the mainstream assimilators who borrowed innovations, diluted their impact, and disguised their sources. In Music: A Subversive History, Ted Gioia reclaims the story of music for the riffraff, insurgents, and provocateurs. Gioia tells a 4,000-year history of music as a global source of power, change, and upheaval.

Publisher's summary
Hi, fellow music lover! Congratulations on starting your music-making journey.
Ear training is one of the most rewarding skills you can develop, and it’s one that you can work on every day. Which makes total sense: Music is an aural experience, after all. Ear training helps you turn the music you hear into music you make on your guitar. This works for your own musical ideas, too: When you dream up a great riff or chord progression, you naturally want to sit down and play it right away. Ear training helps you do just that.
This lesson is broken into several chapters, each of them focusing on two to four related intervals, chords, or scales. There are plenty of examples for each interval, chord, and scale, so you can work straight through the lesson or hop around as much as you like.
The last chapter is a sort of final exam. It brings together all the intervals, chords, and scales we’ve covered and mixes them up for an extra challenge. Give it a go every once in a while to measure your progress.
Best of all, every concept we discuss here is played on a real guitar by a real guitarist.
Oh, and before I forget, the most important tip of all: Have fun!
Inside the audiobook:
- Nice and encouraging female narrator
- Real guitar recordings throughout
- All intervals from prime to octave covered
- Well-chosen interval comparisons
- Ten-plus hours of interval recognition
- All triads, i.e., major, minor, suspended, augmented, diminished, covered
- All commonly used seventh and ninth chords, e.g., major 7, minor 7, dominant 7, minor major 7, covered
- Well-chosen chord comparisons
- Eight-plus hours of chord recognition
- All commonly used scales, i.e., major, minor, dorian, phrygian, lydian, mixolydian, locrian, covered
- Additionally, harmonic and melodic minor, major and minor pentatonic, covered
- Well-chosen scale comparisons
- Six-plus hours of scale recognition
PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.

The very strange but nevertheless true story of the dark underbelly of a 1960s hippie utopia. Laurel Canyon in the 1960s and early 1970s was a magical place where a dizzying array of musical artists congregated to create much of the music that provided the soundtrack to those turbulent times. But there was a dark side to that scene as well. Many didn't make it out alive, and many of those deaths remain shrouded in mystery to this day.

Story
From age 11, in 1974, until she left the show, in 1981, Melissa Anderson literally grew up before the viewers of Little House on the Prairie. Melissa, as Mary, is remembered by many as the blind sister - and she was the only actor in the series to be nominated for an Emmy. In The Way I See It, she takes listeners onto the set and inside the world of the iconic series created by Michael Landon, who, Melissa discovered, was not perfect, as much as he tried to be. In this memoir she also shares her memories of working with guest stars like Todd Bridges, Mariette Hartley, Sean Penn, Patricia Neal, and Johnny Cash.

Story
As a precocious kid who took Broadway by storm at the age of 18, Laura Benanti spent her formative years playing grown-ups onstage, but it took her a while to figure out how to be one in real life. With her razor-sharp wit and unapologetic candor, Benanti shares her hard-won insights on topics like marriage, motherhood, perimenopause, female friendship, and making peace with the younger versions of ourselves.

Story
No one other than Warren Zanes, rocker and writer and friend, could author a book about Tom Petty that is as honest and evocative of Petty's music and the remarkable rock and roll history he and his band helped to write. Born in Gainesville, Florida, with more than a little hillbilly in his blood, Tom Petty was a Southern shit kicker, a kid without a whole lot of promise. Rock and roll made it otherwise.

Story
Alice in Chains was the first of grunge's big four - ahead of Nirvana, Pearl Jam, and Soundgarden - to get a gold record and achieve national recognition. With the charismatic Layne Staley behind the microphone, they became one of the most influential and successful bands to come out of the Seattle music scene. But as the band got bigger, so did its problems.

Story
Why would I want to learn all the notes of my fretboard? Over my 25+ year career as a musician and guitar teacher, I have come across many guitarists who cannot name all the frets on the fretboard. Learning the guitar or music theory for that matter, with no knowledge of the basic fundamental organization of the fretboard is a bit like trying to learn to swim without getting into the water.

If you thought music theory was dull, think again! With the right guidance, it can be woven into every practice – and you'll see astounding results straight away. Playing by ear will get you a long way – it certainly worked for Jimi Hendrix. But the world will only ever know one Hendrix… and for every inspirational story you’ve heard about a famous guitarist who knows nothing of music theory, there’s a whole host of other stories about musicians who do – they’re just not the ones who make the headlines.

Ear training is one of the most rewarding skills you can develop, and it’s one that you can work on every day. Which makes total sense: Music is an aural experience, after all. Ear training helps you turn the music you hear into music you make on your guitar. This works for your own musical ideas, too: When you dream up a great riff or chord progression, you naturally want to sit down and play it right away. Ear training helps you do just that.

The second part of the book focuses on extremely valuable exercises with the help of fifths. The third part is a simple yet powerful exercise that allows you to manifest the sound of each interval even more.

Music is a fertile testing ground for mathematical principles, while mathematics explains the sounds instruments make and how composers put those sounds together. Understanding the connections between music and mathematics helps you appreciate both, even if you have no special ability in either field....

Take your ear training to the next level!
Finally an ear training course performed on real guitars!
Really nice to not be dealing with piano or synth tones then trying to relate that to guitar.
This course is not a music theory primer.
If you just started playing music and don't know theoretically what a third or a fifth is - this isn't the course for you. It will tell you what your hearing** (eg minor third) but not the theory behind it (eg a whole step and a 1/2 step) nor the note names (which are not really relevant to what you are trying to learn here).
**and the accompanying PDF file will tell you how to play the interval and give you tips discerning things.
If you're willing to put in the work this course will aid you on your journey.
I'm only like 1/2 way through and I've made more progress thanks to this course than I have in the past 15 years with other courses. I find that the format helps me stick to the lessons. Being an audible book I can have it playing in the background while doing household chores or other things and it's great to be able to rewind and review what you've gotten wrong and figure out why (i.e. "Alexa rewind 20 seconds"). At times it has been challenging - there's been a couple of times where I broke out my guitar to figure out what was being played and set my ears 'right'.
I may not be going through the course fast but I am definitely seeing progress and growth.
I do wish with the chord book that there had been an additional section on major/minor triads where the chord inversion was given. e.g. 'minor, 2nd inversion'; it would have helped sharpen my ear further. Nonetheless this course was one of my best music purchases last year.

It doesn’t make sense
There isn’t any explanation of what to do or how to do this. Just twangy sounds with a narrator saying “major third” twang “minor third” twang. Maybe not at my level? Doesn’t identify the note and no explanation how to gain anything from this. It’s not what I was looking for.
