I have been looking for good blues backing tracks for the longest time.
Finally, I have found the ones that I know will better my guitar playing tenfold. I can't believe how great the sound quality actually is, I feel like I am playing with a professional or even famous blues band!
Normally you get a bunch of ready-made MIDI tracks which are just arranged digital instrument sounds that are worse than TV game sounds from the 80s!
50Blues has an amazing deal where you get 50 blues backing tracks that are Immediately downloadable after buying them. There is also an option to purchase the 2 CDs instead
They have everything from slow blues ballads, shuffles, fast, funk, jazzy blues and much much more. Now, with a click of a play button I can practise my guitar riffs and licks over a professional band that remains in tempo and knows how to back up a lead guitarist.
Any real blues musician will tell you that practice is what makes the difference. Real hands on practice by playing with a band. Of course playing live is always the best because you can practice playing in front of people as well as playing along with the band.
But with blues backing tracks from 50Blues you are THAT MUCH CLOSER to the real deal. My lead guitar playing has already improved by at least DOUBLE since I have been playing along with these backing tracks. I've enjoy practicing so much with these tracks.
If you are just starting out with blues guitar or if you are looking to improve your current soloing skills I highly recommend this product to you. I give it two thumbs up and 5 stars!
The only bad thing about it is that you can't practice in front of people like you can when playing with a real live professional band at a club or event or gig.
But hey...this is the next best thing and you might like it better being able to practice on your own before letting loose your skills to the rest of the world!
