Nick Jennison takes an in-depth look at the subtle guitar nuances of the blues-master in this exclusive Gi Tech Session. Peter Green's groundbreaking style stood in stark contrast to the guitar arms race of the 1960s - the understated and thoughtful Yin to Hendrix's flamboyant and virtuosic Yang. On the surface, Green's style can seem simplistic and even primitive, but it's not about the notes he played - it's how he played them. Green's economical playing style was not an excuse for a lack of chops or vocabulary, but a deliberate artistic choice to focus all the listener's attention on the expressiveness of his touch and tone. Keep that in mind as we go forward - learning the notes isn't even half the battle.
