"This is a highlights video mainly comprised of selected material from Robben Ford's other instructional videos. If you plan to purchase them, you probably don't need this one. But if you are not sure, this is a nice sample of what's on the other videos.

None of Robben Ford's videos are really designed to teach the early beginner. He can REALLY play and has a deep musical knowledge. The DVD does provide great inspiration for the beginner, and that is how it seems many really good guitarists got started, hearing and seeing it, and saying THATS what I want to be able to do.

In addition to some instruction, Robben Ford and the Blue Line perform a couple tunes at the TV studeo. Good stuff!

There is some good bonus material on the DVD. Some other guitarists giving tips on bends, chord progressions, and using a pick. Also there are a couple of tunes from other highlights videos, one is BB King.

I also recommend Ford's Back to the Blues parts one and two DVD, a nice deal at about three hours run time. This is also pretty advanced stuff, but inspirational.

I highly recommend the New Morning Paris Concert DVD of Robben Ford. Really great performance and production!"
