Free with its minimalist blues-rock approach, was one of the biggest-selling British blues-rock groups, best known for their signature song “All Right Now”, a rock staple, which in 2000 passed 2,000,000 radio plays in the UK. Free lead guitarist Paul Kossoff was one of the best blues guitarists in the world, renowned for his fluid, slow, melodic leads and bluesy guitar riffs.

Bad Company: one of the most acclaimed bands of the classic rock era put its indelible stamp on rock 'n' roll with its straight-ahead, no-frills musical approach that resulted in the creation of some of the most timeless rock anthems ever. Mick Ralphs, lead guitarist, used rock, blues and even country influences, skillfully layered within songs to define the band's stripped-down sound.

These new double guitar tuition DVD’s are both taught by Mike Casswell, the highly acclaimed and accomplished guitarist, a talented singer songwriter and producer. Probably best known for, touring with some of the greatest names in the music industry: Brain May and Cozy Powell.

Mike gives you the authoritative accurate way to play the legendary All Right Now riff.
