Bessie Smith - Gimme A Pig Foot

My apologies to all our vegetarian friends. If it's any consolation, I didn't eat any of this pig, not because I don't like that sort of thing - more for health reasons. I'm under the care of Chinese… (in post Not Kosher from boogie woogie flu. Download this at iTunes More by this artist at eMusic Amazont)

You must build up your collection of acoustic guitar music. Lessons, songs and study programs. You need them all. I even recommend backing tracks to play through. After teaching guitar for 20 years, I have learned that people who have good "libraries" become the better players. If you just search around the internet for free stuff, you are only going to get so far. Sure there are plenty of free things on the internet, but if you want to step it up and rise above the other players, you will need to become a little more serious.

Invest in some good books. You will have them for your whole life. You don't have to finish every book right away. Learn something, practice it then learn something else. Don't just throw out your guitar magazines. (Well recycle them) Keep them or at least take out the sheet music and lessons. The sheet music you find in the magazines is better than the ones you get from the free tab sites. Yeah these sites have some good stuff, but they also have some really really bad stuff.

Check out local bookstores, they have good acoustic guitar music. You don't want to skip something just because you have to pay for it. Visit the Berklee Online Bookstore. If you live close enough, just go there. It's awesome. They have a ton of stuff.

Invest in a good acoustic guitar music program. Something that goes over strum patterns, chords, scales and playing with other people. Don't just grab anything; get something that's really been proven to be good. The Hal Leonard Signature Licks stuff is fantastic. I use it all the time in my teaching. Jamorama is an unbelievable program. There is so much material for a teacher/student. Acoustic Guitar Magazine and FlatPicking Guitar magazine are both great resources too. I personally prefer Flatpicking Guitar Magazine because it's got more obscure players.

But whatever acoustic guitar music you are into, there are resources for you, but you got to take a little action and find it out. Spend a few bucks and load up your library with stuff to practice. Your acoustic guitar music is too important to skip this.
