A few weeks back I posted a fingerstyle chord melody arrangement of a Herbie Hancock’s …Cantaloupe Island. I know a lot of you really enjoyed it and requested more in that funky 60s style. So as a follow up, in this weeks lesson I want to teach you another classic by Herbie from his Blue Note era…Watermelon Man.

It’s an easy I-IV-V blues progression but lot’s of fun to play! You can even solo over it using any traditional blues resources you’ve learned in the past.

PDF & AUDIO DOWNLOAD:

The Watermelon Man Files can be downloaded for $8.00. Your contribution is much appreciated, as it helps support the site and allows me to keep investing the long hours required to produce these lessons. The download includes: a PDF of the solo guitar arrangement with both regular notation and TAB, an MP3 of the arrangement and a Band In A Box file .
