When I picked up the Yairi DY90 my wealthy friend directly commissioned Kazuo Yairi to build on a trip to Japan in 1982, his brother gave me a box of music books my friend collected over the years. There was a book in there on scales instruction for blues, jazz, rock and country guitar styles. Each scale has solos diagrammed that pertain to it. It also has extensive arpeggios covered immensely. Aside from his friendship and the Yairi, this is one of the best things he left me. I intend to learn every page of the book throughout the rest of the winter. I already sat down with a few of my 70's lp's and soloed along with several songs on them. I'll never know why I didn't pursue this sooner but I have a whole new world opening up to me now. It's all beginning to click.

I'm adding the book is called Styles for the Studio by Leon White.
