Dating as far back as the 40's, Rhythm & Blues has been used to describe a wide variety of musical styles combining jazz, blues, soul, funk and rock. This handpicked collection of 50 R&B Licks You MUST Know pays homage to the soulful, bluesy, rock sounds of the 60s and 70s upon which much of our contemporary and requisite guitar vocabulary is derived from.
