For each groove, Carlton demonstrates three choruses worth of comping and three choruses of improvisational soloing. Each performance is followed by an explanation of what he played and more importantly, why he played it.

Carlton also drills down on essential techniques and improvisational approaches. Bending and vibrato are demonstrated and broken down in unprecedented detail. Use of motifs, space and phrasing are likewise presented in an amazing, ear-opening fashion. Other gems of insight in this section include use of the melodic minor in blues, “knuckle voicings” and recommendations for how to approach both practice and playing.
