Abstract

This article from Guitar World discusses techniques for emulating vocals on the guitar. The author explains how incorporating articulation techniques such as string bends, finger slides, hammer-ons, pull-offs, and vibrato can help create a more expressive and musical performance. The article provides examples using the blues classic "It Hurts Me Too" by Elmore James, both with and without a slide. The author also emphasizes the importance of imagining the guitar "singing" the words as well as the notes. [Extracted from the article]
