    Pat Martino performs West Coast Blues as a tribute to Wes Montgomery. Please note that this is strictly a performance video for our youtube channel and is not part of the lesson series.
    One of the most original of the jazz-based guitarists to emerge in the 1960s, Pat Martino made a remarkable comeback after brain surgery in 1980 to correct an aneurysm caused him to lose his memory and completely forget how to play. It took years, but he regained his ability, partly by listening to his older records. Martino began playing professionally when he was 15. He worked early on with groups led by Willis Jackson, Red Holloway, and a series of organists, including Don Patterson, Jimmy Smith, Jack McDuff, Richard "Groove" Holmes, and Jimmy McGriff. After playing with John Handy (1966), he started leading his own bands and heading sessions for Prestige, Muse, and Warner Bros. that found him welcoming the influences of avant-garde jazz, rock, pop, and world music into his advanced hard bop style. After the operation, Martino did not resume playing until 1984, making his recording comeback with 1987's The Return. Although not as active as earlier, Pat Martino has regained his earlier form, recording again for Muse and Evidence; he later signed with Blue Note, issuing All Sides Now in 1996, followed two years later by Stone Blue and in 1998 by Fire Dance. In 2001 Martino released a live album recorded at Yoshi's in California. Two years later he teamed with saxophonist Joe Lovano for Think Tank. Remember: A Tribute to Wes Montgomery appeared on Blue Note in 2006.

    Respecting Pat as I do it's hard for me to watch after his passing... he will show you commitment to a zone and capabilities...Cover a Ginant take an individual that can do so...Pat definitely could Cover these arrangements with class and original style 👌...it's great.... he actually, lived wuthering great Les Paul in his Jr year's.....underrated.

    Pat Martino has really got the Wes Montgomery style down! I've heard few guitarists come as close to the Montgomery style as Pat is capable of doing. One of the great living jazz guitarist in the world today - and not just because he does a great Wes imitation, but in his own right. He's a real virtuoso!

      Itravail . I share the same feeling .Besides the Jazz Tone and fantastic talent
      for impro Pat Martino And Wes Montgomery have the greatest melodic bop
      lines and can really play perfectly the song melody as it could be sang by
      the nicest vocals .

      Sean Rosati I don't know him that well! (Hence why is said skilled instead of all the other great things you just listed) As a 16 year old aspiring guitarist/musician it is great to find and be able to listen and watch someone who is such a legend. Do you have any recommendations? I'd love to hear more but was a bit lost in all the material available!

    Here is a quick intro to Pat Martino’s “SYMMETRICAL PARENTAL FORMS”.
    There are two: the 3-note Augmented triad and the 4-note Diminished 7th chord.
    1: Play frets 554 on GBE for C+ or C aug. (1-3-.#5). Move any of those notes DOWN one fret and you will form/parent 3 different major triads (E-G#-C).
    Instead move any of those notes UP one fret and you will form/parent 3 minor triads (C#m, Fm, Am). See how that one Augmented triad yields/parents 3 major and 3 minor triads?
    And the Augmented triad is “symmetrical” (think equilateral triangle) because the 3 notes are a major third apart.
    2: Play frets 4545 on the DGBE for a Diminished 7th chord (with 4 possible roots, F# -C-D#-A).
    Move any of those notes DOWN by one fret, and you will form/parent 4 Dominant 7 chords. (F7, B7-D7-Ab7)
    - This observation of Martino’s is not a theory; it is a series of facts about how the guitar in standard tuning functions (not the key, the intervals between the strings).
    It’s like CAGED in that it “unlocks” the fretboard.
    I hope I made it easy to get started on it.
    I’ll be spending a lot of time on it.
    RIP Pat Martino, master guitarist.
