    Frank is good but Joe has so
    Much clarity and a full tone.
    That’s difference between good
    And great it’s the sound! Joe’s lines Are much more clear and make musical sense as a result.

    Sorry I went there so late, but I eventually listened to your playing; nice! Talking about speed: speed is a special thing that motivates young players; what mainly matters is pleasure: thats the only thing that can be shared with music. Somepeople play fast and well, others play slower and play well too... play in accordance with what you are and it'll sound fine to me. I've met quite a few old players who couldn't play fast anymore and gave us great pleasure.

    Yes Pass plays with more confidence and fluidity. He also is more melodic and his phrasing is more interesting while the younger guy seems to be falling back on scalar exercises. It all comes from experience.

    How do you tell a jazz guitarist from a rock guitarist?
    The rock guitarist has a $1500 guitar and a $1500 amplifier.
    The jazz guitarist has a $3,000 guitar and a $50 amplifier...

      I thought the rock guitarist plays three chords in front of an audience 10000 and the jazz guitarist plays 10000 chords in front of an audience of 3.

    Let me quote a few colleagues: "Harmony, well, I studied it untill I passed my diplom and shelved the book" this clarinet player played in a highly rated military orchestra and taught clarinet for 40 years... There is no roon for such a thing as "understanding music" in the classical teaching until you reach superior level... Once you reach that level, you will have to attend performing courses(interprétation in french) where they detail for you how to play and you'll have to give in...

    Absolutely. I have been playing for 50 years. Jazz didn't make me any better, or worse. Arthritis did that! But have a listen to me if you wish and judge for yourself.
    I can't play this fast that's for sure!

    @Benteiron only you know if you are... i'm a jazz guitarist in my own right and teach rock, folk and other styles as well. That's the only way I ever play rock and related styles these days: for teaching purposes, and occasionnal jams... Keeps me up with it!

    @swingmanu 13 лет назад

    @Benteiron studying jazz sure doesn't make you a jazz musician, but it surely allows you a better understanding of music and how to make it better. The difference between a jazz and a rock (or classical) musician is not basically technical (if you think of shredder for example); a jazz educated musician has tools to better understand and develop the music he's playing, if he uses these tools the clever way.

  • @swingmanu
    @swingmanu 13 лет назад +2

    @Benteiron of course, jazz doesn't always make you a better player if the teaching (the teacher!!!) tries to keep you out of other styles, considering that only jazz is any good. If you're playing another style and feel good at it, why should you stop and neglect the knowledge and technic you already have? Jazz should only be an addition to what you've already got. Keep playing rock or whatever with your usual fingering whatever it is, and learn a new way of thinking with jazz; Rock on!

    Sheesh, reading some of these comments. Can't someone post a lifetime achievement? They're both playing really well. Slow it down x .75. They aren't playing scales & how would one have time to play any scale with this crazy tune?

  • @swingmanu
    @swingmanu 13 лет назад

    @Benteiron the "very" good rock guitarists have "often"studied jazz or even taught it and went on to something else. To name a few: Steve VaÏ, Joe Satriani, Steve Lukather, the guy in dream theater, or even older guys, such as Blackmore or Alvin Lee

    @Hamporkcheese Isnt that a bit of a generalisation? Or are the rock guitarists who can play actually jazz guitarists?

    Those are all fusion guitarists... And fusion is usually included in jazz.

    Now, please don't get me wrong with what I'm about to type...
    I love the unexpected free-form that Jazz has... and that it can go in to directions never thought of and yet come back to the core of the "song". I know the Grateful Dead loved that, and added some extra enhancements to it. And threw in some Country and Rock and whatever else was basically in at least "part" of the same key.
    But I love me some Led Zeppelin. Structured songs that are pretty random really ! (The Rain Song, No Quarter, Kashmir, etc.) that were not the "usual".
    And then ya got the Beatles. OK, yeah... pop at times... but come on ! It's the freakin' Beatles. 272 songs released, and look at the diversity.
    Me loves me some sweet guitar ! Wes, Andres, etc.

    • @boidoh
      @boidoh 3 года назад +1

      Jazz definitely has form, I don't get what you mean.

  • @swingmanu
    @swingmanu 11 лет назад

    Sorry for this fairly negative answer, but they don't. Of course, the original musicians, the composers, knew what they were doing, both theoretically and by ear, but there is a very bad transmission problem with classical teachers... The famous classical musicians usually do have a good understanding of music, but how many musicians get famous? I teach in a music school where teachers cannot be recruited without high diploms. To be continued...

    Man, Frank rips it up, yet Joe seems to play with more...what? Conviction? Confidence? Maybe I'm just more used to JP's sound. Don't get me wrong, both of these guys just destroyed, better than I'm ever going to play.

      One guy was coming up probably trying to impress his idol. The other had been humping the road for decades and was used to it. Usually how it goes when Jew school meets old school in music tbh. Makes sense. More experience.

  • @swingmanu
    @swingmanu 11 лет назад

    The basic problem with classical teaching is that they'll teach you how to play with sight, no from hearing: the classical teaching is still living in the 19th century and doesn't recognize such commun things as recordings, videos and now softwares...j

  • @swingmanu
    @swingmanu 13 лет назад +1

    @Benteiron if jazz makes you a better player, good! if it doesn't, change teacher! The whole world doesn't have to play jazz!!! The main difference between jazz and other styles is the teaching. Jazz teaching is based on harmony , which studies the links between notes and chords. Rock training relies on a practice with no explanation or theory whatsoever. Classical training neglects all these points until you reach a very high level and teaches harmony in a way that keeps you from using it.

    joe pass is getting a warmer sound from his ibanez jp20 here. and the other guy has one of the worst 175's tones that i've ever heard, in my opinion.
