I've been able to "fake" my way through 5 decades of performing on stage with own band or sessions or in churches on guitar. Now at 72, it's time to go back to the woodshed and learn the theory and the joy of playing jazz guitar. Your video was immensely enjoyable and educational. Thank you for putting a smile on this old man's face. My style is to keep on learning and growing and being curious. One never knows when the next gig call will come..
Absolute truth about books. Decided to pick up jazz when my son started music school at the age of 8. That's 3 years ago, and in that period I don't feel I have evolved at all while he blasts out new knowledge at hyperspeed. I realised way too late I had to go back to what I did while I was young studying engineering: reading books, writing, repeating, trying to understand myself up to such a level so that I could explain myself to somebody else what is going on. So I bought jazz-books, an empty work-book and a pen... and it's soo much fun to think, write down, process, ... I actually feel young again 🙂
Thank you.
Linear expressions is pure genius.
Ted Greene's chord chemistry is an amazing learning experience. When it clicks it's kind of liberating. Love him forever
Thank you! I appreciate those recommendation. I can play ok, but I’m trying to get to the next level.
Love Pat, especially his album We’ll Be Together Again. Learned about him thru Emily Remler. She talks a lot about minor chords over dominant chords,which I believe she says she got the idea from Pat, D minor over G7, and alike. Thanks for making me aware of Pat’s book! Will definitely check it out.
That was a great video, I really appreciate it. After playing guitar for 40 years (!) I finally at the beginning of 2023 decided to sit down with some books and try jazz guitar. First thing I learned was how far I would have to go. Second thing I learned was that you get SO much more out of working from the book. You are so right - it makes you think. Read and read again, then maybe sit down and try to play it. I have the Hal Leonard Book and the Jimmy Baker books. Both are good, but I will surely be checking out some of these recommendations. Thanks a ton, man
I am also a huge book buff. There's something about sitting down and studying from a book that is magical. It's so easy to get distracted and information overload when sitting at the computer. Ted Greene's Chord Chemistry is an amazing dive into the mind of a genius on the verge of madness. Great book to have and read through, but definitely not the best for someone at a beginner or intermediate level.
Such great advice, thank you ! Just took delivery of Linear Expressions, perfect for a snowy winter….
Love this! Subscribed!
Great content!
Such a awesome video! Starting the year off right. I too love books. I have a few of Ted Greene’s book…Just ordered both of these that you mentioned. Thank you!
I bought and studied Linear Expressions back in the 80s. Amazing book. I still play through the patterns.
Another great video
Glad I just discovered your channel. Although what you're discussing is far above my level, I think it's wonderful that you are willing to share your wealth of information. I've been struggling with the guitar for about 5yrs along with my grandson. I'm 70yrs old and at this point I spend most of my time uplifting my grandson because time favors him. I subscribed to your channel and I will definitely share with my grandson. Thanks for your posting. 👍
I have a bunch, but the one that is ragged with pages falling out which I have used for 37 yrs I think is Warren Nunes Jazz Guitar Chords and Rhythm Changes. Lots of chord progressions and teaching chords with 4 different roots. I take it with whenever I play.
Your playing has such a warm and cozy quality to it:)
nice vid. i love hearing you talk about jazz guitar and seems like you enjoy it yourself
Hopia. love it. Just learning the basics so there is a lot of hopia
Thanks fir letting us see the compendium collection!(very cool selections)..Hope to see you soon at the "New York"Jam!....(Smalls Live Stream...& Mezzrow Jazz ) !!!
I also have a Mesrobian… bought it immediately after playing it and the ChampX amp. Tone was too unbelievable!!!
Great video! I especially endorse the Pat Martino book! For those of you who want to dive into the Pat Martino book he talked about here, there is this Brazilian guitarist who I follow on YT who has a playlist wherein he features basically all the phases/exercises on that book. I do not put creators page links in any channel I visit so all I will share is that if you search for "Pat Martino - Linear Expressions - Phase I - Horizontal Movement" you'll get to it! Cheers! :)
I completely agree about books. They really show you where you are (or aren't) in your understanding and require you to absorb and process the information in a way videos just can't replicate
Thanks for the book recommendations and the great videos.
Practice, practice, practice!
"They really show you where you are (or aren't) in your understanding"....Yes, this is so true. You have to find the right book at the right time in your development.
Thx for the video. If you run short of ideas maybe you could do a vid on how to use the Joe Pass book. Its been on my shelf for ages but simply haven´t figured out how to use it properly!!
Hi. I had a subscription to Just Jazz Guitar magazine and I still have most of them! I have this 2 Ted Greene soloing books and the Arnie Berle book. I also Have that Garrison Fewell book.
I would buy your collection of Just Jazz Guitar...such a great magazine...miss it+
I really enjoyed this video...thank you. I was wondering if I could ask you a question. What do you do when you get stuck on something? To be more specific...If you are working on something and there is a part that you can't seem to get under your fingers. Maybe just a 2 or 3 bar section that slows you down. When you get to the point where just doing repetitions don't seem to help any more. I would love to know some strategies that you use. If you've already done a video on this I would appreciate if you pointed me in that direction. I have strategies that I use myself but would love to hear the perspective of a more advanced player.
I'll have to check out those books! I love the Barry Galbraith book series. He was really a genius of guitar. My teacher told me though, don't be a bookworm. Gotta play tunes, too! I still love my books, though. Just gotta make sure I don't live in them.
Books also relic and show time and wisdom gained
I want you to know I stopped playing an Abbey Lincoln youtube of Another World to check this out. I've seen Martino a number of times since the late 1970's. (the bay area jazz clubs) over the last ten years. I've spoken with him twice. The second time we talked about Krishnmurti. The videos and lessons from Rich Severson have allowed me to move rapidly ahead in guitar. I only play his chord melodies of tunes like Laura, Ain't Misbehavin', This Masquerade, Stolen Moments, Georgia, Cry Me A River, Up Jumped Spring, Smoke Gets In Your Eyes, Santa Baby, Beyond The Sea, OverThe Rainbow, you get the idea. I play solld body electric with heavy flatwounds, finger and thumb only. You learn sound and shapes from Rich's tabs, and now I can figure out tunes quickly just by listening. It DOES NOT mean I know the chords I'm playing when I play tunes. (I'll know them if I'm playing keyboard) I know the guitar. I think it used to be a little easier to access the Rich Severson files, and they used to be about 8 or nine bucks each, coming with pdf, Tab, Mp-4 backing, and video lesson. I think my fingers are about two inches shorter than yours...
I wish they would do a new edition of Chord Chemistry with real diagrams and at least the roots noted. The diagrams are so small and blurry that I put that book aside until I got new bifocals. I was putting so much energy into deciphering the hieroglyphs that I wasn’t absorbing much theory.
I wish I had the entire Readers Digest Songbook Library. I will look for that #2 chord book.
Please put the list in your caption!
Which jazz guitar book is best for a beginner?
I’m fairly certain that Pat Martino said in an interview that he had nothing to do with that book.
