So I guess this is it. All of it finally makes sense. It's not just random fretting on the fingerboard but something understandable and systematic. I never thought that I could play actually jam out. Thank you SPJ! This made me so happy to try.
I've been learning caged for the last like 8 weeks and this is exactly how I feel right now because I finally learned it, all of it. And this is the first jam track I tried it with and it was so fun and this the top comment. Wow
Your CAGED video was a game changer for me. Thank you for being you..talented, giving, generous and down to earth. I learned more from your tutorials in 2 weeks than I had in 10 years, thank you so very much. You are an excellent Teacher. 🍎🥟
started playing along with this track this morning, first time to play with a backing track, got lost in the zone. I was the lead guitarist on my classical guitar. late for work.
Ayee, Hahah I’m just starting rn. And I feel better when I’m playing guitar with this backing track. I random fretting. Can u give me some tips to understand this track
It's been 8 years since I started playing from open chords to bar chords to simple solos i was fed up of imitating other artist's work and now finally i am here trying new things. I am in love with my guitar all over again. SPJ you the almighty.
hope you one day do more of these, if not. i will cherish this one. very few chill 2 chord backing tracks in ALL of youtube. i keep coming back to this.
Scott your such a good teacher, so clearly understood and easy to follow along. I’ve learned more from you in such a short period in time, than I have in the last five years of frustration.Thanks Scott
Finally. Jam tracks that Just focus on I-ii, or I-V. These are great and actually useful for learning your turnarounds. Love it. Keep it up. I'm gonna give you some recommendations.
@@SeattleJamTracks that would be amazing. I get a ton of questions on here about how to apply what they're learning. And most jam tracks are too complex for people just starting. I've been looking for ones just like this. Sending viewers your way.
this is really helping me build me scale proficiency and not only that is also helping me work on chord changes and is challenging me to find target notes and chord tones. its not the most musical thing i have ever played but im making it up on the spot and when it hits right it feels great. it makes me want to rewind the entire track and try to hit those target notes again
Scott, please do a video just you jamming to this song from beginning to end. Then we can try to get the same vibe you are getting. Once I got the entire neck figured out and almost without having to look, the next BIG thing is to get a feeling for the phrasing! I still sound 50% mechanical. Thanks so much!!!! Never thought I could do this...
I play the bass and I only know the A major scale so far and it’s extremely fun to mess around and play to this oh my god I’m literally having the time of my life
Bloomin' marvellous. Really enjoyed that. Adding to bookmarks. I played A Mixolydian and B Phrygian. Which sounded OK, though not sure of the theory behind that, but they had a lot of common notes whilst being based around A Major and B Minor.
hay man im jim thanks for all you do brother your helping me finally put it all together with guitar good vibes to you bro hope i can buy you a beer or two someday
hey , my friend just passed away & this is really touching my heart , im asking for permission to make a song with this . as all credits will be gave to you . R.I.P Donnie
I’m really happy for having found a teacher like you that have the ability to teach in a a way that anyone can learn the skills of guitar My English is not so good because I’m from Puerto Rico but I understand very well your lessons and have learned too much from you Continue being a professor like you are God bless you
Hey! I've got two videos on my main channel (Scott Paul Johnson) about it. I'd recommend watching videos in this order to understand 1. How to Make Major Scales on Guitar ruclips.net/video/PZr4frJtfd4/видео.html 2. Major Scale into Chords ruclips.net/video/MBr1D3Agn_k/видео.html 3. Live Lesson! Chords in a Key ruclips.net/video/KgEtzCb4P74/видео.html
I don't think you mentioned on your main channel that this is your channel too, you simply linked to this. You should encourage your subbers to come here and sub as well, and vise versa. Smart move making a separate channel for this. Keeps things tidy and increases revenue
Super cool stuff, new to music theory, not sure what the I-ii in A major means... is there a lesson on what it means and how/when to apply it? Thanks- Marty
in A major , the rest of the chord progression is Bm Cm D E Fm and g diminished ( which no one ever uses hahaha ) . So A major is the 1 chord , Bm and Cm are the 2 and 3 chord , D and E are the 4 and 5 chord and Fm is the 6 chord , hope that makes sense, also the way it is written , as in I ii , represents major and minor , so it would all look like this , I ii iii 4 5 vi
Bung! you’ve got it right except for one crucial thing: the key of A Major has three sharps, so the chords will actually be I = A major ii = B minor iii = C#minor IV = D major V = E major vi = F# minor vii = G# diminished You’ve got it, but you gotta make sure you make a major scale using WWHWWWH
Hi Damion - Roman numerals represent chords! Each of the 7 notes of a major scale can be made into a chord. The roman numerals represent each note of the scale, but as a chord. The A Major is the "I" chord because it's the chord based on the first note of the scale. The B minor is the "ii" chord because it's based on the 2nd note of the scale.
I know you probably won't read this since im two years late but the "I" means its the root (first chord in the scale). Its capitalized because its a major chord. And the "ii" means its the submediant (second chord in the scale). That one is _not_ capitalized because its a minor chord
So I guess this is it. All of it finally makes sense. It's not just random fretting on the fingerboard but something understandable and systematic. I never thought that I could play actually jam out. Thank you SPJ! This made me so happy to try.
I thought the same thing 😂
I know, it's crazy. I started playing the a major pentatonic on top of this and totally expected shit but it fits. It's so cool
I've been learning caged for the last like 8 weeks and this is exactly how I feel right now because I finally learned it, all of it. And this is the first jam track I tried it with and it was so fun and this the top comment. Wow
From Zero to feel-like-CarlosSantana because of SPJ.
Thank you so much SPJ.
These videosQ help me a lot. My leads to those don’t sound like scales anymore. LMFAO.
Your CAGED video was a game changer for me. Thank you for being you..talented, giving, generous and down to earth. I learned more from your tutorials in 2 weeks than I had in 10 years, thank you so very much. You are an excellent Teacher. 🍎🥟
I feel the same way!
Scott is phenomenon. Never thought I could learn and play guitar. Thank you, Teacher.
your music theory videos changed my life. thank you for being the only person who can teach music theory in an understandable format.
Thank you, Andrew. I really appreciate that.

@@robjulian6134 watch this mans video about the caged system thing. Look up SPJ caged system guitar and youll find it. Its crazy good

After all those months I finally understand what is Penta.. thanks SPG .. your the legend I finally understand now
i just jammed for the first time. i can feel the funk running through my veins
Scott your such a good teacher, so clearly understood and easy to follow along. I’ve learned more from you in such a short period in time, than I have in the last five years of frustration.Thanks Scott
This guy truely brings music all around the world
Finally. Jam tracks that Just focus on I-ii, or I-V. These are great and actually useful for learning your turnarounds. Love it. Keep it up. I'm gonna give you some recommendations.
Can't wait to do a lesson on how to go about using these videos to their full potential.
@@SeattleJamTracks that would be amazing. I get a ton of questions on here about how to apply what they're learning. And most jam tracks are too complex for people just starting. I've been looking for ones just like this. Sending viewers your way.
SPJ you are the most loved guitar teacher. And for good reason. I can't get enough of your videos. Will be joining your Patreon!
such a great track ! the peaceful video was awesome too !
This video is literally life changing for a guitar beginner.
It's really a great music Very cool and inspiring. THANKS Scott.
I watched ONE video from that Scott dude and OMG I just spent the last 2 hours JAMMING and having so much fun to all of these backing tracks.
Thanks for the ultimate jam track…. This brings out the best in me (something needs to!)
by far the most perfect guitar related channel. Please keep up the great work Scott. We all need you man!
You know a jam track is good when you could just listen to it on its own. :)
If you play any D note on the fretboard when the backing hits Bm, it sounds sweet . Good work Scott
this is really helping me build me scale proficiency and not only that is also helping me work on chord changes and is challenging me to find target notes and chord tones. its not the most musical thing i have ever played but im making it up on the spot and when it hits right it feels great. it makes me want to rewind the entire track and try to hit those target notes again
These tracks are fantastic. Thanks for uploading em
Just played over this on my alto sax. Learning to jam and this was AMAZING. Felt like i just wasnt understanding something until this.
Brooo you just changed my life man thank you 🙏🏻 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
These tracks totally rock! Thanks for taking the time to do this!!
Loving these tracks ... thank-you Scott!!
You are so welcome!
Scott! Thank you you so much. It all starts to come together because of you!
Hell yeah! Happy to hear that
One of the best backing tack in A that i have find until now! Absolutely brilliant!
This is so much, in so little. Thank you. 🙏🏻
This is how you get people to buy your patreon. You're a G
Your video on how to solo was a game changer! First day using the first practice technique. Fingers are real sore lol
Scott, please do a video just you jamming to this song from beginning to end. Then we can try to get the same vibe you are getting. Once I got the entire neck figured out and almost without having to look, the next BIG thing is to get a feeling for the phrasing! I still sound 50% mechanical. Thanks so much!!!!

BTW you are the best guitar teacher in the world! Qualifications: you taught me
I play the bass and I only know the A major scale so far and it’s extremely fun to mess around and play to this oh my god I’m literally having the time of my life
Just wonderful. Thanks.
Bloomin' marvellous. Really enjoyed that. Adding to bookmarks. I played A Mixolydian and B Phrygian. Which sounded OK, though not sure of the theory behind that, but they had a lot of common notes whilst being based around A Major and B Minor.
These 2 chord jam tracks are amazing, thank you for this!!!!

Man am just starting but feels so much good
this touched me deep in the heart
this is perfect for practice to solo of the greatful dead songs Althea and Sugaree

Excellent Scott, , , Thank You.
Well, i just have to know. Is the video time-lapse played backwards or is just standard video sped up and played backwards. I dig it.
Nice one
A cool trick also is using the F sharp minor scale over this... its the relative minor to A major!! Sounds sweet, let me know how it goes.
dude I literally just bought my first guitar yesterday and my fingers hurt so bad but you got me jammin up a storm over here 😂
Scott is such a legend
Where is this video? Theres something hauntingly beautiful about that view
My old house in Seattle! It was a beautiful day
@@SeattleJamTracks I remember when I lived Washington it was a fun time!
Useful, well explained. Appreciated
Beautiful. Thank you!
Can someone please, please... please tell me. Why the chord of B Minor goes good with a something in A Major? Thanks!

This helped a lot. Thank you!
Wow i love this tricks 😘💕
Chill. Thanks
Luvin it Bro should go to sleep but just wanna keep jammin
I finally feel like I can actually play and understand the guitar
nice very chill
For Spark Amp owners, you can search this video in the app, and get a little visual assistance on the chord changes!
Thats cool!
excellent

alguien sabe si los cursos están subtitulados al español?
love this backing track, are you selling it?
Super cool stuff, new to music theory, not sure what the I-ii in A major means... is there a lesson on what it means and how/when to apply it?
Thanks- Marty
I'm working on that lesson!
in A major , the rest of the chord progression is Bm Cm D E Fm and g diminished ( which no one ever uses hahaha ) . So A major is the 1 chord , Bm and Cm are the 2 and 3 chord , D and E are the 4 and 5 chord and Fm is the 6 chord , hope that makes sense, also the way it is written , as in I ii , represents major and minor , so it would all look like this , I ii iii 4 5 vi
Bung! you’ve got it right except for one crucial thing: the key of A Major has three sharps, so the chords will actually be
I = A major
ii = B minor
iii = C#minor
IV = D major
V = E major
vi = F# minor
vii = G# diminished
You’ve got it, but you gotta make sure you make a major scale using WWHWWWH
I found this track very useful as I can move from I to ii to I in triads up and down the neck. Do you have any more I-ii tracks in other keys? Thanks
Not yet, but that sounds like a fun idea
I see mention of a video that goes with this but I dont see it on the channel can I get a link?
ruclips.net/video/0Qp26KcDrGw/видео.html here is one of them
Till this day I use this jam track
amazing!!!!!
Can i ask for some clarification as to what is rolling across the screen. Is the scale changing from B minor to A major back and forth?
Hi Damion - Roman numerals represent chords! Each of the 7 notes of a major scale can be made into a chord. The roman numerals represent each note of the scale, but as a chord. The A Major is the "I" chord because it's the chord based on the first note of the scale. The B minor is the "ii" chord because it's based on the 2nd note of the scale.
Muito bom... Adorei
老哥你是真的强
can i request your jam in CAGED video
I'm still learning, what do they mean by A (I) and Bm (ii)? Do you have to play the A chord and Bm chord
try the scale
anyone else suddenly turn into hendrix when jamming to a track
Haha yeah
excellent to jam to
Chill
Can i use the CAGED System to this track?
Yes itll sound great the more comfortable you become
I can finally solo 😃
Why does this sound bad with the A minor pentatonic scale... thought that worked over A major... what am i doing wrong?
If you're using the G shape pentatonic scale, put your 4th finger on A, not your index finger... try that?
@@SeattleJamTracks Exactly. And practice th "sense" and sound of the major scale, tryn to end your phrases on the root (A)
iim is the most melancholy. Playing minor over a major scale gives you blues sound, which in my opinion dont fit here.
this jam track fuggin rocks
XD
all hail spj

Hi what does I ii mean
I know you probably won't read this since im two years late but the "I" means its the root (first chord in the scale). Its capitalized because its a major chord. And the "ii" means its the submediant (second chord in the scale). That one is _not_ capitalized because its a minor chord
