Thanks for the comment. Tal is one of my favorites too. I haven’t done a video on him although I would like to someday. Keep your eyes peeled for a possible future installment.
I really appreciate all these it’s strange because as a guitarist I use the Guitar as my main tool for arranging even in Ches and orchestral settings and find myself often writing especially for horns in stacked fourths :-)
Inspiring, Adam, thanks! Nice to tap back into this stuff again since my uni study days. Got me working my 'wrong pentatonics' over that A7, too (Gmin pent and/or Gmin7b5 triad/arpeggio). Been experimenting with that lately; these little clusters go well with it. ps, Robben Ford, often randomly in solos, or rhythm guitar back in his more fusion-y Miles Davis days. And...Joe Dorio?
Awesome dude! Glad you dug it. I agree totally with Robben but I wouldn’t put him in the category of using it extensively. Joe probably would more so fit in that category for sure.
Love the way your tele sound with those groovy sounds, will you please post the settings used though I know it depends on the amp and the pick up you have!
Thanks. I’m not using my Tele in this video. I don’t think I have any settings, really. I just use my ear to get the sound I want through any piece of gear.
Oh, I think you mean the Ed Bickert video. The same thing applies there too. Just use my ears. A big part of it is to roll 80-90% of the treble off on your guitar.
You would want to look into The best Canadian Guitarist ED BICKERT ! In another aspect Who can give me some insights on Ed Bickerts Chord Vocabulary I have looked around alot and had no luck.

Thanks for watching and your comment.
Great video. But I couldn’t tell too much difference between your quartered spread and traditional voicing chords. The quartered sounded a little more ambiguous I suppose. You have for sure practiced away sounding like a backing track guitar.
Erique, yes the quartal voicings are definitely more ambiguous. Those voicings might only have the 3rd, or just the 7th, or no 3rd and 7th at all. Those are the notes that make a chord identifiable. The modal voicings might only have #9-#5-b9 in it. Thanks for watching and your comment!
It’s been a while since I’ve heard that. And he could have been using some voicings like that for a certain song or recording, but overall Jim didn’t use those chords extensively. Thanks for the interest in my videos and for leaving a comment!
@@JazzRockswithAdam Right on. Thanks for taking the time to respond. Regardless of anything, I really appreciate you posting this video. Super cool stuff.
Adam Smale very good especially sharing this. However there some mistakes in the tabs you are showing. First one is with the A7alt one has a natural 9. In the licks of Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 you put 788 on the tab but it is 777. The quartel voices are good but you have too mention that some are the II chords or V chords and that is the reason that some sound a little bit different. This is no attack at you because i really like your video and really appreciate your lesson.
@@JazzRockswithAdam I understand we are al human so mistake is normal. I also studied quartel harmony on guitar for quite some time. I am also a big fan of Lenny and mccoy tyner. I think you are one of the best who is playing in his style. So keep.up the good work. Maby someday I will give also some lessons about piano style comping on the guitar. I have a quistion for you how do you play dominant 7 chords non altered in quartel voicings. By the way I am a professional guitar player. Hope to hear from you.
@@radjeshgopal2287 I play the same voicings I would use for a iim7. If you’re thinking G7, on strings 5-4-3, you could also play F-B-E. Again if you’re thinking G7, essentially, you could play on strings 5-4-3 again, bar the 5th, 7th, the one I just mentioned F-B-E, 10th, 12th, and 14th fret for G7/G9 sound. Hope all that makes sense.
@@JazzRockswithAdam Thank you so much. I have checked it out with the Em7b5 Chords from you and it really worked. They sounds very good. For years i was struggling with this. You have helped me so much, really appreciate this.
Check out the video I recently posted “how insensitive “ I’ve been using these originally called modal 4ths since the early 80’s thanks to John mehegan

Ed Bickert.
@@JamesSeaberry Actually, yes. At least somewhat. Not too extensively though. But indeed he did!
@@JazzRockswithAdam How could I forget!!! Lenny Breau!!
@@JamesSeaberry You’ll have to watch the video. 😉
@@JazzRockswithAdam I already bought the PDF, so....make a cup of tea and I'm ready!!
Great video thank you for sharing

Hi Adam, thanks for this great video. I get so much out of all your posts. Have you done a video about Tal Farlow? He is one of my faves. Thanks!
Thanks for the comment. Tal is one of my favorites too. I haven’t done a video on him although I would like to someday. Keep your eyes peeled for a possible future installment.
I'm enjoying exploring the quartal sounds, thanks fo}r your helpful lesson. Tim
Thanks for checking out the video, Tim.

Awesome! Glad you enjoyed the video. And instant way to sound modern.

Ed Bickert? Didn’t he play 4th chords?
Great lesson!
Absolutely! Thanks for checking it out and for picking up the lesson as well!

Ed Bickert used the quartal chords sometimes:)
Indeed!
I always think of Jim Hall. Am I wrong there?
TheloniousJ Jim Hall pretty much stuck to traditional chords for the most part. He was a fan of shell voicings too.
@@JazzRockswithAdam Thanks. I always thought he did this a lot on the duo album he did with Metheny (which is just incredible). Guess I was wrong.
It’s been a while since I’ve heard that. And he could have been using some voicings like that for a certain song or recording, but overall Jim didn’t use those chords extensively. Thanks for the interest in my videos and for leaving a comment!

Tony rice
@@elijahchen9486 Nice! I love Tony’s playing. I really should listen to more of his stuff.
Check out my friend Tom Lippincott for playing like this!! I am working long and hard on this lesson.
James, yes. Tom is a terrific player!
@@JazzRockswithAdam I'm working on doing lines and comping at the same time, like Lorne and Lenny. Its a Canadian thing?????????? 😜😜
This is a GREAT lesson.
@@JamesSeaberry Glad you dug it. And thanks for being an Insider at Patreon!
