by just watching this short video you can become aware of the height of this player but l took note 25 years ago and I remember me commenting... this is one of the best,roundest solos l've ever heard....Mr Forman is,without a doubt,one of the best musicians alive.. Mariano Vico Guitarist and English teacher from Havana Cuba.
iloverumi There is no notation for the lines, but Bruce explains the concepts well. Also, you can always use the free VLC player to slow down the video (without affecting the pitch) if you purchase the downloadable version (of the full video).
just a tip which you can obviously take or leave, but if you're trying to learn bebop language, it's really better if you try to use your ear and transcribe what you hear. you'll learn more rather than trying to source 'tab' or sheet music.
@@boidinktwistie4389 This is true but if you learn "concepts" such as "circling triads" and things like pivoting, it can be extremely helpful, and you will need examples tabbed out just to get your fingers around it. You're right though, the ear is the most important, that should always come first. Or at least ALWAYS be listening to that genre of music while you're trying to learn it. I found Barry Harris' teaching method to be EXTREMELY useful for me unlocking that bebop sound on the guitar. I was actually playing differently almost overnight from his methods, in a good way. Bruce Forman seems to have a similar style. I'd definitely recommend checking out his playing to anyone,
No one better than Be For Man to talk about Bebop!

Thank you
Circle the triad, cool
What's the chord progression he's playing over at the start?
Sounds just like it could be a 2 bar 2-5-1 but then resolves to a dominant chord instead of a major.
Can't do it. This stuff gets stuck in my head
Great vocabulary
is there notation or tab for these lines?
