Very well done! Emily’s take on the blues here shows her sophistication and yet ease & cool. Thanks Chris for this unhurried breakdown of this soulful call & response tune.
Just a big fan of your tasty playing Chris. Keep it up! Getting a late start on jazz here, having been a rock guitarist most of my life but, inspired by your playing and RUclips channel.
I’m enjoying your videos , your calm demeanor and informative delivery. I recommend your videos to my jazz guitar students. Thanks, Chris! -Greg Hyslop
Just signed on to Patreon and kicking myself for not doing so sooner. Thanks for sharing your artistry and for teaching us so kindly and so effectively.
That was GREAT Chris, THANKS! I haven't been watching YT videos much at all lately, but I happened to check today and this was right there! Very cool!!!! Thanks again and cheers! MB
Wonderful playing and analysis of Emily’s sweet blues (I like the twists and turns). She was so awesome. I’ve never tried a tube of hers - I think I’ll go try it, Chris! I really enjoyed this🙏! Happy new year!
Found your lessons recently and, yesterday, joined your Patreon. As others have said, I like the accessible discussion of theory and choices that comes with the lessons, not just "put your index finger on this fret and play this note here," like so many others on RUclips. One small wish: the audio volume of your explanations on some of the lessons is little low. Wonder if there is a way to turn it up a bit. Thank you for the excellent material.
@@ChrisWhitemanGuitar thanks for the response. Currently working on mastering your versionof the comping for autumn leaves. I learned the easier version a while ago, but this one is a lot better. I like the concept of voice leading in comping. I'm completely self-taught, so it's slow going, but "the journey is the destination."
Wow, what beautiful touch and swing you have. I watched your other full solo for this song and loved it! Is that a Supro Blues King amp in the background?
Emily what a loss and she and her heart influenced me quite a bit though I cannot play that well in jazz She will always be a part of who I think about when I want to play jazz
hello, chris. when you’re improvising over bebop tunes do you consciously think of what notes to target? knowing the bebop approach, i tend to think rather than play (chord tones on the strong beats and chromatic notes on the off beats) it’s a bit of a math for me.
I am not thinking theory or note names at all while I am playing. Everything is pictures on the neck that correspond to sounds. I see visual pathways that connect the harmony.
Can I get the blues for herb on tablature? And possibly the theory on tablature like chord progression and scales etc? If you don’t do you know where I would find it? Thank you
Thanks for breaking this down for all us mere mortals!!!
My pleasure
Nice lesson. Herb Ellis would be proud of Emily's music! Saw Herb in the '70's.
Thank you!
You lucky devil! I wish i could have seen herb , joe or charlie play. What a treat!
Very well done! Emily’s take on the blues here shows her sophistication and yet ease & cool. Thanks Chris for this unhurried breakdown of this soulful call & response tune.

Thanks Pavel! I recently purchased a new audio mic, so future lessons should have louder voice audio

Look forward to learning this. Beautiful Epiphone. How does it compare with your Gibsons?
It is just as nice as any if my Gibson's. In fact it's nicer than a few of them!
@@ChrisWhitemanGuitar Thanks so much for replying. Wow, I must try one of these.
Wow, what beautiful touch and swing you have. I watched your other full solo for this song and loved it! Is that a Supro Blues King amp in the background?
Thanks Steve. The amp is a Vintage 47 va185G www.vintage47amps.com/VA-185G/
Emily what a loss and she and her heart influenced me quite a bit though I cannot play that well in jazz She will always be a part of who I think about when I want to play jazz
Sure miss Emily😢
Hey are you happy with Epiphone? I am looking for one too and was wondering how the playability and sound is?
It was a nice guitar. Played great and sounded great, but I ended up getting a Gibson Byrdland and selling the Epiphone
