  • Here are some basic jazz lines that help the beginner outline the changes on "Autumn Leaves". The lines outline each chord and I demonstrate the concepts involved in creating the lines. The jazz vocabulary shown here is developed by targeting chord tones as well as using lines that highlight the color notes of the jazz chords.

    Very informative and well explained. I've been teaching myself to play guitar since I was 13 years old 55 years ago. I've spent several tens of thousands of hours puzzling out music theory. I was a big time George Harrison fan when I started teaching myself guitar -- with the guidance of a chord book I got for Christmas. George's post-Beatles songs feature gorgeous chords -- extensions, augmented and diminished chords.
    Anyway, the point I'm trying to get across is that, even though my guitar is currently vacationing at the local pawn shop spa I understand the neck of the guitar well enough to follow this lesson without a guitar in my hands. Thanks.

      I don't think the purpose is beginner guitar or beginner music theory, but beginner jazz, which is learning how to solo over jazz chords.

    What's so bad about using your thumb? It helps conserve energy when I'm playing four hour gigs, and I like hitting open strings whenever I can. The thumb allows me to play some dynamite stuff. Guys who criticize the use of the thumb don't know jack sh*t. Great lesson. Much obliged.

    • @AndyDacoulis
      @AndyDacoulis  5 месяцев назад +1

      Yes, I agree with you. I find it comfortable to use the thumb for certain voicings and it frees up other fingers for extensions.

    I think the people saying "this isn't beginner level" are confusing beginner Jazz with beginner guitar. They're not the same. You don't start with Jazz if you are just a beginner at guitar.
    That's like trying to learn how to dance before you're even able to walk.

    I've got a question that I'm hoping someone can answer, because I've seen this before. So, for example, the Cm7 chord he plays, he only uses strings 6,4,3,2 - missing out strings 5 and 1. That shape is taken from the Em7 barre shape - so why not just finger the whole barre chord, rather then the fiddley shape he uses, having to miss out the fifth string. And even more confusing, he clearly strums the whole chord, including the 5th string which is supposed to be missed out.
    You can still pick the strings using those strings, but it's a lot more natural to hold that E-shape barre chord.... I do hope I'm making sense!
    Help!! Thanks in advance... 👍🎸

    Not out of inability to transpose, just pure bloody laziness on my part. 🤪
    Nah, brother, I use both thumb and trad depending on the situation. Thumb is cool. Economical. 👍👍

    Thanks for sharing, Andy. I'm a new fan, subscribed and been watching your other vids. For the EfMaj7, would it be wrong to add the "B" ? ie EfMaj7/B I know it's not part of the orig song but to me sounds "ok" to incl .. sometimes 'yes' and sometimes 'no'. Thx again for sharing your knowledge ! Fr MB.

    • @AndyDacoulis
      @AndyDacoulis  5 месяцев назад

      Hi there - I probably would not add the note B to the Ebmaj7. It ends up being the #5 which is a bit tense. However, if you like that sound, you can play a G triad on the Ebmaj7 chord to get the 3rd, #5, and maj7 in an easy shape. I do this from time to time. Try it out!

    I have to ask you a suggestion, if I may: I would like to transform Slabo day, by Peter Green, into a jazzy progression. It;s Am, F, G Am. How would you do that, in a way that the original solo still fit ? Thank you very much!

    • @AndyDacoulis
      @AndyDacoulis  3 месяца назад

      I suppose the first place to spice things up would be to add 4-note chords to the progression: Am7, Fmaj7, G13, and Fmaj7. You can still play the original solo but the harmony behind the solo will be a bit more colorful

    Since the Real Book for C instruments is not written in the oath we see for standard guitar notation, what we see as C4 in the Real Book, would be what standard guitar notation writes as C3, is this correct? So if we are used to reading in standard guitar notation, we need to play the melodies an octave higher than we would normally play, correct?

      I have been playing guitar for a very very long time. And they always love jazz. I just was always so intimidated by it. I’ve been playing in a cover band for a few months and it’s starting to feel like I’m so much better than what I’m playing. Not like from an ego standpoint but from a point of I can be doing so much more and really following where my passion is. So I’m starting this journey on learning, jazz chords and improv stuff.

    • @AndyDacoulis

      Ebmaj7 is part of the standard chord progression of the song. The G7(#5#9) is functioining as a Dominant 7 chord of Cm7 (the start of the progression). I should have made that point a little more clear in my explanation. Thanks

    Too mechanical . The name of the game is to play freely and creatively as the song is in progression. So the best way is to learn licks just like rock. For instance, Larry Clayton never plays the same solo progression twice. He may play the same song over and over, but always different note soloing. Basically your lessons are useless.
