Re: CD sales vs pirate downloads.
Hi Will, That is fine, of course, if one is looking for excuses to steal. "Try a Little Tenderness" is now losing money due to theft. D'you want to explain that away with the hype of the big, bad

Re: Charlie Christian Licks
Well put - infectious, delightful - and the sound textures he squeezes out of that thing while remaining melodic! "Licks" was a dirty word among my jazz crowd a few decades ago - that was considered a

It was a great site. I do not know how legit it is but someone put together a pdf of the whole site. I will upload it to the file section. Mark

Re: Charlie Christian Licks
Been threatening for years to learn some of that stuff. It might sound corny at what passes for a blues jam today [ pentatonic string bending masturbation ] but it would fly at a jazz gig for a chorus

Re: Charlie Christian Licks
Goodman solos are so friggin' melodic. I don't suppose you could use his licks nowadays for a blues, they's sound corny, but it's so far beyond what usually passes for blues (non-bop) soloing

Re: Charlie Christian Licks
the absolute best resource i found was garry hansen's site, which seems no longer to be online; this site had the audio of each solo isolated, the transcription, and the tab, along with heaps of info

Hey Keith, I take quite a bit of it because it is not well absorbed in it's normal state. That would be ground root. I had been taking two caps a day for several years because I knew is was very good

Re: CD sales vs pirate downloads.
Will, I have to admit to being completely confused as to where you are coming from. Susan Boyle CD sales are a direct result of mass media marketing and corporate record company backing. Simon

Re: Licks and chord melody - books
This what I have always felt. It has never felt natural to me to play someone else's lines. Learn from it, adapt it, possibly, but if you do the work, and I admit I don't come close to doing what

Did it yesterday out of frustration. I have been using biab since about 95. I could not get the timing to come out right [swing] on the D C Bb section. I'm thinking of the acoustic version. It's been

Re: Charlie Christian Licks

Weidlich's The Guitar Chord Shapes of Charlie Christian is good for the nuts and bolts. Wolf Marshall's The Best of Charlie Christian is also good if you want transcriptions of his

Re: Licks and chord melody - books
I've found that I get very little out of lick books. There was one by Joe Pass that I looked through at one point. The reason behind even looking at it was to get some ideas on how to phrase melodic
