Hi Rodrigo!

Charlie Parkers' "Au Privave" is something like this. On
school I used to play it in both the original progression as
in the traditional jazz blues progression, and it works too.
If you think in functional harmony you're gonna see that its
the same thing.

Abrao, Eric.

Thanks for the tip about the Metheny site - lots to read
there. How can anyone doubt he is the 'Main Man' of jazz
guitar in the last 20 years ?
I can doubt it. I think he is great, but I wouldn't give him
THAT label. If anyone should ge that label it should be Jim
Hall.

Just my $.02

Hey people

I listed to a song yesterday called "spring is sprung" by
mulligan and it's a blues like that:

| C7 | Bm7b5 E7b9 | Am7 | Gm7 C7 |
| F7 | F#dim | C7 | Em7 A7 |
| Dm7 | G7 | C7 Am7 | Dm7 G7 |

Can you tell me what other standard tunes have changes
like that??

Thanx a lot

Hi Vitor

A good book as a springboard for some new ideas is:

Melodic Chord Phrases by Ron Eschete

It was/is published by REH Publications
ISBN 0-943686-08-3

I believe some other publishing company is
now publishing it. Search on the web and see
what you can find.

alternate-consecutive picking

Jay Jessup
 

Me again,
I assume this question will draw some responses like
whatever works for you but having spent the last few years
learning the mandolin (bluegrass, old time fiddle tunes etc)
where alternate picking (down on the one and up on the
and)is almost a religion and the picking motion comes almost
solely from the wrist, I find the method proposed by Chuck
Wayne in his book on scales very interesting. If I
understand it correctly he gets all his picking motion from
his finger joints and not his wrist and depending on the
scale and which way it is heading he will play consecutive
down-down or up-up strokes when changing strings. I assume
this is only for single note work, I don't know how you
could get a good rhythm sound and feel without playing form
the wrist. My question is, how common is this approach among
the jazz players? Is it more something that some guys do
some of the time or closer to most guys do it all the time?

Thanks, Jay Jessup

Hi Folks,
Just joined this group yesterday and I have a few questions.
First about me, I played music for a living from 75 till 82
with pedal steel guitar being my main instrument but I also
wound up playing lead guitar as well as banjo. After I
retired in 82 I didn't touch an instrument for about 10
years but over the last eight or so years have slowly begun
to get more interested in playing again when I have been
able to find the time to practice. I have been a subscriber
to Just Jazz Guitar for about four years but really haven't
been working on jazz at all other than collecting some good
cd's and doing some listening. I have been working pretty
hard on the mandolin the last few years which has at least
presented me with the oportuninty to get out and play with
some folks at jam sessions a couple of times a month when I
can get there.
Enough about me now question #1 I bought a instruction book
on scales by Chuck Wayne a few years back, in this book he
refered to some other books in that series that I assume
were to follow that book, did he ever publish those and if
so where can I get them?

Thanks,
Jay Jessup

Hey Josh,
You can contact Goodrich here:

He teaches at Berklee too I think.
Jim Kelly is a great player/teacher
in that area, too. You can probably
throw a rock and hit several great
guitarists anywhere in Boston.

Re: Kind of blues

Brad Rabuchin
 

A couple of common ones are:
Blues for Alice-Charlie Parker in "F"

Bluesette-Toots Thielemans, a 3/4 blues usually in "G"
or"Bb"

Also check out the A section of Parkers' tune
Confirmation for the use of similar changes in an AABA
32 bar form.

Re: Other Mick Goodrick records?

Vitor,
Check his CD "Sunscreams" (RAM) with Jerry Bergonzi, Bruce
Gertz and Gary Chaffee. He has another CD under his name,
"Bio Rhythms", not so good, IMHO.

Also on Gary Burton's "Dreams So Real", "Ring", "New
Quartet", on Harvie Swartz "Arrival" (w/Abercrombie too), on
Jack DeJohnette's "Irresistible Forces" and "Audio
Visualscapes", and in duo with Joe Diorio "Rare Birds"

So for cycle 6 you be doing on the piano something like:

C-E-G-B (Cmaj7)

Fmaj7 here, which would mean something like: C-E-F-A but more like C-
F-A-E to remove that nasty minor 2nd.)

What voicing is next? Which chord?
Yes that's an F Maj, but make it an F Maj because that E voice is not ready to move yet:

C E F A is FMaj
C D F A is Dmin
B D F A is B -7b5
B D F G is G 7
B D E G is Emin
B C E G is C Maj again only voiced with Root in second voice
A C E G is Amin
A C E F is F
A C D F is Dmin
A B D F is B -7b5
G B D F is G7
G B D E is Emin
G B C E is C again this time with the Root in the 3rd voice
G A C E is Amin
F A C E is F
F A C D is Dmin
F A B D is B-7b5
F G B D is G7
E G B D is Emin
E G B C is C again this time root in top voice
E G A C is Amin
E F A C is F
D F A C is Dm
D F A B is B-7b5
D F G B is Gm
D E G B is Em
and then we're at the start of the cycle again where you began. Whew. You see? It all works out and you go through all the voicings for each group and for each chord. Pretty neat eh? Now I've really got to get back to practicing. Let me know how this works out for you and if it makes sense musically and to your ear.

The method involves the consistant movement of voices based
on the root movement involved. There's a different formula
for cycle 3 (movement up a third) than ,say, cycle 6.

Try this:

Take a chord voicing that consists of any 4 part 7th chord.
You can choose one any of the permutations that you want.
For cycle 6, movement up a 6th (C to Amin) the 1, 3, and 5
stays the same. The 7th ALWAYS comes down a space of 2
steps. This will yield an A min chord voiced in a way where
a minimum of voice movement has been used. Try it. It will
cycle around the diatonic harmonized scale until it returns
you to the starting point.
So for cycle 6 you be doing on the piano something like:

C-E-G-B (Cmaj7)
C-E-G-A (Amin7)
C-D-F-A (F6 or Dm7?--normally for the harmonized scale you'd have
Fmaj7 here, which would mean something like: C-E-F-A but more like C-
F-A-E to remove that nasty minor 2nd.)

What voicing is next? Which chord?

Could you just jot down one cycle 6 for C so I can see what you're
talking about?

Thanks!

Can I second Pauls request, having recently recorded some gigs and
rehearsals I would have to say that I'm disappointed with the lack

lessons that were discussed in recent postings and I totaly agree
with what he was saying about the need to get inside the rhythm
rather than floating above (or in my case sometimes fighting it).
Could I request some thoughts on how and what
to practise to develope that sense of playing within the rhythm.
Paul like you I find it harder as the tempo increases. I'm sure we
cann't be the only ones.
After some serious playing and listening last night, I've come to the
conclusion that most jazz guitarists _can't_ play uneven eighth notes
at very fast tempos, the way most sax players can. My solution is to
simply play fast lines straight but a little bit behind the beat --
if you can synchronize the weak eighths with those in the rhythm,
your lines will both swing and be "inside the rhythm" while still
containing equal note values. I've heard various jazz instumentalists
use this technique from time to time.
