Been checking out this guy on youtube lately, he's really quite good. Excellent chord melody player and smokin' single note lines as well. Anybody hip to this cat or heard him before?

He had a really hip solo guitar version of One Note Samba up and now I'm a little miffed that it's not on youtube anymore.

Yeah he's a jazz cat living down here in Brazil, very cool player, got a lot of props from some of the biggest names in the business, bright future ahead of him.

OH cool you live in Brazil. High on my list of places to visit. Will definitely make a point to check out some great Brazilian jazz guitar music while I'm there, and of course lot's of beaches lol.

Here's another video of Diego. That cool lick between 3:51 and 3:54 what's he doing there? ‪Diego Figueiredo - Take Five‬‏ - YouTube

I don't have my guitar in front of me so I'm not sure exactly, but it sounds like he's moving down the tritone, E-Bb-E-Bb-E, and harmonizing that with 5ths and/or 5th, 2 notes below each of those notes. So like E-Bb-E/Eb-A-Eb/Bb-F-Bb/A-E-A all the way down. Not sure exactly, but it's something like that.

Very cool line!

Now I have my guitar with me and it wasn't that hard to get this lick after all. Just a combination of 4th's and flat 5th's moving from one chord tone and resolving to another. His fingerstyle approach helps on that lick for sure. It's gonna take a lil practice to get the phrasing right with a pick. Cool lick though I'll get it.

WOW then there's that other fantastic lick he does from 4:23 to 4:32. Now I gotta figure out how he does that thing. Nice stuff

Why is this thread called:

Is this his name? Or has he come up with a new definition of reharm?
