    I just watched an interesting hour-long video with Frank Vignola demonstrating his approach to chord-melody and responding to questions.

    It makes me want to check out more chord-melody teaching and playing videos. Since there are so many videos on YouTube, some better than others, I’m hoping you’ll save me/us some time by linking to some of your favorites.

    Great lesson, love his nice laid-back groove. And it makes me want to pick up an easy playing strat like his. It's definitely a lot more challenging to do that on the nylon classical I play.

    You should check out Robert Conti's videos on chord melody soloing.

    One is called The Chord Melody Assembly Line and the other is called The Formula.

    Tim has such a strong pulse going though his lines that it creates the space/s for the melody to naturally fall into - wicked playing !!

    I know this relates more to soloing, but...

    Thanks for the correction. I'm glad I didn't run out and buy a Strat.

    Two words. One name.

    Chris Whiteman



    I watch through his Playlists all the time and occasionally order some of his arrangements. He is a true inspiration. Impeccable taste and clean technique.

    He has some good introductions to each video on our website.

    Whole site dedicated to Ted Greene one of the masters. Lots of transcriptions/lessons/theory from standards to classical roots to ..... I have been working through the blues based stuff as a place to start but the resources go on and on and on!!! It is not structured so you need to be your own guide but it is all there!!

    For anyone wanting to learn or brush up on their chords, Rodrigues has a variety of video/pdf lessons (for a fee) on his site. I'm going through the intermediate lesson and it's excellent.

    Jim Hall did not do much solo guitar playing (at least on records), but here he is playing Duke Ellington all by his lonesome:
