Hi Will,
I really appreciate your video. This is a book that I worked on for some months but didn't know how to use it without cutting /pasting.
The comments that you put on the screen are very usefull but it's too fast at least for me to hear the part of the lick from the book and the part that you transformed.
May I ask you to do another lesson where you'd slowly play the same solo (or another) but demonstrating with your guitar how you used and adapted Greg Fishman's licks following "All The Things You Are" chords.
Best,
Jojo

Great news from things to come !
Thank you Will
-
Thanks for posting this. It's good stuff.
It should be noted that there is a version for guitar which has the great Chicago guitarist Mike Allemana playing the licks.
-
Yep Mike's excellent - in the video I mentioned and linked to the Guitar version and in this video I show people how to connect and develop the licks as many people seem to get stuck after they learn the licks.

Very intriguing concept you presented.
I am still wondering, are the solos in the two books the same? Does anyone know for sure?
(Now for the question that real Jazz guitarist don't like)
Does the guitar book have standard notation and guitar tablature?
Thanks!
-
Thanks. It's fun. The solos are the exact same. But for sax I have to transpose it via Transcribe! The guitar version has tab and standard notation in concert pitch. I bought the sax version of licks when it first came out and figured out where I like to play them which takes more work but it's fun. I'll be getting the guitar version sent to me so I can show it on camera when it arrives.

I got it yesterday and I love the way the licks sound. It is Jazz the way I like it.
It gives a really great explanation full of suggestions on how to use it, and the CD is a great aid.
Instantly, I am making great music and my mind comes up with all kinds of other musical ideas that go along with the same mood the lick imparts on the solo.
I am ordering the other book by this author right now.
-
I was thinking of getting the iPad app for this but is that going to require me to transcribe the licks into different keys?(ie it looks like the iPad app is written for sax.)

I just received the Etude book yesterday. Great material in here. Ordering the lick book today. Great post and thread.

Thanks.

Listened to the whole CD on the way to work this morning. Can't say I heard Blue Bossa, but some others are on here. Will try to sit down and catalog them assuming someone else hasn't already.
-
Here are the diffferent tunes :
- Halsted Street = Eb Blues
- Irving Park Road = Take The A Train
- State Street = Eb Rhythm Changes
- Waveland Avenue = Green Dolphin Street
- Fullerton Avenue = Bb Blues
- Belmont Avenue = Have You Met Miss Jones
- Grand Avenue = Out Of Nowhere
- Rush Street = Satin Doll
- Michigan Avenue = Bb Rhythm Changes
- Clark Street = Autumn Leaves
- Wabash Avenue = Body and Soul
12. Addison Street = Alone Together
Enjoy,
Jojo
