footprints is a classic wayne shorter cut from the late 1960s. this guy is making it really complicated. so if u think this song has no melody your wrong! he's just making it his own and there's nothing wrong with that.
Some Jazz isn't really "musical" as far real mathematical harmony is concerned, some aspects are a bunch of mishmash & improve all over the place. There is a lot players with ability in chords, scales etc. but no compositional discipline. There are a few talents but mostly I hear the same thing from many ppl, they just can't get into it or find it boring.
i know lots of jazz that isnt "musical" but i think it requires allot of talent to make something that isnt diatonic to sound good. i have fooled around with chromatics and whole tone scales n such and couldnt make it sound very good.
Music isn't that appealing when 'anything goes". A lot of jazz isn't popular simply bcus it doesn't sound good. Of all common musical styles I found jazz is the least liked, specifically fusion & especially by women.
its the least liked because i find that its mostly only musicians that understand it. which is kinda wierd actually cause it doesnt follow any "rules".
Since you don't understand it, all of a sudden it has no melody, and no worth musically?
What a laughable logic train. Keep your 'facts' to yourself. Opinions are fine, but until you really know what you're talking about, stop imposing your opinions as facts, especially when you don't even understand what you're talking about.
My bad dude, or more, Youtube's bad i guess. The comment I posted was meant to be a response to someone else who was claiming that your playing had 'no melody' or something.
thats some sweet ass playing man keep up the good work ..... it is nice to see some one playing an 8 string without playing some crazy metal with so much distortion that you cant make out whats being played
well, thank you!, I really appreciate you comment, I've been playing 8 strings for about 5 years, and I would like to see more 8 stringers not so metal oriented... or at least playing without a pick, :P

I love how you can make an 8 stringed guitar sound like a guitar and a bass at the same time. The first time I heard them was from Meshuggah.
