Jazz guitar ii-V-I (two-five-one) Jazz Pattern explained.wmv

[riverstrat]

Ok , I think I have it, first three are Gmin7 C7 Fmaj 7 and then so on up the neck.

These patterns are so cool and so easy to finger (the way you do it), takes just a few minutes to just about master them.

I guess this would be a major progression, could you also call it a I IV VII ? But I realize that probably isn;t right......

This really makes sense about jazz as an overview, I play different styles but now can mess around some ahd have fun with it.....

@riverstrat No, you can't call it a "I IV VII." In the key of F, the "I" is F. If the music starts on the ii, then it's starts on the ii, not on the I.

@guitarslim56

Ok, thankls.

[riverstrat]

Cool....

In the begining the 2 5 1 is a g , c and f , but what exactly are they ?

Thanks for explaining Two-five-ones in context with two great tunes. It's easy to get so caught up in theory that we forget that the goal is making great music.
