Mister Cool - Smooth Jazz Solo

[MichaelsPortraits]

Absolute gorgeous phrasing , Beautiful marraige of Blues and Jazz phrasing....Diamond Dave here would have been a brilliant session Player for Steely Dan in their heyday....Which is perhaps the highest fucking compliment I can give a guitar wanker!.....love

[seuamiguin]

I feel like beeing on a movie theater waiting the film starts

[ravenshield56]

Want your Tele!!!!! ;D

[gaud2029]

I want an album with this kind of stuff :)

[Wallimann]

@gaud2029 Maybe next one? :-)

[cwalker67]

Great stuff Dave

[Wallimann]

@cwalker67 Thanks so much!

[hendrix0is0lord]

awww I thought this was Mista cool by the brothers johnson! this was still great though!

[Wallimann]

@hendrix0is0lord :-)

[moonshack965]

hey man , you are helping soo much.... an old tired dog like me

big inspiration...

thanks a lot

grazie

[Wallimann]

@moonshack965 Thanks!

[fuegofreak]

probably the first video I have ever seen with absolutely no dislikes, and for very good reason! I will be listening to this for the next hour.

Thank you for blessing my ears with this _______. [I have no descriptive words for this.]

[Wallimann]

@fuegofreak Thank you so much!!!

[radarTube]

really like mix of finger/chicken/pick techniques

\m/

[Wallimann]

@radarTube Thanks!

[radarTube]

really cool!

thanks for share it mate

[TiboukMusiChannel]

You've got to teach me jazz David :)

[Wallimann]

@TiboukMusiChannel You need to get my "Applied Theory For Guitar Players" on guitarplayback(dot)com :-)

[blukper]

@Wallimann David, what level would you say the "Applied Theory For Guitar Players" applies to. I'm someone who can riff my butt off but I need to learn the chords and how they all connect (all make sense). Do you think it will help me? Thanks man!

[Wallimann]

@blukper It's very easy to follow and progressive. However it focuses on scales more than chords... Still I think the info in the pack is a must for anyone wanting to understand what they are playing...

[Wallimann]

@guitarmageddonhax Thanks!

No, I use a Canon HD Vixia.

[BTXXXXXXX]

awesome playing! but why is axe fx so expensive!!!!

[Wallimann]

@BTXXXXXXX Thanks! The Axe is expensive, but not for what it is though... It's really amazing in my opinion. :-)

[seth3556r]

I want your telecaster. it's beautiful

[Wallimann]

@seth3556r Thanks a lot! It's an American Standard Tele.

[rockyanez1284]

dude u have the best licks ever :D

[Wallimann]

@rockyanez1284 Thanks so much!

[123cxcx]

you recommend me the evo for the neck or brige,?? giving the lead in brige or clean in neck? talking about evo

[Wallimann]

@123cxcx I only tried in the Bridge... I love it!

[MARK4625]

Great playing and IMHO currently the most entertaining and informative guitar channel on Youtube. Salut!

[Wallimann]

@MARK4625 Thank you!!!

[PDMartinWarnberg]

The best one you've ever played! If you ask me!

[jon109kick]

WOW! sounds like something you would listen to on hold with gibson, in an elevator or on the weather network! :p It's a great bit though!

[Wallimann]

@jon109kick Thank so much!

[Mirdasss]

Gorgeous! Salut !

[megaflurg]

I liked the little harmony lead at the beginning, kept waiting for more!!!!!

[oswa0714006]

What a great TONE!!!!!!!!

[prevomg]

Check your channel comments i have proposed something good :D

[docbobster]

How about a video on how you make your pick disappear and reappear so fluidly when you switch to fingers, and when you decide to do that? Thx!

[downhill240]

Smooth is the word here!

[PoonNasty]

Wow great job dude! Very smooth very tasteful

[Wallimann]

@PoonNasty Thanks!

[highrollerzzz]

Hey, Walli, what VSTi do you use for programming drums?

[Wallimann]

@highrollerzzz Addictive Drums...

[Diabolical93]

Love your phrasing

[Wallimann]

@Diabolical93 Thanks!

[gravityguitar91]

This is absolutely fantastic!

[thehuntz1]

Nice!!!!! Would've expected the sheraton for this one, but just as well! Can you suggest some smooth jazz artists? I'm having trouble venturing outside of Lee Ritenour...

[thehuntz1]

@thehuntz1 ones that are more guitar-orientated, I mean.

[Wallimann]

@thehuntz1 I just discovered a band called Four80East. You might like them!

[petepachio]

Breathtaking Dave..BTW..see ya @ NAMM I hope?

[Wallimann]

@petepachio IThanks so much Pete. I'll be there, I hope to run into you! :)

[sumayo2]

Nice, do you create your backing tracks on your own?

btw, I bought your "Applied Theory" about a week ago, and found it very easy to follow and apply, and very professionally done, good value.

[Wallimann]

@sumayo2 Thanks a lot!

Yeah, I make all the backing tracks.

[NAXAVI]

very nice sound and playing

[Wallimann]

@NAXAVI Thanks a lot!

[MrAmaj]

[cisco2fun1]

kinda borring... i hear this all day by all the jazz players ,, they all sound the same to me,,, nothing outrageouse about this playing!!! it is nice and clean , but thats just as clean as all the rest of the jazz musicians ,, nothing different to say WOW. what a sound or what a great interesting technic on the playing!!!??? knw what i meen !!!... just saying,,, no need to get bent out of shape about it either , it is what it is.

[skylinrg]

@cisco2fun1 isn't that that you just don't like this music genre?

[cisco2fun1]

[Wallimann]

@MegaCalvinHobbes Thanks!

[MrZlic]

natural! Unique, enjoyable, inspiring...

[supern00b]

[pletonicsolids]

[Wallimann]

@pletonicsolids What do you mean?

[pletonicsolids]

@Wallimann how long did it take you to make this video

[diazluisdiaz]

[Wallimann]

@diazluisdiaz No, it's all heavier stuff...

[diazluisdiaz]

is something on your new or old albums like this?

[Jarosch80]

Wonderful. I can't stop listening to it. :)

[dave22h34]

I love smooth jazz guitar ; That sounded great . Sweet telecaster too ! I could listen to that all day long . Thanks !

[Wallimann]

@dave22h34 Thanks!

[roccckkerrr]

my right foot went numb for a week from my slight leg crossed sitting like you in the right picture, be careful david!

[Wallimann]

@roccckkerrr It was starting to hurt too!

[MegaCalvinHobbes]

@Wallimann Imagine what us (I say us loosely, I very rarely do crossed legged, but a lot of us do it exclusively) flamenco players feel like. :P

[SidVicious10101]

I truly love your sound with the tele!!!

[AcDc109]

Acoustic Alchemy esque!!



[JDNDVS]

Great Phrasing David....Tasty!

[lideli0491]

Is it really necessary an Amp>Mic to record a pedalboard or can I plug the guitar to the pedalboard and then to the Audio Interface? I cant make noise where I live and I like better the sound of the physical pedals. what do you recommend? Btw awesome playing, love your tone!

[TommittajaFIN]

Okay, the name alone needs recognition of some serious magnitude. love it.

fine.. the playing is really awesome too.

[NickSandt]

That is slick playing!

[Sunburst27]

cool track, cool sound, grate soloing.... keep in!!!!



[disclosurenow9]

Nice, smooth ashey, maplely tone.

[luks361]

What a nice mood this track has...beautifull playing

[jparecki95]

Very nice, sounds amazing!
