  • @NEWCtheSHOW not one the best teacher on youtube

  • I love in the III - VI - II - V progression to make the chords:

    C#m7 - F#m7 - Bm9 - E11

    Im a bit new to jazz so I dont know if thats written the correct way, if not someone please correct me!

  • @soyellowsoviolent i'm sure he would if he didn't have a wife and kids :3 lol

  • This is absolutely genius, keep up the great work, Andrew!

  • Hi Andrew!!!

    Your videos are brilliant!!!!! I will get so much out of them.

    Thanx for doing it!!

  • wheres a good place to find voicings online>?

  • So excelent, thanks so much

  • @GuitarLove462 ok cool! Good luck!

  • @bnapoleonc123 I understand the theory. Just wondering about his guitar positioning. 

  • @GuitarLove462 I think you will find that Andrew is utilising chord tones for that solo, which basically means that while he may be using a basically pentatonic scale approack, each time the chord changes he deliberately lands on a note/notes that belong to that chord, thius always sounding "in key", so for example if the progression is Dm7 G7 Cmaj7 when the Dm7 chord plays you look to land on a note from the chord (D A F C), then a note from G7 when the chord changes (G B D F) etc
