Jazz Guitar Lesson: 2-5-1 Line in Am

View tabs @ http://www.freeguitarvideos.com/LJ3/251-Am-free.html

2-5-1 Line in A Minor is a free jazz guitar video lesson by Guy Fenocchi that will teach you a jazz guitar lick. This line spans over 2 measures, the 2 chord and the 5 chord shared the first measure, and the 1 chord resolves the second measure. We'll discuss how to play this lick in detail and also touch on some music theory.

thanks for the videos , theyre very helpful and to the point , which i like . the " line" in this vid sounds great and is simple to follow .

however in this vid you didnt show the fingering of the chords and it is alot of work to find the voicings elsewhere . the Bm7b5 is easy enough to get on the vid but the E7b9 escapes me as well as your voicing of the Am . am i missing something because your nowhere near the f note ( b9 ) in your E7b9 example . please share ...

@ge0metr1x it's not really an arpeggio it's more of just a line to use while the 2-5-1 is playing behind you. when you land on the g sharp note you should be hitting the 5 chord. here is a good 2-5-1 backing track on youtube that i use to practice over

thanks for the great lessons. I'm new to jazz music and am wondering when would be the appropriate time to use this arpeggio? Before, after or in between the chord changes?
