This lick is a must know. It is a famous jazz lick straight that I first heard Barney Kessell use on a recording. The lick starts on the 5th then a chromatic pattern leads you from the D note up to the E or third. The phrase ends with another essential lick that ends on the 9th or 2nd or D note. Try this one in other positions to enhance your knowledge of this lick and your knowledge of the fingerboard. And always be able to sing the lick to help you internalize it.

  • I thought that this would be some smooth Jazz rubbish, but this is the real deal!

  • Using the sixTH

  • @musictakeslife

    I think the lick starts on 1 and runs for two full measures ending on the third beat of the second measure. Hope this helps : )

  • Thanks : ) That's a tasty lick.

  • @willy1986tralara Play it over a D9 chord (or D7) and listen how cool. Works nice with D13. Could work over Am, Am7, Am9 Might vary the rhythms of the notes to fit the groove, but it can work in blues.

  • @dressedtosmellgood --that has me puzzled also -- he spends all this time talking about how he learned it from Barney Kessel -- then just before playing it, gives credit to Billy Mitchell! HUH???

  • Does anyone know where 3, 4...etc. are?

  • @natfunk71 Just like when that bucktooth kid beat Steve Vai playing classical music or Hetfield yelled 'Fire bad!'... somewhere a conspiracy angel gained it's wings...

  • nice

  • I've really been enjoying these videos. Lemme ask you, if you're actually around to reply, would this package be useful for an amateur guitarist who wanted to work some jazz into his blues?
