I'm going to work through this book so when I pick up a high end jazz box at the Guitar Center I have something to play other than Good Times Bad Times, no but seriously this video inspired me to learn some jazz, I'm done with my rock/metal phase

@WoWintosh Hey, I like 'Good Times, Bad Times' just as much, but in a different way. Never tried it as a chord melody piece though.

[debussy2002]

Lovely sound, all the right notes/chords.......but souless, like a sequencer. Played parrot fashion from notation or tab, have a few drinks - -play a simple blues - -see what happens.

[bleakanddivine]

How would loosening up and playing a soulful blues instead help anyone working through the JP book and learning to play this specific written out exercise?

@jsm355 This isn't a band piece, it's arranged for solo guitar.

Great sound, great playing and needless to say a great number! You inspired me to post a version of myself playing the same great composition. I hope that you like it.  Best wishes, Dave, (Small Days)

superb!..gorgeous playing! great tone too! takes a lot of heart and soul to learn a Joe Pass solo! (that's why the negative comments usually come from the lazy with no uploads of their own playing "after a few drinks":) and with 13 total upload views (i get it all the time Lol!) if you can play joe pass... there's no where you cannot go..just a matter of choice and taste..Benson,Hendrix,Gambale? you already have the work ethic! Enjoyed :)

Beautiful guitar... :-) And playing.

[stratcatavarious]

really nice interpretation

Lovely indeed

Great job! it´s such a difficult piece that just getting though it is an achievement. If you practice it until your fingers bleed ( you know what I mean) then maybe in time you can play it so it flows like Joe. it´s not just a question of imagining a band or having a few drinks.I enjoyed it anyway.

@bleakanddivine It's not just carved - it's spruce instead of maple on 175. And it has ebony fingerboard, and neck pickup closer to neck (there's a gap between neck and neck pickup on 175).

Great guitar by the way ! ))

Good playing too )

@debussy2002 it's obvious that the performer is a student of jazz guitar, and has done well to complete the composition, you've made quite an ignorant comment/ observation, have a few drinks? what are you on about? debussy you fool

[scooteroo]

Forget the moronic comments by wanna-be players. Sounds very nice to me. Well done!
