Frank Gambale / Acoustic improvisation /1

Frank Gambale's "Acoustic Improvisation"s DVD follows the success of his first acoustic trio recording, "Natural High". This video features his trio, Natural Hight Live, with Otmaro Ruiz on piano, Alain Caron on bass, and Frank on acoustic guitar. After blowing through seven jaw-dropping performances with his world class band, Frank sits down for a candid one-on-one session about jazz improvisation. Using the changes to "All The Things You Are" as a foundation, Frank teaches a series of ideas for improvising over classic ii-V progressions using 3rds and 7ths, chord extensions, Phrygian, super Locrian. and diminished ideas. Frank incorporates rhythmic and melodic motifs and much, much more.

Yes, a Yamaha - knob head and doesn't it sound the bollox?! Frank played Yammys for years just as brilliantly as any of his Ibanez or Carvin guitars. He can make ANY guitar sound just the way he wants. Yamaha make some very good guitars. Don't knock 'em till you try 'em.
