Members Santuzzo Posted May 12, 2010 Members Share Posted May 12, 2010 I learned a couple new jazz licks yesterday.Awesome !Where do you get your jazz licks from? Do you transcribe them off records, do you learn them out of books or do you write them yourself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Floortom Posted May 12, 2010 Members Share Posted May 12, 2010 I've been trying to figure out Joe Pass's "Viruoso" arrangement of All the Things You Are but am on the verge of giving up. It's too damn hard for my ear to figure out and I cant find a decent transcription I think these Pass solo arrangements is biting off more than I can chew at this particular time Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Floortom Posted May 12, 2010 Members Share Posted May 12, 2010 That's a pretty big bite! Agreed. The stupid thing is that it's not even a style that I'm any good at, and I dove headfirst into it with this Pass arrangement:facepalm: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members GreenAsJade Posted May 12, 2010 Members Share Posted May 12, 2010 Sam Brown - Stop. I did a guitar version of the organ solo, and my band said "Oh, that is cool, lets make sure the keyboard guy doesn't try to take this solo next week" ("The keyboard guy" at the open mic is _really good_ so this really meant something!)

Moderators Jed Posted May 13, 2010 Moderators Share Posted May 13, 2010 Nice thread-idea! For me it may not make too much sense to post here everyday since I practice the same stuff for at least one week before I change material. I must be short-bus material, . . I've been working on the same stuff for months and months (er . . years?) now: Triad Arps > Pentatonic fingerings (common and non-common) Triad Arps > Mode / Scale fingerings (common and non-common) Triad 4-note voicings (9 inversions per string set) 7th chord voicings (4 inversions per string set) * drop-2 & drop-3 format Visualization and vocalization of the above in all keys and chord types. (Don't ask, I lost a bet with myself that I could memorize all of the above) Pretty boring stuff now that I see it written out. ( I sooo need a life!) cheers, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( I sooo need a life!) cheers, I actually, too have been practicing more or less the same material for months, but I do change the exercises or patterns.If I work on scales I might use different sequences after a while. If I work on jazz improv I change the standard I'm working on, etc. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

( I sooo need a life!)cheers, That's actually a big list Jed. No short bus needed.Every time I think I have the "basics" mastered I find 50 different uses that prove to me that i don't! Good on ya for "going deep" Often I wish I was disciplined enough to do just that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Virgman Posted May 14, 2010 Members Share Posted May 14, 2010 In a previous post I said I learned a couple jazz licks? But did I really learn them? Really? Can I play them fluently in several positions? Can I play them forward, backward, etc? At high tempo? No, I can't. To really know them will take much more effort.

Members mosiddiqi Posted May 17, 2010 Members Share Posted May 17, 2010 Today, I've learned that I'm going to miss Ronnie James Dio a lot. ..the stuff he did with Rainbow and Sabbath and his first two solo albums particularly were a major influence on me.
