Jazz Guitar CD & Guide by Carol Kaye self-tutor (Jazz Education Self-Help, Beginning Jazz for Guitar)
A great self-help, honed over decades of top professional private teaching and playing.
Carol Kaye was popular bebop jazz guitar soloist with top LA Jazz VIP musicians in the 1950s.
Jazz was created from Standards chords, and how those chords moved.
Learn how to forget the later-invented note-scales, they don't work! Never will work, that's not how jazz was created.
Feel comfortable with the right language, and playing the studies indicated with fingerings to train your ears to hear chordal tones, the cycle, back-cycle, b5 etc. then move on to Pro's Jazz Phrases and Joe Pass!
Primer for the guitarist who wants to learn the real jazz with chordal tones, substitute chord patterns, learning the intervals and how you create solos the way real jazz musicians did in the 1960s (they used chordal tones and sub-chordal tones, never the traveling note-scales for ideas). Learn your basic chordal notes, and how chords move, how you use dim. chords for 7ths, how to pair the ii-V7 chord patterns, all the basic fine studies to tune your ear for ear-fingers connections to automatically know what to play. This works, and is a good bridge into the Joe Pass Guitar Style. All Books, CDs and DVDs are non-returnable.
