Upper Manhattan Medical Group - Billy Strayhorn | Solo Guitar
Got hip to this tune last week after attending a jam here in SLC. Decided to make a little comping arrangement. This style would be best suited for playing with a bassist (duo/group) as I left a bit of space in the bottom end.

    Hi Chris! You just made my day! I have for years been very fond of Barney Kessel and his incredible guitar mastery, and the sound of the triads have fascinated me. However, I never really tried to figure out what he was doing. And here you come with the clear explanation. I thank you and will really start practicing. By the way, have you by any chance pdf files that show what you (and Barney) is doing?

    • @christianstrums

      The first shape (with low E in the bass) would be an Em11 (notes: E B G A D F#) but changes quality as you move it up the neck Major7/Minor(b6)/Lydian. Pretty useful “chameleon” shape.

    Barney Kessell and Herb Ellis played the King of France Tavern here in Annapolis, Maryland a lot for a long time. Herb actually lived here in town for several months. I did FM radio shows early-mid 80's with a focus on Afro-Latin jazz and fusion. I lost count after about 10 the number of Barney and Herb gigs I went to. I wanted to do a live telephone interview of Barney. He took about 45 minutes to tell me why he didn't have 10 minutes for an interview :) :) :) He's always been among my favorite guitarists. Thanks for this enlightening show, man.

      You bet! At least with Kessel, his approach on sixths is a lot more limited and he hardly played more than a bar. There are a handful of licks that I have found though! Might work as a little lesson in the future ;)

    Barney Kessel was probably influenced by players like Dick McDonough, George van Eps and Allan Reuss, who were all important acoustic guitar virtuosos of the swing Era. They were exceptional chordal soloists. On Electric guitar Oscar Moore of the King Cole Trio is an important influence of Barney's to check. His solo on the trio's take of The Man I love uses thirds and double stops extensively.

    do you have to beware of minor thirds ? can you just play the third relative to the note your playing or do you have to mind the key?

    • @christianstrums
      @christianstrums Місяць тому

      Gotta keep it in the key so you have to be aware of minor AND major for each lick. A lot of them just slide chromatic shapes but yeah still need to play both
