Great info thanks for sharing "You da man!"
Great one! I'm all about the diatonic chord scales
Thanks, Garrett!
How about a break down of the movement & similar movements done in the very beginning of the video?
Cool idea. Maybe I will ... thanks!
Not to get off the main subject, but your mention at 6:28 of Jimmy Wyble and his insistence on avoiding the barre, which enables more melodic movement, as you demonstrate in going through the scales, made me think of a lesson I watched recently with Howard Alden, another Wyble student: Howard said he likes to omit the 5, as it doesn't contribute much to the harmony and then ran a scale using your finger-for-each-note method and moving from the seventh to the sixth on each chord. I immediately remembered the first use of this device I heard -- in Allan Reuss' solo in Lionel Hampton's record of "I Just Couldn't Take It Baby" (ua-cam.com/video/Rsy-kmvzw34/v-deo.html); it really got my attention. I've read, too, that George Van Eps was not a fan of barres. Obviously, they have their application, even in jazz, but can also be constricting.
Wow, that Allan Reuss solo is so nice! Yes: We can leave out 5ths without losing much harmonic value. Yes: Voices can move within chords-we don't have to think of chords as locked-tight grips. (George Van Eps dealt with such movement at length in his 'Harmonic Mechanisms' books.) Thanks for this.
