    40 years of guitar playing and jams, the conversation never involved modes. Phrygian on three, hit it.

      Sean Daniel it'd be especially helpful if you could explain how to jam rhythm over one chord rather than over a progression like this video. Bob weir is a great example of someone who can just jam in a key without it being a boring two chord progression the whole time

  • @kevinmeercat919
    @kevinmeercat919 5 років тому

    So if it was in the key of for example A you could play Dmaj 7 and E7 chords and use the same pattern starting on the flat 7th of the A scale ?

  • @redwalrustmnc5256
    @redwalrustmnc5256 7 років тому +9

    Thx this is great. I was going to ask why flat 7 gives it the mixolydian sound then I figured it out. I knew the chord progression should be in C. Then I compared the notes of G mixolydian in the key of C to G major and there was the difference: a flat 7..F# to F. I must be learning form your lessons..thx so much. I bought a Ditto looper because of Sean.

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому +15

      Man that's a good question, I suppose the answer would be 'anything'. Andrea's family comes from Italy and sometimes they do homemade pizza the real way, and it's like an out of body experience.

    Hey Sean, another great video! Question, would you mind make a video of a daily practice routine? I m getting a bit better at playing, but still feel my fundamentals are not as strong. I m searching for a routine of practicing some fundamental techniques. Keep up the good work my friend.

    • @seandaniel23

      Man I've gotta say QOTSA but I love all 4.

    • @robdy2k
      @robdy2k 7 років тому

      Kyuss were a huge influence on Jason Newsted and in turn Metallica. A lot of people dissed Metallica in 96 for ripping off the Kyuss / Homme guitar sound on Load/Reload. This was about the point when Homme became a cult figure really. A lot of that Desert Sessions stuff is really cool. Generator parties. Episode 5 of Grohls Sonic Highways is a must see for insight into that scene and what it created. Music geek heaven!

    • @robdy2k
      @robdy2k 7 років тому

      The Outlaw Torn and Fixxer are both great examples of Metallica demonstrating huge influence from the Kyuss/Homme Desert Jam sound.

    If I'm ever going to take John Mayer's job with Dead and Co., I figure I'm going to have to solo for at least 30 min. at a time. Problem is my fret hand tends to fall asleep around minute 10. Any good tips for keeping circulation in my arm on marathon jams?

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому

      Man that's a great question I'm not sure I'm qualified to answer! I usually don't consistently jam that long but whenever I have had fretting hand fatigue in the past I just kind of go one finger bar a couple strings at a time and work those pentatonic boxes. :)

    • @hippypaintball6966
      @hippypaintball6966 7 років тому

      If I could add my two cents, There are any jam bands who have two guitarists who can lead or who split the role of rhythm and lead guitarists. for example: Joe Russo's Almost Dead, Umphery's McGee, Moe. Anyways my point here being, if you are doing a long jam, give another player the opportunity to take lead on a Jam. Some of the best Jams from Col. Bruce Hampton and the Aquarium Rescue Unit Results in Otel (Now the Bassist for Dead and CO.) Going on a nice little Bass Solo. while they are going off on their little lead jam you can take a short break, especially if you have enough instruments.

    Hey Sean...I am a regular basis viewer of your contents...It helps me and encourages a lot as well...
    I have to ask you something..on how to find out the chords for a song on guitar..and how to transpose it from one scale to another for different vocalists..
    please let me know..so that it can make my performances good...for my singing...Thank you...

  • @wigleboy
    @wigleboy 7 років тому +5

    That was not really jamming guys, that was an academic mixolydian arpeggio. You should just be all over the neck in C mixo. It will sound kinda jazzy and is cool. Or, Jam in G major Penatonic,; It sounds great to the backing track...Jam bands are all over Penatonics.

    • @seandaniel23
      @seandaniel23  7 років тому +1

      Yeah pentatonics are always a way to go. Just wanted to introduce a circular mixo arpeggio and didn't really know how to name it :)

  • @milesparker3263
    @milesparker3263 7 років тому +1

    I think this what this lesson taught me was the theory behind a typical jam band session. Listening to jam bands makes me want to curl up in a fetal position with my hands over my ears. My own personal circle of hell would be to be trapped at a never ending Dead concert. Now I know why, thanks!
    Seriously, there is a very big difference between typical jam band noodling and the real deal. I mean thinking of creating music, working off of one another. Not just going along with whatever your fingers happen to be doing following some formula. That might make you some friends, and it might even get you laid but it isn't really MUSIC.
    Very few rock and roll bands actually jam in the Jazz sense. In fact the only band that I know who really knew how to jam improvisationally, consistently and brilliantly was The Allman brothers. Listen to them transition from You Don't Love Me/Soul Serenade starting around ua-cam.com/video/YA-dt4jDuPk/v-deo.htmlm9s. Like the moment Duanne pulls it over into the next tune at 8:38. Fucking incredible. That's not noodling.
    Any other examples of bands that can actually jam that people can think of?

    Love your stuff, Sean BUT (there's always a "but," right?), I think the title of the video should be "How to Jam Endlessly on Guitar (and probably bore everybody to death)!" Seriously, I've been a performer for a lot of years - I do busking, bars, private parties, studio work, host open mics, etc. Unless the gig is specifically billed as a jam session, NOBODY wants to hear guitar players jamming; they mostly want to hear someone sing songs, preferably songs they know. ;)
