I was lucky enough to see and hear Jimmy Raney playing with Jack Wilkins and a bass player at the Zinno’s restaurant in New York City many, many years ago. What a treat it was!!
Great seminar. I was lucky enough to see Jimmy Raney with Jack Wilkins and a bass player at a small club in New York City many years ago. It was a wonderful evening!! What a duo!!
Great lesson, on the fantastic under appreciated Jimmy Raney. Made some great records that are always worth checking out. Great introduction to his sophisticated beautiful style of Jazz guitar.
Sorry about that! I’ll look into the ad settings to see if something is weird. On a side note you can download everything on Patreon so you can see and hear everything in guitar pro and on PDF’s.
Thank you for this video, I' m from Italy , I do not write well english. I would like to ask a thing that I have seen in a musical score Abersol of Mr.Raney. I hope you will bw so kind to answer. In the song Nowhere he write In notations the indications about the solo : USE CHORDS ON 2ND CHORUS FOR SOLOING I don't understand if for chorus He intended to play oon the second octave of the guitar ,or to play on the melodic line of the chords more large?
@davidsheriff9274 Billy Bean was amazing!! Those informal sessions with Pisano blowing on tunes.... no one else had that fluid articulation at that time.
Great lesson! Can you make a lesson about swing rhythm and how you make your playing more dynamic? Obviously you are not picking each note with same volume/ pressure. But I can't seem to figure out how you are making your lines sound uneven / syncopated. Please advise on your picking technique, accenting and swing rhythm. Thanks.
Thanks for your question and possibly in the future I might make that video. For now, I would say to try and bring out top notes of a phrase by picking the other notes lighter. Picking light and then picking a bit harder on accented notes will help (but not to hard where you are loosing tone).
Hi Dave thanks for your question! Actually no amp, just straight DI! I'm going into a pre-amp though (golden-age mkiii). I'm also running it though a compressor (golden-age comp 2A) and then have a small reverb unit in my signal chain so it doesn't sound so dry.
Great lesson! Many thanks. Have you ever heard of Sonny Greenwich? He has some interesting lines and concepts that would be fun to explore :-) Anything about Ed Bickert chord voicings would also be awesome. :-)

That was great. I love Jimmy Raney, he is a real unsung hero of bop guitar. His lines still sound fresh today.
I definitely agree!

Wow, that must have been fantastic! Definitely a little jealous haha

His lines are definitely sophisticated!
Terrific! I recently transcribed this (very accessible) solo, and this video adds helpful context.
It's such a great solo!
5:56 Shades of Peter Bernstein 👍 nice stuff as per usual man
Appreciate that!
Sorry, I already wrote this. Jimmy Raney’s son just published a book of Jimmy Raney’s playing!
Truly great man !
Thanks so much :)
Great. I was just getting into the video when a Qantas Insurance ad came and I couldn't get past it (it kept replaying). :-(

High time for a video on René Thomas, a disciple of Rainey by the way
Rene Thomas was great, how about Dick Garcia and Billy Bean, two more fine players.
Thank you for the suggestion!

Gran lección
Thank you!

Love the sound. What amp are you playing this lesson through? Are you adding any effects?

Are you Canadian, by chance ;) Sonny is quite the guitarist! Did he ever play with Oscar Peterson or Ed Bickert?
Thanks Steve! Will look into Sonny!
