    Excellent! I learned something new today - playing in big band jazz doesn't mean learning a zillion chords.

    I have changed my dance band comping to your system. It's very clever and your book about it is excellent. Thank you!

      Thank you for the warm words. Please keep in mind: it's not my system, I just studied some of the best rhythm players and brought to paper what I found out...

    Nice library! Look how many books have the word Jazz on the spine. I recognize and own many.

      Use the augmented triad and its inversions on string 6-4-3 (it will repeat itself after four frets) or you play the dominant 7th chord from the root without the fifth or with the #5 on the B-string (exception to the rules!)

    Chords with the seventh on bass or not used?

    • @uhoffmeier
      @uhoffmeier  7 місяців тому +1

      Chord invention with the 7th on bass are usually not used for rhythm guitar in four-to-the bar-style. But of course I do use them when I play more modern comping rhythm or use drop-2-voicings.

    Really nice demo of the nine chords. I hear them but I am a visual learner. I too would like to know the email address where I can ask for your pdfs. They remind me of the Mickey Lewis 4 note chord voicing but these are much more suited to the Big Band Swing voicing.

      @@uhoffmeier of course I do. Mick Lewis is a wonderful clarinet player I have worked with over the years here in the greater Metro Toronto area. I have Mickey Baker’s 33 chords photocopied, attached and hanging from one of my music stands for reference. Mostly I play electric bass, double bass and fifths tuning on tenor banjo, tenor guitar and mandolin. I need another 68 years to learn everything I want to learn. I am a reformed clarinet major.
