Hi, I actyally recommand to follow this teacher, the best jazz teacher I ever met. All his lessons are very well made as his e-books, easy to get, a master way to learn to play music, with Glen's methods.
Great lesson Glen. Thanks I bought your Gateway to Jazz book a few years ago and found it very useful. I would recommend your teaching to anyone . Thanks
Hi Glen, using your gateway workbook on and on I found -by ear- that the first four chords of CAN’T HELP LOVIN’.. are a rhythm change. Hey, this makes me proud and this shows again how excellent your method to step into jazzy music is. And this video is great and fun, see the comment below. All the best, Martin.
Wow I'm playing ukulele since 2017 but i didn't know this channel existed. I like jake shimabukuro at first then lean more on james hill jazz style. But after some realization i want to try low G and then this channel appears. When the student is ready the teacher will appear indeed
Great stuff Glen.. Thanks so much for this lesson.. You have led me to the secret that will help me keep playing for many years to come after years of minimal improvement.. Thanks..
Hi Glen. I'm an aging Kiwi folkie, who has branched out in my own finger style way, playing jazzy and latin songs, mostly by ear. Yes I get confused looking at jazz sheet music with chords, that I don't think I know. This vid, has unlocked heaps for me. Thanks so much. It's also made me realise, that I already unknowingly, play quiet a bit of it, sort of in different ways. Purely through my own experimentation. Thankyou so much.
Thank you Victoria. I hope you will find some helpful things for your solo gigs. You should be able to play most standards with just these chord shapes. Use the irealpro to transpose songs into your singing keys. If you have any questions write to me at...... Glenrose88@yahoo.com
Great method, thanks. The bass note on strings six and five facilitates walking bass, especially for solo guitar. I prefer to use minor nine and major nine chords (when the bass note is on the fifth string). For instance: Dm9 - G7b13 - Cmaj9. I also like to add the note b13 to the dominant chord of II - V - I, because it brings more tension and creates chromaticism in the higher notes (E - Eb - D). I also like chords with three voices, for instance, the Cmaj7 is C - E - B (with the root on the 3rd fret), or C - B - E (with the root on the 8th fret). I believe that big band jazz guitarists played this type of chord. Basically, chords that omit the fifth.
Glen, praise the Lord . At last someone who cuts thru all the BS jargon & moreover, accepts & promotes that guitar sounds are (sometimes) are just 3 or 4 strings. Its in the other instructors interest to keep in complicated
Glad you like the lesson. It's for all the talented self-taught guitarists with nimble fingers and great musicianship who didn't and don't want to go down the music theory path just to play standards from fake books.
Hi Glen, this is a very good add on to your excellent book and your videocourse I bought on jazzy guitar some years ago. I used the book in the same way as you describe in part 1 of the new series. Of course I made much more with the book as it gives you much more to make the guitar sound jazzy and to sing beautiful standards. I play major and minor patterns in A-mode and B-mode and the deminished chords A and B version. I also use iRealpro as you advised. My lack are 6-chords im version B and slash cords. What would you propose? Btw I never expected to play jazz before I met you. All the best, Martin Rose.
Hi Martin. Thank you for the nice words. When you get to Part Four of the new series I show how to practice all 6 chords in two positions starting from any fret on the E string and the same on the A string. I also get into and explain the so-called slash chords in Part Two. Playing the chords in both A and B shapes makes things a lot easier because you don't have to jump around the neck when you don't want to. Practice makes perfect!
@@glenrose7925 Hi Glen, thank you for your quick help. I just got part 4. I'm having a late breakfast today, my iPad in front of me watching part 4.. I l😍ve it!

Thank you for bringing it to my attention. I looked and you are right. It is a printing error on the video and impossible to fix at this point! I will try to make a notation on the video or in the description to point it out to others.
Glen just pickup your book and I didn’t the the chord diagram pages in the back. This is one of the reasons I bought the book. Did I get an incomplete copy?
glen i can see its a printing error ,,cos @ 9.56 ,it shows at bottom of your books it is a b maj 7,,hope this helps ,,others learning or watching ,cheers
Egads! You are right! It is a printing error on the video and impossible to fix at this point! I will try to make a notation on the video or in the description to point it out to others.
@@glenrose7925 one love , i cant belive i m actually learning ,,thanks glen, waiting for the other vids in your good time .. the principle is great ,thanks ,,
Yes. It certainly does. Guitar, ukulele and piano. Just use chord diagram pages in the back of the Jazzy Ukulele book instead of the guitar diagram pages.I actually modeled the ukulele book after the guitar book so everything applies to both instruments.
I tried to get the book “Gateway to Jazz” entered my details nothing went through I’m based in the UK and got in touch with the man himself via the online page with zero reply. Disappointing
Hi Carl, Sorry for the problem. If you tried to buy the book and the order failed then something went wrong. Please write to me at my email and I will make sure that you get it: glenrose88@yahoo.com/ By the way, you mention writing to me but I never received anythng. I check email everyday. Please try again....Thanks!
