How to LEARN Jazz Language (with 5 examples) 

Sounding great Chase, thanks for the invite and I really hope it helps you guys! ❤️🙌🎸

My goal is to be able to play a halfway descent jazz style guitar. Its on my bucket list. I figure at 72 it will keep my mind and fingers sharp and mobile. You’re never too old to try something new!

Girl here , really appreciate your videos 👋🏻

Really enjoyed this and will look up Tiago's course. Thanks.

Awesome playing, sir! Another great video!

Awesome! Love your videos.

Fantastic content Chase 🎸👍 you know I love anytime that you throw in some Benson! Best to you brother, appreciate your videos very much!

Great lesson, thanks.

Awesome! It must be such fun playing when you are this good 😊

The phrases and embellishments you're showing us strike a balance rare to find in a free video. So sophisticated, so usable. I have not found a guitar language tutorial I liked better. I can't wait to buy the book. Thank you, so much. Let me send you some money. I love it. I do want to transcribe more, but this is good stuff right here.

Wow, so awesome, Chase! I am pretty convinced that learning licks is the short cut to sounding better, not that, that is necessarily easy in any way. Yes, transcribing is better, but so freaking time consuming. I think people are afraid that if they learn these licks, that they will sound exactly like the other people who view this video and I think that is so wrong. Every person will glean different articulation and style and make it their own. Plus, trying to insert a lick on a gig, almost never works out well, LOL! This morning, I viewed a video I did on a restaurant gig 11 years ago. Trust me, fairly cringe worthy. My time was somewhat suspect and a lot of my lines didn't resolve well, because I did not have the vocabulary then that I have now, but I did outline the harmonies pretty well and I feel that my playing has improved a lot since then and especially since I retired from my day job 5 years ago. Having said that, I think my improvement has come in memorizing licks, tunes, and working with my metronome. With those improvements happening, I still sound like me, hopefully somewhat improved. Thanks for your channel. You do a great job!

Nice playing. Tastefully smooth. Grace and Peace

Great stuff.

Wrong, have been watching your videos too and really enjoying them- 👍 Ann

Lots of good sounds, more jazz language is what I need, definitely interested in the course. Will give me the model of your guitar again? I wrote it down someplace and can’t find it.

Wow, thanks for this lesson and all the great content! Is there a possibility to see a preview of the videos of the course? Like snippets of some of the solos. I'm really interest but I'm not super sure it's for me.

This type of book already exists in Jerry Coker's "Patterns for Jazz" (50 years old, and now, free on the internet). He shows dozens of idiomatic or cliche melodic patterns in different variations, excerpted from the recorded solos of the "greats."

Hi there, I really like your content, could you tell me please where to find those Thiago master Lines? Thanks

are you talking about Tiago Legeira? ...man he is an impecable pristine jazz player

On one of your videos you mention jiu jitsu injuries. How do you feel your hands are doing with all the grip fighting etc. It seems to make my hands stiff. I am 51 and have been doing MMA type stuff all my life. My hands just don't work as well after too much jiu jitsu with gui. Just wondering if you have any tips too keep the hands and fingers loose and not become a death grip claw. Thank You

Maybe in the future you could analyze solos by Miles Okazaki, Marc Ducret, or Mary Halvorson playing over one of their original compositions.

What a beautiful Ibanez! What is it?

You have to know the legacy.....

Female guitarist here! (Lesbian tho… hahahaha)

Listening to these jazz musicians is like trying to read alchemical texts from the 17th century , you recognize the words and it seems like English but the meaning is just out of reach.

Lol I suspect that you aren’t doing much for attracting more female viewers if you decide to only start welcoming guys because so far that’s who trended towards watching your videos. x’D But good video as someone dipping their toes into jazz guitar, interesting stuff.

hey i am a rich young willing blonde lady :-)

I hate the way music people talk about music. It's like trying to tech u about "Star Wars" in "Wookie", instead of using English 🤯!!!!
