    John is a fantastic guy and a brilliant player. It must be over 20 years since I met him last and he’s still the same. Thanks for sharing buddy.

    He's playing perfectly to demonstrate his points for any guitar player, but his brilliance really shines through throughout. I love when he sang his melodic improv

    Great stuff. I learned a lot here. Thanks John!

    For me personally, this has been a very useful lesson for fusion which has clarified and filled in a lot of blanks as to how to apply jazz music theory to composing and improvising. Thank you for doing this.

    Massively Forgotten & Underrated Beyond Belief. Wonderful guitarist & no wonder Holdsworth thought so highly of John!

    a great inspiration to me since 1967 .Thanks Johnny.

    I started to watch it because I’m a huge fan of @martynbooth work and was interested to hear John’s guitar in isolation. Little did I know what a rare treat this was going to be. Completely absorbing and really informative, what a great communicator and teacher. Thanks.

      Totally agree..I have a 1980s Yamaha MSG Std here that I've owned for 20 years or so. I dropped it off with Martyn in Suffolk in early 2000s for a set up. I can do it myself but couldn't resist the opportunity to get the designer of the guitar to work on it. He is great company, super helpful. I'm recently picking up the MSG more and more, often wondering about upgrading pups to match his current models...but it sounds great as is...with a bit of appropriate EQ. This is a valuable vid, lot of insight there.

    Wow I think this is possibly the best master class I've ever seen. Great example of how to make music and improve with practice ..... Thanks

    I saw John play Django/Grapelli in Peterborough railway station Hotel. I was in the front row about 8 foot from his fingers. Fantastic evening.

    Super underrated player imo. Soft Machines Alive and Well is some of my favorite jazz rock from that period. Him and Bill Connors of Return to Forever always get overshadowed in the realm of jazz rock fusion players. My 2 personal favorites along with Allan Holdsworth, John McLaughlin, and Sonny Sharrock.

    Great film and John is so approachable. I saw him several times at the Good Fellowship in Hull along with Ben Crosland on bass and Dave Tyas on drums. John never stops playing his guitar (and it shows) and even in the interval he'd be playing an unplugged electric guitar. He has such an amazing technique but comes across as just an ordinary fellow with not a hint of arrogance. I wish I could play those fast runs but I never put in the effort required which is a big regret.

    I need to take a page from this guy. If he wants to jam over a Dorian vamp, his entire interaction with the looper takes no more than three seconds. Half my afternoon has usually gone by... Lol!

  • @steveh1273
    @steveh1273 Před 5 lety

    Ok, an amateur question here, why not play the G major scale instead of A Dorian? Why does it have to start with A?

    • @humphreybarclay4983
      @humphreybarclay4983 Před 5 lety

      Steve H - they are the same notes, but he is “thinking” in A. The chords underneath are the determining factor. That way he can more easily play around with chord tones and other intervals for colour, like Dorian’s major 6, the flat 7 and maybe a cheeky maj/min 3rd

    • @joaquin8637
      @joaquin8637 Před 4 lety

      if you use G as the root note while playing in A key, it doesn't sound right

    • @Khayyam-vg9fw
      @Khayyam-vg9fw Před 3 lety

      @@joaquin8637 Not really too much of a problem in a Dorian context, although if you pitch the G very low you might confuse the bass of an A-minor (7) chord, if it's supposed to be in root position.

    • @cur_mudge
      @cur_mudge Před 3 lety

      sure it does! g maj (gbd) over a min gives you the 7th, 9th and 11th-- just a different flavor
