- In this video, Ted continues to teach the concept of single line soloing as it is applied to the song “Besame Mucho”. This is part 2 and the conclusion of this guitar lesson. Video Credits: Cesar Pineda 01/20/97
Here it is April already, no fooling! Ted continues in some serious discussion/demonstration of what makes up a better single line solo over a jazz standard. Ted refers to Wes Montgomery a few more times in this segment. Ted concludes this lesson by saying, “There is so much guitar to know, I mean, nobody had an idea when we first started! We learn a scale, we don’t realize how many beautiful things are hiding in the scale.” Amen, brother!
Here’s a brief summary for part two:
1. Playing with a triplet feel, four note groups.
2. Chord tone stacks (skipping every other note in the scale).
3. Ted mentions ‘sweeps’ [ala Frank Gamble] -“ … like turkeys gobbling in Dorian!”
4. Ted suggests to change the meter from 3/4 to 4/4 to allow for more time to solo.
5. Enter the melodic minor.
6. 7th augmented arpeggios.
7. Combing arpeggios with scale tones.
8. Experiment playing intervals (5th, 6ths, etc.).
To my subscribers: YES, there are more to come!
Ted uses many ideas from his “Single Line Soloing” books. Lesson sheets on soloing and melodic patterns to practice can all be found at tedgreene.com/
How about a new Nobel Prize category just for Ted Greene's off the charts I.Q., his patience, humanity, caring and a teacher supreme.
"There's so much guitar to know. Nobody has an idea when we first start." What truthful, and humbling, words.
“Flamenco cat” - love it.
Norman's book on the guitar business tipped me off about Ted Greene. What an absolutely sublime human being and player.
Thank you Cesar and Nick for giving us more Ted. Besides the vast amounts of knowledge about all music, such a fantastic teacher and likeable guy.
If I had this video abt 30 yrs ago it would’ve saved me a couple of decades of struggling. Love ya Ted
I got lucky 30 yrs ago when I found " Chord Chemistry " in a small music store in France. Bought it on a hunch after paging through it. Changed my life and my playing forever.
"Turkeys gobbling in Dorian"!! I want to play that sound. I love hearing Ted's thought process! Thank you for sharing.
line of

Unforgettable line😎
Ayy video evidence Ted Greene had love for shred guitar
@Nick Stasinos... I cannot thank you enough for sharing the videos of your lessons with Ted Greene. It's so generous of you to allow those of us who never had a chance to study with the Chord Chemist himself to have a closer look into his musical world. I think you sharing these seems to be in alignment with Ted's ideas on sharing musical knowledge. Not everyone can afford private lessons or tuition to study at college or university. Thanks so much 🙏 ✌😉🎼🎶🎸
Completely agreed
This guy was omega level in his knowledge of jazz guitar. I would have never made it. It's such a complex beautiful language, incredible player.
Amazing
Pure gold. Thank you for uploading this.
Just big big smile watching these.
Great lesson, thank you!
This was such an insightful lesson. Much obliged.
I still listen to his album every day in 2022
These are all wonderful. Thank you so much for sharing these experiences and knowledge.
just found you today. lovely to hear you play and teach.
dude. you are great.
here Ted Greene is talking about sweeps! so cool to hear his opinions of more modern sounds he didn't much utilize! love this video.
Wow man thanks for these gems duder
You're welcome!
@@nickstasinos its synchronous with what im doin over here! I wanna say Teds books are amazing and it pays off to just memorize the stuff in them cold turkey. Takes at least a week per page haha
Very Good Job on ( vdc ) Istructional on Armony Guitar Concept. .. Great Sounds and Very Special Talent. .. Nice One ... ☺😊😀/💙💙💙/👍👌👏👋
Nick, thank you so much for posting this series of videos. They are extremely useful when looking at Ted's unique approach, especially through his breaking down the work of another master like Wes. As ever, I suspect that these videos will help countless guitar players open up to some of the possibilities on the instrument. BTW, he seems like such a humble and self-effacing man - Viva Ted Greene!
Somewhere in time (pertaining to guitar people) I came up with a saying... "Ego and talent, someone with little of one usually has a lot of the other"... I often give the example of Ted Greene, one of the most talented and ego-less people I have ever met.
.......................Ted Greene....He's pretty good & so unappreciated.
Love and appreciate these videos so much! They would be even better without ad interruptions. Is there a version without ads, or perhaps a way to place the ads so they aren’t as disruptive to the flow of conversation? Thanks again to all involved in making this available to the public!
You can upgrade CZcams for ad-free. "Premium". It's worth it if you watch a lot.
TG should easily have been awarded a MacArthur Genius grant but no all those went to ‘others’ criminal
and now... for that quick express flight to greenich village :)
turkeys gobbling in dorian.
Instant Classic
I think Paco de Lucia sweeps in the modes/arpeggios of the harmonic minor. just a crude guess.
way of the road bubs
Incredible thing: he plays a short sample of a song - and then the rhythm goes for dozens of seconds on even if he speaks.
Remembering teachers who smoked all the way through my lessons..
Is that it? We don't have next part...
ted was a patient man...
8:25
Not sure who the student v producer/camera/sound are, but I sure hope Ted got paid a huge sum back then for this monster lesson !!..
Mark Harris, according to Barbara, his beloved partner in life, Ted didn't believe in charging too much for his lessons, mainly in the name of sharing knowledge and making the world a better place through music.
Also, he believed sharing his knowledge should be something affordable to the common fellow and never make him stand apart unreachable...
I wish I had had the privilege to have studied with him...
A true humble master!
