    My "Fake" jazz guitar playing was in reality when I began copying a whole bunch of Charlie Parker and Charlie Christian lines and many others too. Guys like Harry James and Bunny Berrigan and others. My Dad was a big band guy so there were lots of records from the 40's including the bebop stuff. He preferred the Big Band Swing. I preferred the quintets and quartets that played the more "avant guarde" stuff. Learning those lines on an old Silvertone Archtop from Sears was a genuine challenge for a 7 year old. I hung in there though and now it's closing in on 65 years later and still..... "It's all rock'n'roll to me." Peace

      nice bit of your personal history, my friend, thanks for sharing. let's keep rocking

  • @prkeene
    @prkeene Před 4 lety +17

    Approaching a target note from above and/or below is called Enclosure and is a key technique in Bebop. This is a very usable intro lesson to that concept without getting bogged down in advanced concepts of chord melody. Thanks for your time and the great explanation R.J.!

    • @kingstumble
      @kingstumble Před 2 lety +1

      As mainly a bass player I use this technique all the time to try and sound a bit more jazzy. I have never heard the term Enclosure though.

  • @mikemyles4916
    @mikemyles4916 Před rokem

    I learned that trick using the index finger as the anchor and sliding it back and forth between the target note and the flat of it. The middle finger technique is more efficient, but I find the index finger approach simpler to master. It also has a slightly different sound since you're sliding back and forth between those two notes. Both approaches are useful.

    Great lick and great playing as always! Have you considered fretting the first note with the first finger( fingering 1-2-1-1 slide 1/2 step down-2, thus freeing the first finger to prepare going to the next string...) :-) Sincerely Perry Stenbäck (BTW Nice Fender meet you had with David H)

  • @stuartkinzel8195

    I'm definitely going to try this out. Usually my fake jazz just consists of me repeating the wrong note(s) I just played in an effort to pass them off as intentional.

    When is Gretsch going to come out with an official Billy Bean tribute guitar? Gretsch used to be a household name with jazz. Those Gretsch drum sets are coveted by most jazz drummers I know. And that Gretsch that Billy Bean used to play, the sound he got, whew! I think that was Pat Martino's influence and maybe even George Benson's. Gibsons can be great guitars and sure have a long history, but there were other guitar makers making names during the "jazz" time (or whatever you wanna call it).

    • @RJRonquillo
      @RJRonquillo  Před 4 lety

      The buzz you're hearing is most likely because the audio is a mix of my overhead vocal mic and amp. So you're hearing a bit of guitar acoustically.
