Grant Green was one of the most innovative jazz
guitarists of the 1960s. His horn-like lines, original tone,
and superb sense of time elevated him to being one of Blue-Note
Records first call session players as well as a respected bandleader.
This book covers many of the techniques Grant used in his playing
and provides many melodic lines in the style of Grant Green for
minor, dominant seventh, short and long ii-V, major, and minor
ii-V chord progressions. Chapters on double-slurs, double-stops,
pentatonic and blues scales as well as chapters on the basics
of the jazz language will help guitarists understand and play
the music of Grant Green. Presented in standard notation, tab
and fretboard diagrams, this book comes with a play-along CD
that will assist guitarists in mastering this material. |
