DVD-The Ultimate Gypsy Jazz/Swing Guitar Lesson – Lesson 2: Putting the Fundamentals Into Practice

Paul continues from Lesson 1, putting all the techniques from his previous lesson into practical use. This lesson will hone your skills and give you the tools to hold your own in a swing jam session. Pazzo shows a variety of chord shapes and inversions, navigating around the fingerboard and demonstrating a G minor blues, the cycle of fifths (Sweet Georgia Brown), variations on the 6-2-5 progression, and the ubiquitous “I Got Rhythm” changes. Once you’ve learned the rhythm parts, Paul details how to solo over the progressions by playing single string arpeggios, chromatic runs, scales, licks, harmonics and other hot techniques. Note/tab included as PDF file on the disc. 60 min.
