| New Essential Bebop Licks, Soul Jazz Licks, & Right Hand Techniques You Must Know DVDs from eMedia | ||||||
Top recording artist, educator, composer and monster jazz guitarist, Sheryl Bailey, dug deep and wide into the bebop soundscape to select the lines and approaches that comprise this essential vocabulary of bebop phrases. With 50 Essential Bebop Licks You Must Know, you’ll learn lines inspired by bebop giants such as Charlie Parker, Joe Viola, Joe Pass, John Coltrane, Pat Martino, Sonny Stitt, Cannonball Adderley, Mike Stern, Dizzy Gillespie, Peter Bernstein and so many more. Learning licks from your favorite bebop players is key to understanding the deeper harmonic nuances of Bebop. Soul Jazz grooves are wide-open and great fun to play because the rhythmic and harmonic framework is relatively simple — providing a highly improvisational landscape to work with. Although, in the words of Albert Collins: “Simple music is hard to play,” and that’s why this handpicked collection of licks will serve you well by stoking your vocabulary with ample ideas, motifs and other tricks of the Soul Jazz trade. Instructor, Tom Dempsey, dug deep into the Soul Jazz guitarist roster for inspiration for 50 Soul Jazz Licks Your Must Know. Kenny Burrell, Grant Green, Wes Montgomery, George Benson, Pat Martino, Melvin Sparks, John Scofield, Peter Bernstein, Eric Kasnow, Mark Whitfield, and Norman Brown are all paid tribute. Albert King, Eric Clapton, Stevie Ray Vaughan, B.B. King, and Freddie King are all masters of the slow blues. This collection of 50 Slow Blues Licks You Must Know is split into five groups representing the five most common styles of slow blues tunes and includes signature licks from these masters. Host Anthony Stauffer breaks it down for you note-by-note in this collection on the 50 Slow Blues Licks You Must Know DVD.
