  1. 1/2 Tuesday #DailyTracks : When you think of unique contemporary progressive voices on electric #Guitar for any length of time the list tends to expand rapidly. If uniqueness / functionality and voicing en situ are primary it gets a bit easier- #Holdsworth, #Metheny, #Dimeola, #Morse, #Lifeson, #Petrucci. If your going to be stuck in a band for fifty years with someone the #Comedy factor is important. In that regard #AlexLifeson probably has the edge

  2. @exfalsoquodlibet @jaztrophysicist Même si je ne le connaissais finalement qu'Au delà du ciel du Missouri, avec Pat #Metheny.

  7. Put on Bright Size Life, got on the exercise bike, and started the latest chapter of Dorley #dorley #metheny

  8. Einer der größten Gitarristen wird heute 70: Pat #Metheny. Vor 50 Jahren habe ich ihn zum ersten Mal live erlebt (in der Eremitage in Schwaz). Die Begeisterung hält bis heute an.

  10. Postscript:

    If you do start to feel some excitement about theory as your fingers get used to this stuff, find a graphic of the ‘circle of fifths’ and read it counterclockwise from G while you recall how the runs in the material are sequenced…

    Pretty cool, huh?

  12. What’s fantastic about this approach is you don’t have to learn any theory.

    The theory reveals itself as you play.

    After which you’ll have a thirst for more.

    Because it works.

    It sounds great.

    And you now own your whole guitar, frets 0-12 and beyond.

    Merry Christmas!

  14. Just learn the three patterns from the TAB provided.

    Get the G, C, F and Bb runs down at any comfortable speed.

    Go one at a time, then practice fitting them together, then looping them.

    You’re going to sound amazing in no time.

    Then—and only then—read the item and do the suggested work to build in the remaining eight arpeggiated runs.

    They all use one of the same three patterns.

  16. Now, here’s the payload.

    Below is a link to an intriguing story about how jazz great Pat Metheny practices.

    Again, do not tell yourself you can’t do this because Metheny’s name is attached to it—I’m shit, and if I can do it, so can you.

    And ignore the ‘chops/theory intermediate’ BS.

    It’s beginner.

    You don’t even have to read the text.

  18. So, an arpeggio has fewer notes than the scale from which it is drawn.

    It’s the same as any chord you might already know.

    And it sounds beautiful because it’s harmonized.

    Which is what music is all about, right?

    Think of every arpeggio, simple as it is, like a barbershop quartet.

    Or better.

  20. Before we dive in, let’s defuse ‘arpeggio’ because it sounds like a such a massive theoretical mf’r.

    Here we go, get ready…

    An arpeggio is a chord.

    That’s it.

    Done.

    The only reason it’s got a different name is you play it one note at a time.

    You are now a music expert.

  22. So what’s the trick?

    Arpeggios.

    Three of them, not five.

    Fewer notes to learn.

    So smaller and simpler than the CAGED scales.

    Easy to play.

    And fantastically rewarding.

  24. Everyone wants to be able to play up the fretboard.

    There’s some sweet stuff up there—we know cuz we’ve heard it.

    But how to get there?

    CAGED is a great way to go. To search & learn = to never regret.

    But, you can open up the fretboard and sound incredibly musical even before working on the five basic patterns of CAGED.

  26. The world is crap, so here’s a gift for all the amateur guitarists out there, struggling, like me, to get to grips with the instrument.

    Might as well practice and play while the house burns down, right?

    First, the most important bit:

    This is easy stuff, perfect for beginners, so don’t let Metheny’s name put you off—if I can do this, you can do this.

  28. The world is grim.

    I thought I’d post a about a hobby of mine for change: amateur music done rather poorly, but from which I draw much satisfaction all the same.

    Because timing has long been my nemesis (the ADHD brain so often can’t help itself leaping ahead of the beat to the next phrase), I decided to take up bass a while back to improve my guitar playing.

  30. Esbjörn Svensson Trio with Pat #Metheny and Schleswig-Holstein Chamber Orchestra – #Jazz Baltica, July 2003 (Live Recording). The first European jazz group to ever make the cover of Downbeat, and deservedly so.
