Table of Contents
Introduction

In the Style of? What does that mean?

To write this book we immersed ourselves in the music of each of the artists covered and spent hours listening to hundreds of tracks. While these one hundred licks are not transcribed directly from the records, they are as stylistically accurate as we can make them.

Each of the five licks for every artist is designed to encapsulate their approach to soloing in a couple of bars. For example, a Wes Montgomery lick in this book should make you say Ahhh! Thats Wes alright!

Of course, its impossible to encapsulate the style of a player in just five phrases the musicians featured here are all talented, complex individuals with rich musical vocabularies; a whole book could be devoted to each one (maybe one day well do that)!

Rather, the phrases here are intended as a starting point for your exploration of each guitarist and their music. If you work through all the examples in this book and practise the licks so that you absorb them into your playing, youll build a comprehensive jazz vocabulary and be well on your way to developing your own style.

You may have bought this book as a shortcut to jazz guitar soloing. We are confident it will help you, especially with the stylistic aspects of each player. Most jazz vocabulary is arpeggio based, but the way that each guitarist makes phrases personal and unique to them is probably the biggest insight this book can give you.

We all expand our vocabulary by copying phrases from other people its how language works. So the best practice you can do to take your playing further is to transcribe the solos of your favourite artists. Turn off the cell phone, close Facebook and just sit with your guitar, figuring out the licks you love. Cherry pick the lines that jump out at you and master them, note by note. That way youll expand your vocabulary in the style you love and, above all, youll sound like you .

Finally, please download the audio for the book. Reading music off paper is one thing, but you really need to hear each lick to get a feel for how its played. Jazz is all about feel. While the notation will show you the notes, the audio will give you the all-important phrasing and nuance. Instructions for getting the audio for free are on the next page.

Above all, have fun exploring the music of these incredible jazz guitarists. Apply everything musically and focus on learning what you enjoy hearing.

We had a huge amount of fun putting this book together. We hope its equally as enjoyable to learn from and provides a unique insight into the music of the guitarists you love.

Good Luck!

Joseph and Pete

How to Use this Book

Our advice is to pick your favourite guitarist and dive right into their licks. Pay attention to the chords each lick is played over, as they have a profound effect on the feeling of the melody. Once you have the basic grasp of a lick, play it over the accompanying backing track to hear how it sounds and focus on the feel. Play it at 1/4 speed if you need to, until youre comfortable, then gradually bring the lick up to speed with the help of a metronome.

Once youre confident, experiment and play the line in different ways. Phrasing is everything, so begin the lick at different points in the bar. How about sliding, or hammer-ons / pull-offs instead of picking? Aim to make each lick your own.

Use each lick as a basis for your own solos. Learn to develop the lick by changing notes, placement, phrasing, extending, contracting there are hundreds of ways to alter a musical phrase, so trust your ears and have fun; its impossible to make a mistake! Something can be learned from every lick, even if you just take a small part of it and play it at a different speed, or just capture the general vibe. Treat each lick as a starting point rather than a destination. Explore and see where they take you.

Josephs book, Blues Guitar Melodic Phrasing goes into great depth about all these concepts and more. It teaches you how to develop a personal musical language with soul and great phrasing. Youll learn all about placement and displacement and we recommend it as an ideal companion to this book.

Some of the licks in this book, by more speedy players like Pat Metheny and Mike Stern, are technically demanding, as they are played quickly and include many fast note subdivisions. If these licks are too quick for you right now, dont worry because playing them to tempo is a long-term goal.

For further study of jazz and to get more ideas about how to apply these licks, check out the following books from Fundamental Changes.

1. Django Reinhardt

Jean Django Reinhardt was born in Belgium on 23rd January 1910 into a family of Manouche Romani (gypsy) descent. Reinhardt spent the majority of his youth in various Romani camps situated around Paris and began his musical career at an early age, initially playing violin, then later the guitar and banjo. It is believed that his father was also musical, playing piano within the family group.

Reinhardt learned guitar quickly and copied many of the musicians he was exposed to, including his uncle who played both guitar and violin. Such was his talent, by the age of 15 he was able to make a living as a performing musician. His first recordings (playing the banjo-guitar) were made in 1928 accompanying three accordionists and a singer called Maurice Chaumel. Reinhardts reputation as a fluid and inventive guitarist grew rapidly and he soon came to the attention of musicians outside of France, including the British bandleader Jack Hylton who subsequently offered him a job.
