Thanks Scott, appreciated!👍

@@CliffordMartinOnline 😀👍

Thanks Ivon, Yeah, the open strings I find really helpful and they create a really nice sound and I also find are helpful for crossing the string smoothly.👍

Thanks Dwoed!...I have taken this from the scale/fingering from John's video "This is the way I do it" and applied various variations on this. John has used the open string like this in Shakti in various guises, but, here I am just breaking it down into its most simplistic form to show what is possible so that anyone can take it away and develop it into their own style....But, this is not taken from any specific composition but just a variation on John's well known scale/fingering from his video.👍

Thanks mate!!👍👍👍

Thanks Matt, appreciated!👍

Thanks Phil, appreciated!

Thanks LyDia, appreciated!👍

Thanks Ramouba! Yeah, I agree, it's a fantastic song 👍

Thanks Qwarks!👍

Thanks Phil!

Hi, thanks. For the short orchestral example I used "Spitfire Strings from Albion Legacy" sample library. ....Yeah, I agree, the intervallic approach is really useful for the guitar to create fresh sounding material and it really moves away from guitar cliches. 👍

Thanks mate!!!👍👍👍

Thanks mate, appreciated!👍

Thanks Dovith! 👍

Hi I'm not sure if there is a specific video about these 12 Forms, But, At the end of this video I made is an intervallic example over ii V I [similar thing] kzbin.info/www/bejne/i5-cgGuVbdVrhw ....Also, there is an example by Pat himself displaying "Intervallic" playing on one of the "True Fire" videos on youtube, it is the one with the white backing and 3 screens. 👍

Thanks Brett!👍

Hi Patrick, I only did the TABS for Forms I and II here is the link jazzimproviser.com/2024/10/22/exploring-pat-martinos-12-chromatic-forms-for-guitar/ [at the bottom of the page] 👍

Hi, thanks 👍👍👍

Hi, Thanks, Your plectrum guitar playing is really good. Your picking in your videos/channel sounds good. 👍

Thanks Mel, that's really kind, glad the channel is of use👍👍👍

Hi Plec, hope you enjoyed the video, thanks 👍

Ah, thanks mate, that's really kind. Yeah, we had a lot of fun making this video and it was a real eye opener for me as I was amazed at the bands and music she [and her friends ] are listening too. 👍👍👍

Thanks LyDia! Merci 👍👍👍

Thanks Phil, Yeah it records ok, this was just with an iPhone. It's just an old video upload that I had cut so I re uploaded an uncut version.

Ha ha, thanks Humphrey! 👍

Thankyou, that's so kind, appreciated! 👍👍👍

Thanks LyDia, Merci! 👍

Thanks Phil, appreciated!

Thanks Juliana!👍

You're the best Betty. thanks!!❤👍🎸

Thanks Amery, appreciated!👍

Thanks Adler, Yeah, it's an interesting and very useful concept for composition, it's amazing what can be made out of it 👍

Hi Thanks, the principle was to try and make concepts/compositional devices that Boulez uses and make them work at the guitar with the plectrum as opposed to classical fingerstyle. ...This is an old video, but, I think that they were my own ideas/developmental phrases based around Blouez's deductions and compositional procedure from "The musical language of Pierre Boulez" [Cambridge Press] .The aim was to deal with and connect the awkward intervals wether 12 tone or polytonal or even permutations and see what the results would be with the plectrum. It's a fascinating subject as lots of interesting and original material can be composed, and It's a subject that I will hopefully make another more up to date video on in the future.👍

Thanks Alex, appreciated!👍👍👍

Thanks Jawad, very kind words, appreciated!👍

Appreciated Phil!

Thanks Phil!

Great stuff! I never saw the Mahavishnu Orchestra live only Shakti a couple of times, but, that sounds like an amazing gig, you were lucky!👍

Thanks Simon, very kind words!... Yeah, John is still playing amazingly well. I saw a video of Shakti the other day also and they were still really tight and John was still playing like he was 20 years ago, incredible stuff, really inspiring. 👍

Hi Patrick, it's out of print I think, but it is, John McLaughlin Improvisations Mediastarz - transcriptions of the 4 standards from the C.D "Poets and Thieves". You might be able to find a copy secondhand online or Pdf. 👍

Thanks mate!

Thanks Micky!

Thanks André, appreciated!👍👍👍

Thanks Phil!

Thanks mate, Yeah, the McLaughlin lines create some really lovely sounding music👍

@@CliffordMartinOnline agreed, very melodic.
