Showroom Sweep: Joel Paterson | Chicago Music Exchange

A weekly mainstay every Monday night at Chicago’s most iconic jazz club The Green Mill Cocktail Loung, Joel Paterson has mastered playing styles in multiple genres tracing all the way back to the era in which the electric guitar was born-from the best in jazz, to western swing, classic country, rockabilly, and more. For the second installment of CME’s Showroom Sweep video series, he joined our very own multi-genre master, Nathaniel Murphy, grabbing whatever gear he could gather in five minutes or less-then, the two sat down together to talk shop and give the guitars and amp a go! Watch to the end to see how you, too, can make up for a Bigsby vibrato when you switch over to a Telecaster!

I've just discovered Joel's playing. Lucky me! He's a constant flow of guitar melodies. Gotta love it!

[@fcariani]

Two of my favorite guitar players. I’d watch them play for hours on end.

[@stepitupandgo67]

Joel is amazing...one of the best !!

[@weden99uk]

This concept was a pretty good time guys!, haven't been this engrossed in a CME event since the old Joel *Baumann* days! (miss that guy) Could listen to Joel *PattieBoy* play for days! Nathaniel too of course!, sending peace and good vibes from a fellow Mancunian!

[@chicagomusicexchange]

That’s awesome! Thanks for watching!!

[@dylantv5621]

So cool to see these guys together! I've followed them both for years and knew they were both in Chicago.

[@zenmaestro04]

Now this is the kinda stuff I could watch all day :)

[@BushidoPhoto]

I was given a free pro-line Gretsch once and a Fender tweed blues Jr. All I did was take professional photos for them at an event non-grata.

[@Freakaboogie]

that was downright wonderful

[@tyleranderson9190]

Joel is great, it’s fun to watch two masters play!

[@portsideguitar1981]

Man, Joel is such a great player. Great video, fun to watch!

[@delivrance3961]

magic!!!

[@matthewjohnston8656]

Joel’s playing is mesmerizing.

[@TravW]

Killer content. Exactly what everyone wants to see from cme. Keep it coming!

[@chicagomusicexchange]

Thank you!! More on the way!

[@danielbrown6961]

This is a great video. Hope to see more like this

[@Trombonology]

A bit of a cliché comment, but Joel could have made that little mystery acoustic sound like a Holy Grail Martin or Gibson. Being well acquainted with his work, I'm not surprised by his picks. He clearly appreciates and utilizes the classic features, but ultimately it's his picking, and not the guitar or amp, that dazzles most. Thanks, as always, for spotlighting one of CME's most distinguished guests.

[@chicagomusicexchange]

Thank you!! Much appreciated!!

[@FabianSalomonsson]

Keep inviting Joel!

[@BushidoPhoto]

I wish I could take 6 weeks of guitar lessons with Joel.

[@supedersen]

Very nice recording !!

[@brunoantony9257]

Joel is such an amazing player! I wish he would teach some online lessons so I could learn some of his songs.

[@benjamingilmore825]

I like the laugh and applause track!

[@penttihanninen9408]

What was the song Joel played with Gibson beginning at 7.23?

[@ryanthomas5507]

Joel rules!

[@charleswinokoor6023]

What exactly is “downstairs” before I agree to anything? That’s pretty funny.

[@atruefaith6498]

Don't know anything about playing, just like seeing really good musicians having fun.

[@atruefaith6498]

Should replace most reality TV. That would improve society!

All experts in their fields: artists, musicians, mathematicians, surgeons, farmers, physicists, plumbers, electricians, etc.

Joe's pizza in Wheeling case closed

[@PatrickBoberg]

This was incredibly fun. Not a big fan of that Tele on rhythm. Sounds chunky and distracting.
