[@QuistJam]

Happy jamming! As requested, these are now up on Patreon.... INTRO SOLO TAB → bit.ly/2wuKfID F Jazz Blues SCALE MAPS → bit.ly/2or4v9n Bassline TAB/notation bit.ly/2uSAqFM Thanks for the support!

[@kwgm8578]

Great sound! Really swings and good for players of any skill level. Love the sound of the Hammond, and your ES, of course. Thank you!

[@h1pst3r88]

That's Billie's Bounce without the head. Classic jazzy blues! Thanks!!

[@QuistJam]

yup :)

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

Good to know.

[@brandonbarrett7595]

That was the most fun I've had on guitar ever! Thank you

[@QuistJam]

Yay!!! So great to hear 🙌

[@oneworld9071]

dammit..... can't stop exploring this smoker :) this is a little sentimental, my father was a helluva bassist, made his living off this very style and also bebop.....he toured with Teddy Wilson in the early 80's, played with Joe Pass (at our home, jamming), Monty Alexander, Jimmy Witherspoon, and the terrifying Dorothy Donegan, Ethel Ennis. I wish I'd had access to this way before 2003 when the old man passed. Our home was always lit up with Blue Note sides, Modern Jazz Quartet, and much Thelonius and Miles :) I was really lucky but didn't start exploring til now, 58 years later. Quist man you are as encyclopedic as my pappy.... I could call him at 3 AM from 3000 miles away and he'd give me all the chord changes to any song, with embellishments...... awesome while it was here. nice bass part on this- you write it by software, or is it Band in a Box, or....?? NOW how to fit that altered scale stuff in this...... anybody?

[@QuistJam]

thanks so much for sharing that, sounds like he was pretty awesome your dad :)) This was recorded in Logic.

[@andrewburdock2438]

Serious swinging going on ,, great for warming up ,, this one gets me excited,, thanks very much 😊❤

[@Jplent1]

Beautiful playing in the 1st minute.

[@QuistJam]

thanks

[@Philharpo]

Completely agree. Play for as long as you like - there's loads left for us..

[@QuistJam]

Just released the TAB if you fancy diggin in :) bit.ly/2wuKfID

[@MegaGuitman]

i like that he jams at the beginning of his tracks gives one a suggestion as to possibilities thanks quist

[@QuistJam]

:))) HAPPY JAMMING !

[@AgnusMadness]

Very nice, Mr Smooth and hitting the right notes!! I would aspire to that bud. Thx.

[@benRely]

That is such a legendary sound to improv some F , ur a beast

[@guitarman6742]

Brilliant opening. Great inspiration!

[@prophylacticfaith]

I love how videos like this get dislikes. “Yeah he took the time to give me a backing track supplied with modes and chords ... lemme just go ahead and dislike that”

[@shadialharbi]

prophylacticfaith I know RIGHT!!!!!!

[@rillloudmother]

those are just folks who got burned by the changes.

[@raysimmons4698]

This is definitely in my top ten favorite tracks.

[@QuistJam]

Awesome!!!

[@juanaxellopez8258]

nice dude

[@casperdevries1632]

same here

[@oneworld9071]

one of your most inspiring, man. ONE thing I'm wandering aimlessly about is playing THROUGH chords, TO chords, FROM chords, I mean connecting arpeggios and scales together when certain chords last only 2 seconds :) I'm thinking the thinking doesn't have to be as fast as I think it's gotta be..... dig? thanks tons.

[@QuistJam]

yes, makes sense! And thank you! Just released the TAB for this by the way bit.ly/2wuKfID

[@grampzstillkickin7252]

[@QuistJam]

Thanks brother, great to hear :)

[@rafaelvelasco2734]

Maravillosa esta pista

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

Guys at Quist. I am finding some many cool improv pars on this. I notice this uses the F7 bebop Dominant scale at times

[@ronnierhoads]

Soloing in F.. Such a great key! Nicely done. Really enjoyed this.. I'd love to hear it around 230 BPM..Got anything like that?

[@khodakovskiyevgeniy]

Thank you

[@pavelmihailovski8959]

Incredible track

[@QuistJam]

thanks brother, enjoy!!

[@daveolssonmusic]

Billie's Bounce! Great track!

[@QuistJam]

yay!

[@rillloudmother]

this one keeps me on my toes's, i liked'd it.

[@QuistJam]

🙏🙌

[@rillloudmother]

@@QuistJam reminds me of a fast bag's groove.

[@guitarman6742]

Swingin' intro.

[@QuistJam]

🙏🙌

[@Fleechin]

This is something I could imagine the Jazz Band I'm in would play. Great job.

[@QuistJam]

+republiccommando1138 great!! Do it... it's fun :)

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

That is cool. Love the sound of the band. Great coming through a good set of earphones.. I love playing with this track. I use economy of motion. This may help somebody. These are my right hand chords. Usually it's easier when beginning a song to just play one chord on 4 beats..unless chords change. First F7( A C Eb F) then Bb7 (keeping F anchored on pinky),( Ab Bb D F). Next.F7 same as first. Next I play Cmin7 for 2 beats ( I use the Eb6 (G Bb C Eb) ..next two beats go back to F7 in root position for 2 beats (FACEb)..Next chord Bb7 as before for four beats. Now here's some really good news. You only move the Bb on the Bb7 to B..thats now a B dim7. (It has everything you need. ( It's stacked minor 3rds) Next back to F7(4beats as usual) Next D7..from F to D is six ascending in the scale F or a minor 3 descending. .So we are now playing 1 to 6..F7 to D7. Good news you change 2 notes to go from F7 to D7. The D7 I like is A C D F#.. Make the Gmin7 as G Bb D F. .. Next it's quite handy to keep the G note anchored and G Bb C E is the C7. The last chords are are F 7 D7 Gmin7 C7..changing the chords every beat..thats almost necessary to use economy of motion...The F is 1, the D is 6, the G is 2 and 5 is C.. So this is a extremely popular turn arround 6 2 5 1.

[@robertmilbury7216]

Hello Quist: Question - I plan on buys your back track packages for jazz blues. Can I use the backtrack to jam along with and then post the record jam on Facebook or KZbin without copyright issues. Thanks much. Love your tracks. I would mention Quist on my Facebook post too.

[@QuistJam]

Hi - yes fb, insta, youtube are fine! Long as u give clear credit :) have fun!

[@lucasanderson7369]

Cool

[@JakeMcBain]

Awesome track man! Is it okay to use it for a youtube video or soundcloud?

[@QuistJam]

+Jake McBain sure - as long as credit is given (with a link) so people know where it comes from. Have fun \m/

[@JakeMcBain]

+QuistJam thanks! Much respect for your work man

[@fvmuijen]

do you have this track also without the drums and with you on guitar...gotta practice drumming you see.... :-)

[@QuistJam]

+fvmuijen coming up!

[@QuistJam]

here it is kzbin.info/www/bejne/b4acgIesjtZspZo

[@RequiemRedemption]

Hello, I'm a pure blues rock guitar player, and the minor pentatonic scale seems to fit in this but it doesn't sound anything like Jazz! Can anyone suggest me any scales that I might use on this to sound like actual Jazz? Thank you!

[@QuistJam]

+Mouad Siraj Have a look in the description... ENJOY!

[@RequiemRedemption]

+QuistJam Didn't notice it, thanks a lot mate! Keep up the good work!

[@mikedee2201]

Try adding the b5 blue note to make it a blues scale and play D minor pentatonic [blues] against the F

[@michin9774]

[@guennadikisselev6289]

Hi Matt ! May I use your track for my practice? I play valve trombone. I promise to link it to your site, when I finish, but I will send it to you first for a sneak pick, if you do not mind. How it sounds?

[@QuistJam]

long as you give credit it's all good, happy jamming!!

[@remyfammm]

I'm new in jazz , can anyone explain to me the chords and theory in this progression ? I know it's a 12 bar blues but am curious the extra chords in it like the use of Bbdim

[@clayjohnson2618]

It's a passing chord, it could be left out but a lot of players like to throw it in for extra color

[@PIANOSTYLE100]

Took me a few minutes to find it. When I just played 1234 1234 1234 12 34 1234 1234 1234 1234 1234 1234 1 2 3 4.

[@rubenbaca9529]

What kind of scale was he playing?

[@QuistJam]

a combination of all the scales listed in the description. You can get TAB and scale maps here bit.ly/2wuKfID

[@abdielx31]

Any tab?

[@QuistJam]

not yet, but it can be made... THIS F jazz blues featuring Jens Larsen does have TAB kzbin.info/www/bejne/np-li52eh5aBbJo

[@QuistJam]

[@tim.van.emmerloot]

This is medium to me..

[@QuistJam]

happy jamming!

[@reloadedmusicco3439]

can u not play over the beginning please. this is a backing track. we get it. u made it. great. u went to college. we get it. now stop. your solos all sound the same. k. stop wasting our time.

[@fernandomoreno7753]

you know he could have just not uploaded anything you ungrateful douche lol

[@reloadedmusicco3439]

+Fernando Moreno I know you think you have just made a great burn or something but you didn't. here is how you practice. go to school.

[@reloadedmusicco3439]

+Fernando Moreno Fernando Fernando Fernando. please. stop being a hero. Quist jam just jerks around on the guitar and wastes time. if hrs going go make backing tracks. then he should make backing tracks. I don't want to here him jerk off.

[@fernandomoreno7753]

meh I get your point but saying "stop wasting our time" sounded really arrogant like if he owes you a backing track, you could just suggested "could you maybe go straight to the track." or something like that.

[@reloadedmusicco3439]

+Fernando Moreno I get u lol.
