‘All Of Me’ How To Build A Solo 🎸🔥
In this video lesson you’ll learn how to build a gypsy jazz solo on ‘All Of Me’.
I take you on a walk through the chord changes and look at cool phrases, licks and lines we can use to form the basis of an improvised solo.
IMPORTANT: Practice soloing over tunes. Don’t get lost and detached from the actual music when you practice.
Ultimately we should practice what will happen in a gig or jam session. :-)
Also zoom in and focus on particular chord changes that you want to build confidence in improvising over.
In this lesson we look at the first four chords of ‘All Of Me’
C E7 A7 Dm
Have fun and stay inspired!

You have a good way of teaching, by breaking it down and being patient for those who haven't experienced playing over these type changes.

[@dingoswamphead]

Beautiful solos at the start and finish, and you have shown us what to do to build our own. Thanks for offering these chord/lick springboards, so we don't learn by rote, but are helped to understand our options. Up to us to practise and turn our own ideas into reality. Maybe one consequence of the pandemic will be even better music!

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

Hi Robin! Could you do a whole chorus (or 2) of the standard, please? That'd be great! Thanks a lot and congratulations for your awesome videos. Keep them coming and stay safe!! Greetings from Southern Spain.

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

good idea Mario all the best to you! Robin

[@nacienlos70]

Amazing, that intro. Manouche but yet modern. Avoiding those mechanic triplets

[@Matthew-pf9mj]

Chris Tilley SG perfect love it... cheers! Robin

[@chrisrtill]

@@GypsyJazzSecrets Was too late so living in a flat needs to be quiet ;) Any plan for All of me to pop into the Tunes Vault do you think?

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

Chris Tilley are you in the Club Chris?

[@johnrothfield6126]

A theory comment... The diminished chords are an example of the diminished(hexatonic, whole tone half tone) scale. FWIW.

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

Thanks for that John!

[@Oheh84]

Hi Robin what a fantastic lesson thank you so much! Do you do Skype lessons? Lots of love from Scotland.

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

Oheh84 hey there thanks for the kind words, glad the lesson helps! I don’t do Skype lessons but coach many students privately in my club.. plus there’s a ton of resources, live lessons etc.. here’s the link for that: www.gypsyjazztransfusionclub.com/ stay inspired stay safe! Robin

[@Bowwylad]

Great lesson robin. Thanks again! Can I ask I’m looking to amplify my cigano guitar so I can use with a loop pedal . Can you recommend any pick up mic for this that won’t break bank? Thanks Richy.

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

hi Richey - thanks mate glad it helps. There are many to choose from and it depends on what you need it for....is it just for loop pedal (at home?) There are Bridge Piezzo style pickups, Stick on more acoustic sounding pickups, electric pickups (like I'm using) I recommend Krivo Pickups best of all. There's one called the Djangobucker or another called the Micro Manouche. cheers! Robin

[@Bowwylad]

Gypsy Jazz Secrets awesome thanks 🙏 I’ll look into your info boss

[@hycus4292]

Robin, great lesson as always, but could you add some hints about the used voicings? In particular, I can not identify the Dm voicing @13:41, when you say "...we going to Dm...", thx in advance for a short reply

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

Hy Cus the Dm voicing is X2323X with the D at the top. Slide it up 2 frets and it can work as A9 🎸❤️Robin

[@topaztschinnery1418]

@@GypsyJazzSecrets Hi Robin - that voicing is a classic "inside" chord - keep 'em coming!!

[@GypsyJazzSecrets]

Topaz Tschinnery will do! Robin
