Jazz Motifs from Common Tones

[@omerrossman4189]

You know what Richie? You're the fucking man! Everytime I click on your videos I learn something new and you've completely changed my way of thinking whenever I'm soloing and playing jazz guitar. For the love of God, keep doing what you're doing and keep inspiring more people to take their skills to the next level.

Yes the common tone technique is a great contrast to long scale like lines

Thank you for taking the time to put these great lessons together. You’ve changed my approach to learning jazz guitar. Where can I find the PDF for this lesson? Thanks

[@RichieZellon]

You're welcome! There is a link in the info section below the video.

This is a cool concept, really a take on pedal tones. I wonder if it was introduced by Tristano or some other jazz composer. I shall listen out for it in the solos of all those legends you mentioned.

From jump street I love your tone :01- :13 You have good content for us aspiring jazz guitarists 2) I like your Joe Zwanul hat ( I want to get a replica like his and wear it in church when I play on the worship team because it reminds me / pushes me to be a better guitarist. But people might get the wrong idea and think I was a Muslim. (They all play out chord changes like “ Country Roads” ) 🤮. And I know for a fact have never heard of Joe Zwanul. Sing on brother, play on drummer
