I have the biggest regret starting learning jazz just now at age of 26.

[@AndrewJanusson]

Not entirely true, he played the four string tenor guitar (top four strings of a regular guitar) starting at age 12.

[@isanewday]

Great job

[@fivefingerfullprice3403]

Amazing

[@wolfunplugged]

this sounds so good. any tips how to get this into the right speed? thanks👍🏻🎵☮

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey! I'm going to do a longer video about building speed but in short I recommend always using a rhythm accompaniment of some sort, a metronome is best in my opinion but you can also use backing tracks or a drum machine or a loop etc. I recommend starting slow and gradually building up in small increments. Try to stay as relaxed as possible. As soon as you start tensing up or struggling drop the tempo back until you feel comfortable again. I think it's important to avoid practicing bad form or mistakes so as soon as you notice you're making mistakes or you're not playing accurately pull the tempo back. I recommend always warming up before attempting anything technical. You don't need to play exercises or anything like that, but just play stuff that is easy at start of each practice session. I never start my practice with anything complicated. Other than that it just takes lots of time and repetition. Gradually your technique will improve and you'll be able to play at higher tempos. Hope that helps a little 👍

[@wolfunplugged]

@@Remi_Harris yep yep....metronome, staying relaxed, warming up. all noticed. I always try things too hard so I fight against a wall....looking forward to your tutorial, man!

What song did Wes play that lick in?

[@Remi_Harris]

It's from one of his versions of The Way You Look Tonight. Here it is - kzbin.info/www/bejne/mnLQYXiklLqsrq8 - The line is at around 35 seconds in 👍

[@SharpEdgeStandardOfficial]

@@Remi_Harris thanks so much Remi!

[@SteelerY360Nation]

I got most of WM's Albums!! He died too soon!

[@knifelyfe6565]

Yes he did.He worked hard all day and played all night.Wore himself out.

[@OgSoFly1]

awesome vid, fun one to learn! what’s the name of the song this is from, or is it one you made?

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey, this is from one of his recordings of The Way You Look Tonight 🙂👍

[@OgSoFly1]

awesome thanks a lot!!

[@davidturnage3467]

Can't see the pick hand. Is it straight alternate picking?

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey, the picking here is based on a rest stroke technique commonly referred to as "gypsy picking", although I deviate from the normal "gypsy picking" slightly here. I've made a video my picking technique if you wanted to check it out. Here's a link - kzbin.info/www/bejne/r4OqYmZrjNljqJIsi=eNs-6XiEvf9l_A3l 🙂👍

[@knifelyfe6565]

Nice.Wes would work all day and play all night.He went too early.

[@TheArtist-v2j]

What key is it in?

[@Remi_Harris]

This is in Ab 👍

[@TheArtist-v2j]

What song is it called?

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey, this is from one of Wes' solos on The Way You Look Tonight 👍

[@lukedaymusic4585]

Beautifully Sick

[@billybigtime2808]

No thumb no party

[@DimonArent]

What is this guitar? Similar to Cort Yorktown

[@Remi_Harris]

This is an Ibanez AF75 🙂👍

[@DimonArent]

@@Remi_Harris I have a Cort Yorktown BV TO and it's pretty much the same.

[@tjprosper7704]

Please explain the intervals and the theory. It may be a 2-5-1 in Aflat diatonically, but not everyone knows how to phrase that with chromaticism. It would be nice to have the relationships explained.

[@Remi_Harris]

Hey, I will try to make a video some time explaining how I would analyse something like this in more detail. I have also made a video that covers a little bit about how I think about notes in relation to chords/chord sequences though. Here's the video - kzbin.info/www/bejne/jYXTknSemM-fndk - the bit where I talk about this is at around 9mins 👍

[@Euro.Patriot]

If you don't understand chromatics then you aren't ready for Wes.

[@tjprosper7704]

@@Euro.Patriot OK thanks for the help.

[@Trahzy]

@@tjprosper7704 Theory isn't everything man

[@Ptpop]

Now play it with your thumb only.
