=====================================================
What's up everybody? Shawn Jones. I'm doing two-minute jazz and a lot of people have asked me about the lick that I play on "Cherokee" quite often. It's a lick that I kind of stole from Charlie
Parker a little bit. He does this thing you know, it's kind of like this uh harmonic thing that he does with arpeggios and this is how it
goes.
(plays lick)
You know, kind of like that, all right? Just to analyze with a little bit um, I take the first chord there's a D flat minor 9. Start on the 9. Okay and then it goes to the major, you know, of the B major next chord. Then it goes to... so you kind of plan on those upper extensions you know and you're just working that through the bridge of Cherokee. All right. It's a fun thing to play, okay.
So you just kind of working that 9, the 9th of the chord through that. Alright just a quick tip you know, if you want to check it out. All right. Thanks.
