    "...To find different ways to express the ONE note" 


    I think that's a beautiful and brilliant way to see and approach it.
    

It's easier having a clear aim in mind (or ear) to find a way to get there, instead of tensed focussing on a creative way without having a clear aim in mind. If you know where to end, the way there will become naturally more play- and joyful, both as a player and listener.

Thanks much for sharing Yaakov!

      Choose one of the chord tones for each chord and stick with it. First, just go through the process I show here with the notes I chose, then choose your own and try other songs.

      This was an explanation of the concept using Django Reinhardt's composition, Minor Blues, since it's familiar to so many guitar players. Of course, you can apply it to any song. Play around with it, Old Mate!
