Thank you all for over 2 million views!! That's really amazing for me, because it's a jazz solo and not a pop song. Best regards to all of you, wherever you are . . .
@@infinitenumeric7235 I always find the tuning and then watch persons right hand to understand rythim and muting, after that everything becomes much more easy to play
The clarity with which he moves up and down the scales is to be admired. As a guitarist of 15 years, this takes an incredible amount of precision, and keeps reminding me to keep practicing.
Time don't matter as much. I've been playing guitar for more than 15 years, and I still can't play many techniques and I struggle to solo over more complicated standards (like for example Giant Steps). Like you said, practice is crucial, and I don't really like to practice. Lead guitar is tough, especially in jazz. In rock and blues you don't need that much knowledge and theory (although practice and skill still applies, just lower level of intellectual effort).
I can never get enough of Autumn Leaves. Your playing - while technically amazing - still conveys the beauty and wistfulness of the tune. Thank you for the beautiful arrangement - it is a thing of joy!
I'm now transcribing this for the 4th time. Every time I'm having difficulty incorporating something particular into my playing, I come back and find it's being used in some fashion in this solo. Such a wealth of information in one place. Great use of the melodic minor! Thank you again Achim!
Jazz is a style of music characterized by the blending of several different time signatures that creates a unique feel. Though complex, jazz is instantaneously recognized for its complexity and its mood/tone. This is a very great improvisation that passes the time quickly due to its fluidity and cleanness. Very impressed with this!
I been playing for 8 years now and this is incredible! Cant even get close to it. The chord changes are way way harder than it looks and the fact that its was played so clean! Trying to start to get into jazz playing because its so smooth. This piece was awesome
I’m most impressed by his phrasing and feel playing this. This man is playing 170 bpm and making eighth notes with a slight swing feel seem like a walk in the park.
ralph I’m a metal head but I like many genres and I can say that jazz guitar probably beats a lot of metal guitar in talent. I’m a big fan of the guitarists from animals as leaders and archspire because I find they seem to have a lot of talent and jazz influences
Wow! This is so good! This style of playing is so difficult to master. So many intricate chord changes and complex jazz chords. You are incredibly talented and have deep knowledge of this instrument
I love to hear jazz played this way. Your version of 'Blue Bossa' is great. It's so good to hear music that actually has a tune, rather than lots of fast playing with notes going all over the place. Well done Achim and thank you.
Henry2962 I'm a blues guitarist that steps into the realm of hard rock occasionally, I'm actually trying to incorporate jazz style fast playing and chord solos into my style to give it a bit more of a unique style.
I don't know what you mean with '' unique'' cause everybody is unique in their playing even if you just keep playing Blues you are unique but if you mean to come up with a completely unique style unfortunately that mix exists already it's fusion check Macalpine,Greg Howe,Frank Gambale,Oz Noy......
I hear some influence from my two favorites, Barney Kessel(the chord melody) and Wes Montgomery( the octave playing). This is the best octave playing I have heard since Wes Montgomery. Achim, your version of Autumn Leaves is the best I have ever heard!
Fantastic playing!!! My favourite tune played by one of my favourite players. Congratulations. And thank you so much by sharing these wonderful crystal clear videos.
I know this is 10y ago about thanks for posting this! New guitar player here and I just finished transcribing the first solo chorus and I think I’ve learned alot already lol. That lick at 1:32 is super cool
I like how people are seeing this as a downer on how bad they are when this should be really inspirational like Jesus Christ this improve makes me wanna practice more often
Vielen Dank an Achim Kohl für die sehr schönen und inspirierenden Arrangements. Habe mir gleich die Noten/Tabs und Tracks dazu runtergeladen. Jazzstandards eben im richtigen Jazzsound zu spielen, mit allem was dazu gehört (coole changes/solos, tension, arpeggios, flowing lines, guitar octaves a la Wes Montgomery/George Benson), all das lernt man hier. Kann ich nur wärmstens weiter empfehlen! Ich bleibe dabei ....
Je suis guitariste Marocain je m'appelle Hicham Deloui j'aime beaucoup votre maniéré de jouer surtout vous ne parlez pas beaucoup et c'est l'instrument qui s'exprime encore merci de ces belles phrases
Lovely playing Achim - you've done it now - I am going to get a Gibson ES 137 Custom - that sound is just what I'm after - I've been dissatisfied with my sound for a long time and this will change things for the better - I am already an advanced player as is evident from my music on You Tube - even so I have learnt much from viewing your videos and I hold you in great respect as a player - what's more - it is very generous of you to post all this stuff up on You Tube for free - you have a big heart, my friend - may you continue to advance and inspire others !
No one wakes up and one day plays that good. What people dont see is the day in and day out effort and instruction. DONT GIVE UP FUTURE JAZZERS
Thank you all for over 2 million views!! That's really amazing for me, because it's a jazz solo and not a pop song. Best regards to all of you, wherever you are . . .
You are amazing. I learn a lot from you. Love your style. I always will come back to watch this video.
1 chord per beat(jazz) > 4 chords a song(pop)
now it's almost 3 and half million. congrats.
Thank you for this version of this classic. You are Amazing!
3.5 million views and counting...
Unbelievably expressive chord solo, so much tension built, and such a sweet release. Beautiful playing.
Thanks, good ears btw
Wowh didn’t expect to see a phil elverum PFP here

I love autumn leaves... Listening all the way in SOUTH AFRICA. I'm so enjoying this guitar solo. thumbs up Achim Kohl.
wtf

Dis I like
Greetings from Cape Town
that chord changes..... im crying..
his left had was just a blur at times lol
The good thing is the right hand pattern is understandable.
@@infinitenumeric7235 I always find the tuning and then watch persons right hand to understand rythim and muting, after that everything becomes much more easy to play
I enjoy his improv, very jazzy! Also, the tone of that guitar/amp setup. Great!
まず聞いてとにかく心地よい。哀愁の漂い枯葉なのにリラックスできて気持ちが楽しくなる。
Best version of this tune I’ve ever heard, I can finally understand and hear the melody and what the songs all about
Thanks! Kind regards
I love how you still reply after all these years. Keep up the great work🥳

That chord solo was probably the most impressive piece of guitar playing I've ever seen

Though complex, jazz is instantaneously recognized for its complexity and its mood/tone. This is a very great improvisation that passes the time quickly due to its fluidity and cleanness. Very impressed with this!
The guitar sound just the way it looks, wonderful
One of the best guitar solos of the track out there. Quite interesting how you play outside but still outline the melody. Kudos
Thanks, best regards from Germany
Outstanding, this is what guitar (and music) is all about. Inspiring to the musician and enjoyable for the listener. Very nice!
I been playing for 8 years now and this is incredible! Cant even get close to it. The chord changes are way way harder than it looks and the fact that its was played so clean! Trying to start to get into jazz playing because its so smooth. This piece was awesome
Maybe adjust it the way you can play nearly that sound is the solution?)
Truly amazing. Nothing sounds better on a guitar than jazz and blues.
Such a beautiful sound, inventive chord passages, spontaneous and flawless.
So beautiful. Always a joy watching a master guitarist!
I may have to "borrow" some of these licks. An absolutely beautiful solo that has inspired me to write some solos over this piece
That’s what it’s all about! Incorporate into your playing and do this with more songs and you’ll start sounding really good
I’m most impressed by his phrasing and feel playing this. This man is playing 170 bpm and making eighth notes with a slight swing feel seem like a walk in the park.
Fantastic, incredible, impeccable, amazing, magical, intellectual, ... more than anything else, beautiful!
😇😎 Thanks!
this makes most metal solos sound like the solo from i wanna be sedated. well done
pagic Menis as a metalhead, I can confirm

TheMoniathansNest agreed
ralph No
That chord change at 3:04 is unreal
Ryan Corcoran it’s like... a solo but with chords!
Maybe you mean 3.00
Im gonna cry i cant do that
That part from 00:00-4:23 was unreal!
Wow! This is so good! This style of playing is so difficult to master. So many intricate chord changes and complex jazz chords. You are incredibly talented and have deep knowledge of this instrument
Sicher und swingend gespielt, mit frisch klingenden Ideen. Perfekt. Ganz grosses Gitarrenspiel.
One of the best jazz players I ' ve ever seen. Excellent. I play pop music but Love your jazz style you play
This type of music just makes me happy
😎
This gibson sound heals my soul. The musician is fine, top.
Mr Kohl, I feel Mr Mottola is smiling down on you from above - he lives on in you - that was far beyond excellent.
I love to hear jazz played this way. Your version of 'Blue Bossa' is great. It's so good to hear music that actually has a tune, rather than lots of fast playing with notes going all over the place. Well done Achim and thank you.
This almost certainly the most impressive and best guitar playing I’ve seen on TH-cam.
Absolutely amazing playing. Fabulous.
Benissimo, MAESTRO! I keep listenig to these amazing improvisation over and over again!
Sure is different compaired to your everyday shredding.
Henry2962 I'm a blues guitarist that steps into the realm of hard rock occasionally, I'm actually trying to incorporate jazz style fast playing and chord solos into my style to give it a bit more of a unique style.
Good luck with that, jazz chords and scales are really difficult imo.Sal Zulli
Henry2962 I noticed that, but once I get the hang of it it won't be hard, especially since you can see how fast he makes those chords
I don't know what you mean with '' unique'' cause everybody is unique in their playing even if you just keep playing Blues you are unique but if you mean to come up with a completely unique style unfortunately that mix exists already it's fusion check Macalpine,Greg Howe,Frank Gambale,Oz Noy......
Good song
i like that when it builds tension and releases it softly.
Great rithm, great sound, so smooth and clean technique. I really like it!!
Só hoje voltei 4 vezes pra escutar esse hino 💕, que maravilha de música!!

Veľmi profesionálne zahráte. Ja milujem takúto hudbu. 👍
Thanks!
I hear some influence from my two favorites, Barney Kessel(the chord melody) and Wes Montgomery( the octave playing). This is the best octave playing I have heard since Wes Montgomery. Achim, your version of Autumn Leaves is the best I have ever heard!

Really enjoyed watching this. Thank you for posting!
I like how people are seeing this as a downer on how bad they are when this should be really inspirational like Jesus Christ this improve makes me wanna practice more often
