PDF Available: www.timcollinsm... 10 Blues riffs using the C blues scale - then a little bit of improvising towards the end, based off the first several riffs.
Jazz Band Director: Eli take the first solo on this blues chart Eli: [Plays Solo] Director: Needs more licks Rehearsal: [Ends] TH-cam Recommended: Gotchu G
It's good. Did not know what a riff was when my ears lit up to the vibraphone riffs I first heard from the new TV program, Peter Gunn. Those riffs weaved in and out of the flow of the half hour show and popularized the genre.
I just found this recently, and I'm exactly at the point you describe in your response to S1udg3Plays - I was looking for riffs I could learn to develop my understanding and ability to move around in the blues scale in each key, and to borrow and vary them to include in my own comping and soloing. I appreciate so much the video and the pdf - both of which I'm using. I'm only up to the third one, but already my understanding of blues language is much farther along than it was. Subscribed. Thank you.
Hello! Thank you for this great videos! Is supposed that the licks can be played in the 1st four measures of the blues? Can you write the chords that you are playing? I know...i almost deaft Thank you for all your help!
Don’t do shit like this lmao I mean it sounds good and it is a very good solo! But this isn’t a jazz solo. Jazz solos aren’t written out they’re improved don’t use pre-written stuff predominantly in your solo it should mainly be from off the top of your head (I say mainly because some famous solos have used pop goes the weasel among other children’s songs but they were only fun little jokes that were thrown into really good improv solos)
@@TimCollinsVibes my point (while poorly worded) was not to write out a whole solo, not to not take inspiration or use something like a lick (I mean people use “the lick” all the time). It was also supposed to be in response to someone who said “Can I use this in a song” so I was trying to say like don’t just take a part of the video and make that your whole solo but ig I didn’t hit reply on his name or sum
@@mrtheminecraftminer1 I don’t see the issue of writing out jazz solos I think it lowers the entry point for people trying to get into jazz who don’t know how to do improv
I think everything we need to practice before we have the muscular action to act it out, pre written is not the problem unless u have the environment for u to speak and interact the jazz language with ppl everyday, and not everyone has this environment
@@carmenip6924 you dont have to have the environment in order to practice, A jazz solo by definition should not be written out, its a solo, improv. There is a difference between practicing a solo and soloing, practicing a solo by writting it and then reading/playing it is different from soling. if you have a melody in your head that you've practiced before then thats fine, it's what you hear, but if you have a written out solo, while soloing, it's not a proper solo

Ok.. So how does one learn to speak a language without learning any words?
