GUITAR IN BOLLYWOOD (1/7)
In this thread I have looked at the past 6-7 decades to classify guitar songs using genres. Please comment if I have missed any obvious songs

ROCKNROLL – Original rock n roll had “brass and piano” sound to a dance beat ,guitar got introduced later evolving to “classic rock”. Hindi rock n roll songs mostly used brass, piano and snare drums; some of the epic songs where guitar are used are presented here .
GUITAR ARPEGGIOS are sequential notes played on different strings of a guitar like a harp . they provide rhythm / melody for the rest of the song although they don’t get enough credit for it ! The first time a bass guitar was used in one of the RDB songs in this medley.

Just realized how cool the key change to the solo is in "Don't Fear the Reaper" - A minor to the chromatic mediant key of C minor using common pitches /thread
#musictheory #blueoystercult #guitar #songwriting
The song is in an Aeolian A minor but we get that G# sounding like a leading note after the fermata Am chord before the solo enters. The G# and C (from the Am) are reinterpreted as the third (Ab) and 5th of an Fm chord in the first solo arpeggio (F Ab C)
which then moves to a G7/F arpeggio (F-G-B) with the bass now staying consistent - these become iv and V[4/2] in the new key. We then get a solo in a functional C minor, where leading notes are raised.

En 2020, ese horror, hemos tenido una buena remesa de ediciones de #jazz de #archivo. Ha habido mucha cosa buena, incluido esto de @DotTimeRecords, con dúos de #piano y piano/batería de #LennieTristano. dottimerecords.com/product/lennie…. ¿Cómo viene #2021? 1/5
De momento, con buenas perspectivas. La misma gente de DotTime prevé sacar un inédito de #Tristano en trío en directo. Se anunciará aquí: dottimerecords.com/product-catego… 2/5
Más: #MaRainey ha vuelto al candelero y habrá reedición seria de sus grabaciones completas, incluyendo inéditos. Del sonido se encarga commodorestudio.com. Dados sus precedentes (King Oliver, Wolverines en Archeophone), se puede apostar a ciegas (¿a sordas?). 3/5

How do we make sense of "Girl From Ipanema"? /thread

#jazz #jazztheory #musictheory #guitar
Let's look at the original Getz/Gilberto version in Db, not the fakebook version in F. Here's a faithful transcription of Gilberto's guitar part: hjgs.co.uk/wp-content/upl… . And this is the melody: drive.google.com/file/d/11gZNXD….
The A sections aren't too crazy: essentially, the progression of Db [6/9] - Eb9 - Ebm9 - D7 (or Ab flat9 when the bass enters) - Db [6/9] reduces to a I - ii - V7 - I progression with a chromatic II7 chord produced by an incomplete neighbouring note between the I and ii chords.

I started playing #guitar in college. Some of my friends back home played, so I thought I'd learn. It's been years since I kept up with it. With no job and an empty house, I had time. Plus, I could crank up my amp. Ava would have hated it. All the more reason to do it.
#vss365
Strumming a few chords or playing a riff through a loud amp usually makes me feel better. It's more of a distraction this time. My amp is a little old. Even a #ragpicker might pass on it. "If you're not going to play it, sell it," Ava nagged. Life always got in the way.

Or I got in the way. Not even ten years ago I kept getting sick all the time. Painful stomach cramps would radiate weakness throughout my body. I learned how to wash it away like healing #rainwater. That's when I really started to figure out who I was and what I could do.
