Grant Green was one of the most innovative Jazz Guitarists of the 1960s. His Horn-like lines, original tone, and superb sense of time elevated him to being one of Blue-Note Records first call session players as well asa respected bandleader.
This book covers many of the techniques Green used in his playing and provides many melodic lines in the style of Grant Green for minor, dominant seventh, short and long ii-V, major,and minor ii-V chord progressions. Chapters on double-slurs, double-stops, pentatonic and blues scales, as well as chapters on the basics of the Jazz language, will help Guitarists understand and play the music of GrantGreen.
Presented in standard notation, tab and fretboard diagrams, this book comes with a play-along audio that will assist Guitarists in mastering this material. Includes access to online audio.
