“…EUREKA!!! Just recently had a EUREKA moment. I LOVE the sounds of the first real electric guitar jazz giant Charlie Christian. He utilized chord shapes in developing solos. Hmmm instead of learning “jazz arpeggios,” why not use the chord shapes that he used and of which I have some books that cover the shapes?! Chord shapes contain arpeggios, I’m thinking, and maybe I can be closer to his sound using them!
Weekend will bring 2 Christmas shows with the band. Saturday will play at a Fire House, and Sunday playing at a Christmas Church function.
