Celebrating the art and craft of jazz guitar

1. Meeting Summary
Hi Jazz Guitar Fans,
For some reason, or strange fluke, everyone decide to stay at home en mass.
Consequently, the sum total of attendees at the meeting numbered a staggering
seven! Will the May meeting go down in society history as the poorest attended?
Please let us try to avoid a repeat of this. Remember the old American adage what
you dont use you lose!
It must be said, however,, that those who were there soldiered on and playing,
to an audience of four or five, was certainly good practice for playing jazz gigs!!
As usual, stalwart Tom Prior started the evening off with Stars Fell on
Alabama. He told us that this corny tune, like Polka Dots and Moonbeams, had awful
lyrics. He did not tell us, however, that it had also been a vehicle for jazz
masterpieces from the likes of John Coltrane, Cannonball Adderly and Stan Getz.
Toms trademark fills, with chromatic slides, tremolos and the like, were all to the fore!
He was then joined by Ian Wroe for the quirky blues, Blue Monk. There seemed to
be a little uncertainty about who was playing the head, Ian on the first and Tom on the
last.
Robin Thomas was up next or Makin Whoopee in his usual Kessel inspired
style of single-line, interspersed with block chords. This also featured a nice ending
of chromatic substitutes for a I, VI, II, V turnaround. Out of Nowhere followed in a
similar style. Well played, with a few rhythmic anomalies; his sense of internalised
time (in his mind) was sometimes at odds with the more rubato style of his playing.
It was good to see Bulldogs Hayden Minette, replete with a beautiful blonde
Heritage Golden Eagle. Hayden rarely has time to support us. Coincidentally,
another newcomer, bassist Paul Chamberlain, also made an appearance which was
great as we would have been down to five regulars. It is a shame, however, that
these newcomers chose to come on our worst attended night ever. Hayden and
Adrian Ingram played Autumn Leaves and Satin Doll leading us nicely into a break
and raffle.
Chloe, who some of you may remember from a previous session, appeared
after the break, thankfully swelling the numbers, and, after asking Ian if he could help
with her interpretation, sang Bewitched, Bothered and Bewildered to Ians 7 string
accompaniment.
Next up was Adam, who was joined by Adrian and Ian for renditions of Misty
and Watermelon Man

2. Members News
Call for Membership Participation
We have had a few successful, I believe, examinations/investigations of
members favourite tunes. If you feel you could do a similar job please let me know.
Send an email to huddjazzguitsoc@gmail.com or chat to any of the committee at the
next meeting.
Remember the HJGS exists for the benefit(s) of its members, so we need to
hear from YOU: good, bad, indifferent, news, views, gossip, ideas, viewpoints, gigs,
sales wants, swaps etc, etc!
Please keep us informed of any jazz guitar related gigs, events, sales or other
item of interest, so that we can pass information on to other members. HJGS needs
to develop its wider network as an important forum for jazz guitar related information
and information exchange, so that we may all benefit from the collective wisdom and
uncoordinated information that undoubtedly exists amongst fans and connoisseurs.

Tuesday 3rd June

Pat McCarthy and Pat Sprakes.
Huddersfield Jazz Guitar Society is pleased to present a concert by guitarists Pat
McCarthy and Pat Sprakes. Two amazing players who have performed with some of
the countries jazz elite.

Pat Sprakes has been a professional jazz guitarist for 20
years. He has worked with Tony Kofi (he and Tony cut their
jazz teeth together in Nottingham in the early 90s), Darius
Brubeck (who chose him to work with his quartet following a
chance meeting), Jim Mullen (who exclaimed "I wouldn't have
agreed to a duo with him if I'd know he'd blow me away!"),
Phil Robson, Alan Barnes, Pat McCarthy, the list goes on.

Pat cites his main influences as Wes Montgomery, George
Benson, Joe Pass, Bireli Lagrene, Larry Carlton, Lee
Ritenour and Grant
Green.
Pat's love of
harmony allows him to create lush chords and
thoughtfully crafted solos, with the emphasis on
dynamic, tone and telling a story.

Pat McCarthy is widely regarded as one of the
country's leading jazz guitar players and has been a
popular choice as guest or sideman with many
bands, including The John Warren Project (featuring
Kenny Wheeler and Andy Sheppard), Pete King,
The Jamil Sheriff Octet, Alan Barnes, Jamie Cullum,
Jim Mullen, Art Van Damme, Dave Newton, Dave
Green, Tina May and Nikki Iles to name but a few.

Early inspiration came from listening to the recordings of Wes Montgomery, Barney Kessel
and Django Reinhardt and he remains a champion of the pure, classic jazz guitar sound. He
is a composer and arranger, with commissioned works and music for film and television to
his credit. Pat is also active in jazz education.

The evening will also feature opportunities for members to perform and the concert will be
open to the general public so spread the word.

3. Swap an Idea
This column appears to be popular so we will keep it for the time being. But,
and this is an important but we do NEED YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS for this to be
successful. Contributions please to huddjazzguitsoc@gmail.com.
This month we have contributions from Adan and Darren.
My Conti Experience Part 2

Roberts Contis The Chord Melody Assembly Line is like nothing I have seen before.
Although there are many books on composing your own chord melodies (many of which I own)
this one gets you started in using what you learn from the beginning.
The assembly line is the first of two books. The assembly line gets you playing chord melodies
using the stock chords and melody notes of a tune. While the companion book The Formula
follows on by taking you deeper into the subject, into the world of re-harmonisation.
These ideas and tools in the Formula are based on revelations Robert Conti had while listening
to his heroes Art Tatum and Oscar Peterson. He began to see patterns; or formulas if you will.
Many of these ideas come from cycle of fifth movements and tri-tone substitutions, amongst
other discoveries.
The chord melody assembly line
After a short period of time with this book I was able to see notes on a music stave, read the
chords from the real book sheet and quickly put together a very simple chord melody. This book
is based on a very simple methodology to get you started.
How the book works is by learning in organised chord families. For instance if the stock chord is
a C major and the melody note is an E you will play a chord, a C chord with an E melody note on
top for instance C major 7.Below is a sample from the book showing different C majors, with
different melody notes on top.

6

Notes above are notated at true pitch, an octave lower than is customary for guitar.
There are different families of chords (major, minor, dominant, diminished) each with chord grips
that each put a different melody note on top. It is quite easy to get going and in fact before I
finished the book I posted a chord melody of On the street where you live from My fair lady
which is linked below.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8Miv0tTkPO4 On the street where you live

There is an accompanying four hour DVD to guide you through the segments.
Conti likes these long DVDs and they're actually my favourite part as well. Having auditory
explanations on DVD is particularly useful as these books often involve theory. However as
always with Conti, the emphasis is on playing or "getting it under your hands" as he likes to say.

If you simply want to play some of Roberts arrangement he also has eight books of
arrangements. It is helpful to have tried these before approaching the method books as they are
the Nuts and Bolts of how he reached these arrangements.
His arrangements are laid out in the same way as the assembly line example. Usually there are
options so you can choose the chords you like the sound of or find easiest.
Although Robert Conti teaches you to play his solos or arrangements on the DVDs he tells you
many times that nothing is set in stone and that jazz is an improvisational art form that keeps
evolving as you learn. For me I know this is a starting point, a beginning of a new direction in my
musical journey. The key thing to learning is figure new ways to reinvent and use an idea in your
own way. Eventually you do this on the spot and this is the essence of improvisation.
Conti has a good way of keeping things simple and hed boil this down to one word
Experiment

The Coltrane Changes (Part three.)

I particularly enjoyed reading Adrians take on the Coltrane changes last week and I urge everyone
7
to study and use this particular idea as a turnaround. In response this month Im offering up yet
another use/approach for this concept.

If you read my initial article in the March newsletter I demonstrated how it is possible to approach a
ii V I progression by way of a series of substitutions to create a whole new harmonic pathway to
arrive at chord I.

If this seems unfamiliar then have a look at the March newsletter which describes how to reach this
point in detail. There are many references on line which outline this concept and are worth reading
and if I may humbly recommend my own website www.guitarbytes.co.uk youll find video lessons
demonstrating how this can sound.

Melodically it is possible to outline the Coltrane changes by way of arpeggios, chord tones and
appropriate scale choices and to superimpose this over a regular ii V I. Players such as David
Liebman use the idea to great effect.

Satin Doll is a tune familiar to most.

The harmonic sequence is based on a number of ii V chords through a series of tonal centres;
Dm7 and G7 are in C major. Em7 and A7 are in D. The following part of the sequence is D7, Db7 and
Cma7. This is essentially a ii V I progression, Dm7, G7 and Cma7 with a tritone substitution on the
G7 giving Db7 and a chord quality substitution on Dm7 giving D7. Here it is possible to use an
effective lick based around the Coltrane changes.


This lick can be used over any ii V I progression and gives quite an outside sound but can be very
effective. As with all licks learn in all keys and practice using it in as many progressions as possible.

Here is the lick used in solo that fits over Satin Doll.!

9. Sales
Please let me know as soon as items are sold to remove them from the list.
An important message to all contributors to the sales column.
Modern digital cameras take highly detailed pictures. This detail comes at a cost,
namely huge file size. If this newsletter becomes too big (approximately 6-7 Mb),
some email services, particularly academic institutions and businesses, will not
deliver it.
If you want to include a picture of the sale item, or indeed item in our swap a lick
column, then the pictures need to be reduced in file size, preferably no more than
100KB per picture.
Hints. Try searching for optimising images for the web for help on this.
Crop the image view to show just the item.
I, unfortunately, dont have the time to spend optimising images for the newsletter. If
they are too big they risk getting left out.
Ian
Many guitars have been sold through our monthly sales listings. If an
item is sold, as a direct consequence of an ad being seen in the
newsletter, we, the committee, would be pleased to receive a small
contribution to HJ GS funds.

lightweight, easy to play and with the sound of a full-bodied archtop in a smaller package.
He got it right, which is why Howard Alden, Jimmy Bruno and Frank Vignola all play them,

I used this model for all three of my Stephan Grossman teaching vids, the Mel Bay DVD and

several of my cd recordings and tuition cds. You dont see these delightful little jazz guitars

CSL Benson. As far as we can tell a prototype made for CSL (Former Ibanez Distributors) and was
built in the same factory to the same quality as the early Ibanez George Benson. Only difference is
here are two full size humbuckers making the guitar less susceptible to feedback and giving more
options in terms of swapping pickups. OHSC and fitted with Bulldog Cool PAFS. 750

Hello HJGS, here are some photos of the gear I am thinking of selling.

The Gibson L-7 is very nice and was owned by USA bluesman Duke Robillard, looking for 2250.

The Abbott Victor Burlington is a fab piece of British guitar history. Ebony neck plays better than almost
anything. Made in 1940s, may have been started before WWII and finished off after, according to
Frank Cambridge. So rare that I cant find another one to compare for valuation, but Id like 1500 for
it.

















The Gibson BR 9 amp is late 1940s, last time I played through it I was not awestruck so it maybe needs
a bit of a look at, it used to sound Golden - so maybe needs a valve or a bit of know how ? 300 as it is.
For all amp (valve and solid state)
and effect pedal repairs.
22













Also for the collector a J.G.Abbott senior 1928ish, round sound hole archtop, quite like the Gibson L-3 or
L-4 of the late 20s, light as a feather, very nice plectrum guitar, again too rare to find a value but Id
like to think 900 would be fair.


Anyone interested can call me on
07711050846.
Thanks, Andrew.
