As I was encouraged by a lot of nice people after my last post, I wanted to upload the Jazz - Standards I know. There are only three The first one was published here a while a go, here are the other ones:
Autumn Leaves
Beautiful Tune, and the first Jazz standard I learned. I stumbled across a Video of Paul Davids and fell in love with it. Also, this piece is probably the reason, why I started to become interested in Jazz after all. Here are the Tabs - its for free! Itās using a tool called sound sliceā¦ pretty cool, you should definitely check it out!
Fly me to the moon
Is by far the most difficult piece I know. I needed more then half a year to learn it, almost threw my guitar out of the window countless times, screamed in frustration and needed only-god-nows-how-many-takes to record it. But I love the tune, so itās worth it
The tabs are also for free, on a page named guitar-downunder. Click!
Right now I am trying to learn āMistyā as next Jazz-Standardā¦ so letās see how many months I will need for that one. If I donāt give up learning it, ill post it here somewhat around Autumn
That was great Kevin. I really enjoyed them both particularly Fly Me To The Moon. Iām a Frank Sinatra fan. It reminds me a bit of the Tommy Emmanuel and Emil Ernebro version of Fly Me To The Moon which is fabulous. Look forward to hearing more from you.
Congratulations for these recordings Although standards are not my main interest within jazz, this kind of playing is an item on my super-long-term to-do list.
Very nice Kevin, if this is your main interest you might look at Sandra Sherman on Guitar versum on YT, she has always been my go to for anything Jazz!
Hi Kevin,
Not a big jazz fan on this end. But both of these to my ears were quite nice. An enjoyable listen for sure. Timing seemed good, tone was good and the play overall seemed on the money. Good job!
Hi Kevin,
Absolutely ridiculously nice to listen toā¦as far as Iām concerned it has been worth all your hard work, you can/should be proud of thisā¦A super deep bow for thisā¦
Greetings,Rogier
That was some very tasty jazzery Kevin. I loved them both and that were really well played. Keep at the jazz so we can hear more of what you have to offer.
Hmmmmm, youāve not sold me on maybe trying to learn it myself.
@GreenRider Hi -I finally got around to trying to learn this one (Autumn Leaves that is). Iāve got a strat to but I donāt get that amazing jazz sound you seem to have, are you using any effects? Thanks Leon
