Turnarounds are short four-chord progressions often found at the end of tunes to set up and return to the beginning. They can also be found in other parts of tunes and even as the primary progression such as in 'I Got Rhythm' aswell as many other bebop jazz and blues tunes. Turnarounds can be the thorn in the side of guitar players because they often require playing separate scales for each chord. And at faster tempos switching from one scale toanother while improvising can be very challenging. This lesson is aimed at giving you usable ideas for improvising over turnarounds specifically the two-bar version where each chord receives only two beats. You'll learn 'MasterMelodies' a powerful yet simple tool that quickly arms you with dozens of eighth-note lines that 'sound' each of the four chords in the progrssion. You'll also learn techniques for adding rhythmic variations to melodies. ScalesTurnarounds is a special chapter outlining the best scale choices to use for each chord in the turnaround plus a look at turnarounds in the blues progression. The lesson also features demonstrations of each example by Don Mock including numerous expanded performances. And try out your new ideas with any of the professional play-along tracks.

Bert Jansch was one of the most influential and unique guitarists to emerge from the British folk music scene of the sixties.His influence can be traced in the playing of Neil Young Jimmy Page Johnny Marr andcountless others. Over the course of nearly fifty years he produced a prodigious body of work as a solo guitarist singer and songwriter as a member of the seminal'folk-baroque' band Pentangle as a duo with his equallyrevered friend John Renbourn and in a variety of other ensemble situations.On The Guitar Of Bert Jansch Taught By Rolly Brown we explore a representative selection from the folk traditional and bluessegment of his Guitar arrangements ranging from simple early folk Guitar settings like 'Running From Home' to his most iconic sophisticated and original accompaniments(e.g. Reynardine Black Waterside). These are carefullyarranged little gems and his virtuosity as a guitarist allowed him to have a very specific and beautifully wrought arrangement while still showing an ability to create a number of subtle variations which occurred in hisrecordings over the years.Rolly Brown first heard Bert's playing in the mid-60s and has been a fan ever since. Along with basic arrangements Rolly discusses variations introductions and endings whereappropriate.Titles include Running From Home Blues Run The Game Strollin' Down The Highway In The Bleak Midwinter and more.
