If you love old standards like Autumn Leaves and Moonglow but always thought only advanced guitarists could play jazz you'll love Fred's easy-to-play jazz chord solos. In this lesson you'll learn six timeless tunes from start to finish: how to play backup while you sing them and how to play a beautiful chord melody solo/instrumental for each song.The tunes are arranged for beginners with very few difficult chords. Fred plays and sings each song then goes over the tricky spots in each tune before playing it slower on a split screen with close-ups of both hands. Best of all you can read all six arrangements (tablature music and chord grids) in thebooklet that comes with this lesson as a PDF file on the DVD. Chord soloing (playing the melody and chords at the same time) is a very complete and satisfying guitar style. This lesson will get you started and Fred's relaxed teaching style makes it easy.Songs include: Autumn Leaves Moonglow Gee Baby Ain't I good To You Til There Was You Young At Heart and In the Wee Small Hours of the Morning.A detailed tab/music instructional booklet is included as a PDF file on the DVD.
