Freddie Green style
jump, jive and Swing Guitar. More than a studied technique, swing gets down to a feeling. It's how you play, how you move your whole body rhythmically in time with the band. In this book, you'll learn how to play with the band, understand what the band members are doing, and how the guitar fits in with them to create the rhythm section. A basic knowledge of chord voicings and some study of harmony and theory are essential; however, regardless of your level of ability, you will enjoy this exploration into the world of jump, jive and Swing Guitar.
The Swing Rhythm Section IOne of the first steps to playing swing guitar is having some knowledge of the construction of the rhythm section. The role of the rhythm guitarist is to work with the other musicians: support the soloist and the singer and complement the drummer, pianist, and bass player. Listen how each individual band member plays his part in a typical Iz-bar blues in this CDtrack example. The basis of the whole rhythm section lies in the kick drum, which plays on every beat. The pattern played on the cymbal typifies the swing style, and in big band arrangements, the snare drum can accent various parts of the rhythm or can emphasize the steady swing feel to drive the band. In jump blues, the snare pattern is a hard-hitting backbeat. This is the groove that gave birth to rock 'n' roll. The role of the bass is to outline the notes of each chord in the progression with a note on every beat. This is called a walking line. The piano typically plays a walking line in the left hand, as the bass does, and plays upbeats in the right hand synchronizing with the drummer and the bass player to emphasize the swing feel. Horn sections supply the color and variety in swing or jump blues arrangements. There are endless variations on patterns like the simple punchy riff demonstrated here. I Nowthat you have heard each instrument individually, listen to them all together as a band. Listen how each part comes in and complements one another as they build up the groove for the guitarist to step in.
