Introduction
There are many factors that go into a good jazz solo. Understanding music theory, along with the
ability to execute numerous scales, patterns and arpeggios, is just part of the picture. You must also
develop a sense of melody. Jazz students go about this by spending quite a bit of time studying the
improvised solos of others-specifically, "lifting" nice melodic ideas for use in their own solos, or at
least to influence their own playing in some way. These short melodic ideas become their "licks." This is perfectly acceptable.
In the long run, everything you have studied and listened to blends together to become your "sound:'
Problems arise when a player uses licks as the only tool for creating solos. Stringing an assortment of licks together is not improvising. Improvising is expressing the moment with spontaneously created ideas (as much as possible). Most of these ideas are based on things you have already learned, studied and heard.
Ideally,when improvising, we are combining these things in new and exciting ways. So, it makes sense to expose yourself to a lot of nice melodies. Learning a variety of tunes will help and so will learning licks-the ones you transcribe from recordings and the ones you get from books like this one.
This book has two main sections. The first part deals with licks that will work over specific chords.
Most types of chords are represented. For each type of chord, you will be shown the chord formula (as derived from a scale) and four sample voicings. In this section, there are four one-measure licks and six two-measure licks that will work well over the chord. When you find a melodic idea you like, memorize
it and learn to play it in all keys. Then practice inserting the idea into your own solos. Always look
for ways to vary the lick and make it your own.
The second section deals with licks that work over entire chord progressions. Many of the most common progressions are shown with longer melodic ideas. You will find two- and four-measure licks. Once again, when you find one you like, memorize it, transpose it and then start using it (or pieces of it, anyway).
At the end there is a short Appendix. In this section, you'll find ideas to help you get more mileage out of the licks you have learned. There is also a list of scales from which most of the licks in this book were mined. Eventually, you should know these scales in a few different fingerings.
The idea is to develop a strong musical vocabulary. Think of a scale as an "alphabet." Licks are some of the "words" you can create using that alphabet. Learning licks can help you to understand the scales you are studying by showing you some of the musical sentence possibilities.
I hope the examples in this book will open a few melodic doors for you!

NOTE:
All of the eighth notes in this book are swing Bths (played unevenly, long-short). However, it's always a good idea to try playing musical ideas straight, too. Experiment. On the CD that is available for this book, they are played as swing 8ths.

INTRODUCTION

This publication represents a new format in jazz education which allows the learning improvisor and professional to access the benefits of studying classic guitar solos. Most transcription books require that the recordings (if available) be searched out, purchased, and only listened to since most players in the developmental stages of their playing would not have the technique to play the solos up to tempo. The solos in this book are:

1. Played in tune; many old recordings have been sped up to improve fidelity, raising the pitch as much as a whole step.

2. Recorded at an easy-to-play slow practice tempo.

3. Also recorded at a fast tempo slightly slower than the original, making performance attainable sooner.

4. Recorded on modern equipment with fidelity surpassing the original recordings with a modern rhythm section. Bass and drums are monophonic on both channels. Piano is on the right only. Guitar is on the left only.With your "balance control" you can choose what you want to hear. The solos are arranged in progressive order of technical difficulty.We chose performances that are most representative of each master's contribution to the development of jazz guitar.

Barney Kessel: This solo demonstrates his use of hard-driving melodic development and some of the first string bending on record by a jazz artist.

Wes Montgomery: The tone of the jazz guitar was forever changed by this man's thumb while adding to the post-bop vocabulary.

Howard Roberts: This early solo displays his formidable jazz talent which became unavailable to the public as Howard persued his pop hits, studio work and teaching careers in the late sixties.

Hank Garland: This Country-Western studio player shocked the jazz world in the early sixties with
his incredible jazz technique and swinging melodies.

George Barnes: With the use of almost every technique known to man, George uses bending, slides,
and hammer-ons to create a high level of expression seldom heard on the guitar.

Pat Martino: This solo is from the seventies after Pat had left his Wes Montgomery-influenced early
playing and developed his present polytonal-chromaticism, which is much different than the traditional jazz guitar approach.

The final form you see here is the result of an entire year of work; researching and choosing great solos, transcribing and proofreading for accuracy, countless hours of practicing and recording. Our motive is to increase the quality of jazz guitar playing and to preserve music which is or may become "out of print." Jeff Schroedl at Hal Leonard was a big help in developing and improving the book.

Up until starting this project I had avoided playing other's solos thinking that my own unique style of playing would be compromised. After spending a year with these masters, I've noticed that I have retained my original conception of guitar music, but have acquired a technical depth and more tools to play my music my way. So I now recommend this study to any jazz guitarist at any level.
Special thanks to the fine rhythm section who did their homework: Jim Sodke-keys, Del Bennett-drums, Tom McGirr-bass, and also Bill Littlefield-recording engineer.

INTRODUCTION
Grant Green personifies the appellation "soul jazz." He is one of the most colorful
and exciting guitarists to have emerged from the genre, and his work remains the yardstick
by which subsequent practitioners are measured to the present day. In the early and
mid 1960s, Grant Green was a leading exponent of the burgeoning hard bop movement
and a studio stalwart of countless recording sessions that chronicled the rise of the art
form. In these productive years Green lent his singular blue-tinged touch and talents to
groups led by luminaries like Jimmy Smith, Herbie Hancock, Lee Morgan, Larry Young,
Art Blakey, Lou Donaldson, Jack McDuff, Stanley Turrentine, Hank Mobley, Baby Face
Willette, Johnny Hodges, Ike Quebec, and many others. Green was one of the most prolific
recording artists in the prestigious Blue Note stable. He recorded an unheard-of seventeen
albums in 1961 alone, his first year with the company. Between 1961 and 1965,
his classic jazz years, Green made more records than any other artist at Blue Note.
During this time, in addition to his many sideman sessions, he established a formidable
legacy with a substantial catalog of his own albums as leader.
By decade's end, Green had expanded his artistic vision to include the new
rhythm and blues hybrid dubbed "funky jazz." As a result, in the late 1960s and 1970s he
enjoyed a second prominent and influential career as performer and innovator and was
hailed as the quintessential "groove master" of jazz. Green's contributions in the medium
affected countless players on both sides of the jazz-rock divide. You can put George
Benson, Pat Martino, Henry Johnson, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Carlos Santana, Mark
Whitfield, Eric Gale, John Scofield, Joshua Breakstone, Andy Summers, Melvin Sparks,
Dave Stryker, Kevin Eubanks, and Peter Bernstein on the top of the list.
This is the first Signature Licks book/CD to explore the music, style, and playing
techniques of Grant Green in depth. The note-for-note transcriptions will provide you with
countless hours of revelation, and the matching audio will invite you to step into his musical
world to put the theory into practice-the way Green himself did in his formative years.
The selections reflect the diversity of Green's approach and are drawn from his various
musical epochs. You will find material from the hard bop and soul jazz genres, straightahead
standards and blues, modal jazz outings, and funky rock-influenced sessions, all
attesting to the many shades of Green that have endured to become a vital piece of the
mosaic we know and love as the American musical experience.

Figure4-010
Green's two-chorus solo in "If I Should Lose You" is one of the finest of his early
years, a superb example of his hard-bop improvisation in a moderate swing tempo.
Throughout, he cultivates a relaxed soulful feeling distinguished by thoughtful melodic
invention and an ever-present rhythmic congruence.
Green plays unmistakable blues-based licks in Bb minor over the song's minormode
areas to begin each A section in measures 1-3, 17-19, 33-35, and 50-51.
Moreover, his cadential lines at the end of each sixteen-measure section, beginning with
the opening break, are harmonically active bop melodies that emphasize the movement
to and arrival in Bb minor. Green also imbues the crucial secondary dominant-seventh
sections of the song with related minor-mode sounds. In measures 13-14 and 45-46, he
applies characteristic Bb minor lines to Eb9, and approaches each phrase with an altered
dominant melody based on F, the V chord of Bb minor, in measures 12 and 44.
Green favors swing-oriented ideas and generally simpler, more diatonic bop lines
during the contrasting but tonally related major-mode portions (in Gb and Dbmajor) of the
tune. Check out measures 4-11,21-27,36-43, and 53-58. These measures contain a
mixture of scalar and arpeggiated patterns shaped into memorable solo phrases. A case
in point is the voice-leading figure in measures 8-10, a well-known and favorite Green
cliche. This trademark phrase implies an Ebm7-Ab7-Dbmaj7 progression with a descending
minor-seventh arpeggio (Db-Bb-Gb-Eb), disguised chromatic motion arranged in a
familiar zigzagging pattern of Eb-Bb-D-Bb-Db-Bb-C, a rising 9th chord arpeggio
(C-Eb-Gb-Bb), stepwise descent (Bb-Ab-Gb), and a resolving target figure (Gb-E-F).
Green pursues and develops a simple motive in measures 37-39 with an
inescapable logic. Note the melodic expansion and rotation in this three-part phrase.
Green was a master of this sort of melodic invention, and was able, on the fly, to harness
the same elements and procedures used by great classical composers to produce similar
thematically coherent results in improvisation.
Green plays signature raked arpeggio patterns in measures 20, 57, 60, and
62. These short, crammed figures are articulated with sweep picking in both ascending
and descending motion. Green applies side-slipping (in this instance "slipping" a half step
higher) in measures 46-47 to momentarily suggest the remote key center of A minor over
Eb7 and Ebm7. The phrase is made more striking with his barrage of crammed triplet
rhythms. Green's prevalent use of eighth-note triplet rhythm patterns in the solo further
energizes important phrases throughout, most notably in measures 27-28, 32, 43-44,
47-48, and 63-64. Another ear-catching highlight is the funky double-stop figure in measures
51-52. Here Green combines an anchoring pedal tone (Db)with a descending chromatic line.
