Jazz Blues Rhythmic Variation

Jazz Blues Rhythmic Variation by Guy Fenocchi is a free jazz guitar video lesson on playing lead jazz guitar. We'll take a a simple jazz line, keep the melodic structure, and then variate the rhythm. Using three lines in G, C, D we'll apply this idea of variation in the context of a 12 bar blues. If you continue to practice this concept it will become very natural to use.
