FLATPICKING ESSENTIALS VOL. 8: IMPROVISATION (PART III) & INTRODUCTION TO SWING AND JAZZ SOLOING by Dan Miller & Tim May
The eighth and final book in the Flatpicking Essentials series teaches you how to begin to play swing and jazz tunes in the context of a flatpick jam, including how to improvise over swing and jazz chord changes! Includes how to study and utilize scales and arpeggios in the context of using them as "road maps" for improvisation, examples of how to build from a simple song melody to a jazz style arrangement, and three variations each of ten standard swing and jazz tunes. Great stuff!
