    “Spaces” with John McLaughlin, Billy Cobham, Mirislav Vitus (sp?) and Larry Coryell (leader) was one of the most progressive jazz guitar albums in history. Larry was way out and that’s what we need now. We don’t need Kenny G music played on guitar. Kenny is Kenny and that’s cool but let’s keep the guitar moving forward.

    If Larry ever gave private lessons by the hour,he’d make a small fortune before the student learned his first chord…

    It’s Lenny Breau’s harmonics technique. Trace the chord with your index, hit the string with the thumb, and alternate with a pure note with your ring finger skipping a string. Practice everyday, its hard to get it fluid, and easy to lose!

    1:31 - Tap harmonics - lightly lay index finger above fret exactly 12 frets higher than what is fretted with your left hand and sound string with right thumb.

    I’m pretty sure that would be Lenny Breau (the originator). But, not 100%.

    Right- guys like Bill Frissel, McGlaughlin, Jimmy Bruno, Pat Metheny, John Abercrombie, Vic Juris, Bireli Lagrene, Phillip Catherine, Kenny Burell, Ralph Towner, Jack Wilkins, Joe Diorio, Joe Pass, Scot Henderson, Robben Ford, Al Di Meola, Charlie Byrd etc all seem to think he’s ok. Since the album Duster (1969) he has influenced not just t guitarists who came after but also had a major impact on the music itself. And he is a very humble and friendly guy.

    but his stuff with Philip Catherine (splendid) was rather nice and he did a live concert with steve khan(Kahn???) (two for the road) which was pretty nice , too.

    i met this guy several times and he was such a wanker. I went to school with his son, too; another wanker. He’s kind of a loser of jazz. Serious jazz guitarists don’t pay him much mind

  14. 14 Mike3303 on January 31, 2010

    What he’s doing is playing the E chord then outlining it by touching (not actually pressing down on) the corresponding notes an octave higher and using his thumb to pluck the string to sound the actual harmonic. He also uses his pinky to play some open strings to give a more melodic effect. Jazz guys do this all time. I can’t quite remember the originator of it, though.

    That G is out.

  16. 16 harrymanilow on February 3, 2010

    sounded like he was playing some harmonics

  17. 17 metalmaze718 on February 6, 2010

    wtf did he do at 1:31 sounded pretty nice

  18. 18 joeralph902 on February 9, 2010

    Is he playing a super 4oo

    That’s what happens when something goes before the public. People have different reactions. Some people even dare to have fun and make light of things. But now I am extremely serious and have changed my whole way of thinking thanks to your message. Ah the power of words!

  21. 21 univibe23 on February 14, 2010

    Oh I don’t know…I’m seein’ a lot of Billy Jean King here. Not sure if she was capable of having a love child though.

  22. 22 nothingislogical on February 16, 2010

    He looks like love child of Buzz Osbourne and Harry Potter.
