Learn how to play Don’t Wait Too Long!
Using chord progressions like I – VI – II – V with some interesting extensions and slash chords Madeleine Peyroux launched herself as a contemporary answer to Billie Holiday.
The M8 (bridge) section use a long cycle of 4ths progression with IIIx – VIm7 – IIx – V7sus4 – I, further adding to the 1940s Jazz/Blues vibe.
The solo is using the concept new chord – new scale!
To solo over a jazz blues is one of those barriers that many guitarists struggle with.
It is very likely that this is because most guitar players never get all the shapes of all the arpeggios and scales down.
Soloing over a jazz blues
If you don’t get the basic part down of knowing all your pentatonic scales, arpeggios and modes in each shape, you will never be able to relax enough to play a jazz solo.
When you do have them down, jazz is easy, you play around with melodies like a footballer plays around with his ball.
Be careful though, musical jazz humor in solos can easily go over the audience head.
No matter if you aim to be the next Zappa or just wanna be able to enjoy playing jazz solos, make sure you get all the basics down.
New chord equals new scale should be a fun, not a daunting concept.
