Very nice Tristan.
That's cool to be able to play with your father.
Nobody in my family is muscially inclined so I'll never has that experience.

Is that a Brian Moore he's playing???

Hey Tristan,

Very cool. It's good to see you and your Dad have something in common that you can share. You guys have music, my Dad and I have our fishin' trips. Always enjoy the moments you have with family.

Take it easy,
Scott

Now "ain't that a blessing"... to be raised in such a truly musical atmosphere... to be able to play (jam) with other family members....and on top of that... for the musical approach also to be on the "hip" side of things...

This video is actually a great teaching tool... besides the comfortable, relaxed, vibe between a father & Son, where the extreme musicality shared by both of them is all-inspiring... this demonstrates two particular aspects of soloing & comping...

1. If soloing with innately musical phrases, one doesn't have to make all the changes in order to sound good (that, in fact, it isn't always necessary...)

2. That Chord "changes" often work as "passing" chords creating sufficient enough tension and release to keep music moving whether are not the soloist acknowledges them in his playing...

Both examples of this in the guitar world, can often be found in:

1. Blues soloists playing over chromatic passing chords yet sticking to the Blues scale no matter what the changes may be...

2. Gypsy jazz virtuosos where chord changes are often ignored by the soloist... but just occasionaly implied (or caught) here and there. ..

3. Or in the wonderful, usually diatonic melodic lines imposed over chromatics by Santana (as we all end up studying Santana's approach at one time or another, just because it sounds good...) Or by other great rock soloists phrasing pentatonics over tunes with chromatic chords (or bass notes) moving behind them...

Thanks Tristan for sharing this with us.... very cool indeed!
