BE-BOP STYLE SOLO

-

Here’s a be-bop solo in the style of Joe Pass and Jim Hall, but employing techniques used by a range of guitarists. in addition to some level 3 approach, i’ve used ever y level 4 technique discussed in the text. Examples of lydian Dominant (for the chords of C7 and F7) are found in bars 2-3, 6, 11-12, 17-18 and 23-24, and C Half-Whole Diminished is used in bar 16. G Altered is used in its Pentatonic form in Bars 9-10, and its full seven-note form in bars 21-22. Finally, ‘side-stepping’ (semitone transposit­ion) is employed in a minor Pentatonic lick in bars 19-20.
