This is great. Jerry Garcia doesn’t always get a lot of treatment from serious guitar teachers. Bob too for that matter.

Amazing player! It's really difficult explain clearly what Jerry Garcia's playing so like this.... listen music together and learn what Jerry's playing? Bob's rhythm guitar is awesome too! It's simple yet not easy!

It's fun figuring out these tunes. Jerry was playing through the changes and made great use of triads with all sorts of extra coloring for this tune. A true master. I love what Miles said about the Dead, they were jazz musicians playing rock music. Thanks Tomo!!!!!!!

Thank you for this excellent video! This is now my favorite video about teaching a "Jerry-style" solo. You teach the first lesson I have seen that emphasizes the importance of sharing the feeling and being in the spirit of live music. Others have been able to show what to do, but you have amazingly been able to convey to me HOW to do it! Lots of information here, and lots to practice. I had to pause and replay the video several times from around 6:05 - 8:00 so I could write down everything you said. Some incredible insight and wisdom into what live music is all about!

I can't tell you how much I enjoy watching your videos. Your unique talents for teaching/instruction combined with your humility, and humour make for very captivating understanding and learning. A perfect example of all of this in one is toward the end of the video where you are explaining Jerry's style and influences and then vamp off into country and then say distraction at the end, LMAOF. I love the human and personal interaction with your audience trying to bring the teaching experience like one in which a student is with you in your studio, like when you describe your gear. I am definitely going to join guitar wisdom. You said any more requests. Was wondering if you could do Duane Allman. I know he does slide but his melodies are so amazing and they do alot of the major scale.

Lots of great lessons on Grateful Dead tunes and style. I’m more of a beginner on guitar but can easily tell that he was a student of yours at Berklee :) I highly recommend Gabriel’s channel on KZfaq to any other learners who want to take some deeper dives into Jerry’s style of playing. I typed this comment before getting to the end of the video, so my apologies if Gabriel’s name happened to have been mentioned. Take care everyone and have a great new year ahead !

シルバースカイはとても気になるギターなんですよねー。ストラトでは出ないブリッジピックアップの音が好きです。ライブで自分が考え抜いたフレーズより、シンプルなフレーズを印象的と言われる事が多く、ギタリストの拘りより聴き手と楽しむ事を大切にしようと思った出来事でした。トモさんの動画でも様々なアプローチから、そうだったのか‼️と、今更ながらに気付く事が多いので、感謝と楽しむ気持ちを大切にしています。シンプルで心に残る演奏が楽しめたら最高ですね。因みに、撮影時の照明は、紙のフィルターをライトの前に入れて光を散らすと柔らかくなるかもです。それか白いスクリーンに当ててレフ板にしてみても効果的かも❓行燈みたいな感じですねー　参考になるか微妙ですが　笑

@TomoFujitaMusic 4 жыл бұрын

ありがとうございます。これはストラトではないですね。シルバースカイです！ホントによく考えて作られています。ピックガードのネジも長いし。ギター弾かない方が歌える感じ、スペースも大切にしてます（相手が消化できる時間）フレーズは、ます自分で作らないです。もうすでに素晴らしい音楽がいっぱいレコードにあるんで聴くことを毎日少しでも弾くことよりも重視します。毎日の時間の使い方がとっても貴重になってきます。小さなノートに色々目標＆反省書きます。撮影の照明は興味あるんですが全然わかってないす（笑）

おぉ～まさかグレイトフル・デッドが来るとは意外でした。僕は初期の６０年代のアルバムしか聴いたことがなくてこの曲はしりませんでした。６０年代は（デッドに限らずですが）サイケ色が強いので７７年のライブって事でだいぶ印象が違いますね！でも改めて初期の聴いてみましたがとても良かったです！昔は同時期のバンドだとTHE BANDが凄く好きだったのでデッドはあまり聴かなかったんですよね・・・でもこの曲はとても気に入りました！ただどこか聞き覚えがあるような・・・　もしかしたら若い頃通ってた音楽好きなオーナーが居る飲み屋で流れてたかもしれません^^; いつもシンプルな曲でシンプルに弾いてくれるので本当に理解しやすいです。リズムの重要性とか？も説明してくれて（るのかな？）本当に為になりますね！それにベースラインに対してのギターのミクソリディアンで下がる音の関連性とかも勉強になります！何より見てて聴いてて楽しい動画です！昔の音楽ってちゃんとコードトーンとフレーズが（メロディになっていて）結びついててしかもシンプルだから分かりやすいしシンプルイズベストという言葉どおりシンプルだからこそ美しいサンドなんですね！またカントリーのアプローチがカッコいいですね！これはカントリーが元になってるんだよという意味で弾いたのでしょうか？レッスン内容とは関係ないですがシルバースカイのピックアップってヴィンテージのポールピースと違って指板のアールに合わせた高さになってるんですね！この辺りも普通のストラトとサウンドキャラクターが違うところなのでしょうか。ペグも６連じゃなくて３対３のギブソンタイプですしテンションの具合も違うんでしょうね。いつも見るたびに新しい発見が見つかったりしてとても面白いです！いつも丁寧で楽しく勉強できる動画をありがとうございます！

ありがとうございます。たくさんリクエストを頂いてるので無理しないでゆっくり考えてこんな感じで作っています。ジャムバンドなのでフレーズもその場でバンドの反応＆動きで演奏されています。言葉で説明するのは難しいですが、ちょっとヒントになるように作りました。Silver Skyは、とっても細かく考えてつくられています。これも少し深いものがあるのでコレって言えないですが。ホントによくできています。これも普通以上の工夫があるのが素晴らしいです。また次のヴィデオをお楽しみに！

I'm simply amazed by the way you traverse across the frets in your improvisation. As an amateur in the path of self- discovering how to develop fret knowledge I'm doing a brute force methodology of using movable-do notation background to figure out which box I'm in by mapping the current note to get the scale. Like if on B string I hit 'la' with forefinger then I realise I'm in D box or instead of forefinger I hit 'la' using ring finger I assign 'la' as C# and assign E box. Do people use this methodology at all or do you really learn the frets absolutely by heart? The thing is I'll have to hit a note to know the box. I'll never be able to know absolute notes before knowing the box.

こんばんは。今宵も(日本は7月2日木曜日午前0時58分)仕事から帰宅後、楽しく拝見しました。35%位は、おっしゃっている事分かったつもりです笑　最近は楽しみになっています。ギターは奥が深いですね。トライアドはシンプルにして実に大切な基本なんですね。60の手習？笑ギターを弾き始めて46年、年数だけは引けを取らないみたいです笑　ギターは楽しいです！！　もう少しまともな事を書こうと思っているのですが文才が乏しい様です笑　いつも楽しみにしてます。頑張って楽しく動画アップお願いします🤲　いつも有り難う御座います。

ありがとうございます。ヴィデオを早速見て頂いて嬉しいです。ギターは人生です。ギターはどうしても独学でできると思ってしまう？ものなのでちゃんと学ぶと楽しさ倍増です！いっぱいヴィデオのアイデアがあるんで毎日楽しく作っています。

@@TomoFujitaMusic いえいえ、今はインターネットで簡単に調べられますので^^; でも昔から音楽に関しては分からない事があったり好きなミュージャンのインタビュー記事等で知らないアーティストやギタリストの名が出てたりするとどんな音楽なのか、どんなギタリストでどんなプレイをする人なのか？凄く気になるんです。好きな人が影響されたのだから絶対に良いはずだ！と。😅

1. Understand the 1-4 quick progression to added color. The song is B to E. But you add the 4th on each. B to a quick E and E to a quick A. 2. Learn 3 Jerry phrases 3. ? I didn't hear a level 3 Other tips: Only listen to small bits at a time. Pick a few minutes of Jerry's solo and listen to it on repeat a ton. Jerry isn't limited to one scale. It's more chord times/triads/arpeggios. It's not locked into one scale such as mixolydian. It's "around" a major scale. That gives him the ability to feel and improvise with the other notes (2, b3, 6, b7, 7, etc.). Jerry goes between playing a melody lead and playing "rhythm" lead. Tomo's examples of how changing rhythm over the same notes completely changes everything. Learning more than 3 things at a time is not practical and people will have difficulty applying it.

Love your lessons. Very valuable practical stuff. It might help the viewers to clearly state the 3 things in the beginning, then show them with the lesson, then review them at the end. Also, it's helpful when you explain what you are playing. I'm working on my ear and know I should be able to hear it. But I'm an amateur any explanation helps. Like how you described that mixolydian dyadic walk down. Very helpful. Hope those comment help. Thanks again for your teaching. I appreciate it!

Thanks so much for your review! Basically 1) Triads 2) Jerry's phrasing 3) Don't think scales & use more feeling like Jerry!!

My fault! Sorry! I taught too many things! You're correct! Supposed to only 3 levels! That's why I really enjoy making my Guitar Wisdom course where each video only contain ONE topic at times.

フッと思った。日本では英会話に通う人、小学生から、いや、幼稚園から英語教育、英会話スクールに通うようになっているが、本場英語の国アメリカに住んでいるので、簡単な英会話を動画につけたしたらどうかな？と思ったり。

ボクも英会話の学校にアメリカに行く前に行きましたが、問題はその時間以外に日本語で考えてたんで意味がなかったです。英語漬けにしないと。でしね。これは日本でもやろうと思うとできます。

yeah, but you can hardly expect the average person to get there without knowing a mixolydian scale so it's really unfair as to what you're saying and I think you need to start considering mortal human beings
