It’s like visual art, you’ll never get the real sense of the work unless you directly eyeball and pause to soak it in

It is important to point out 'these' guitarists are only a subset of modern guitarists. They feed on the male proclivity to rank and order things - based on simple criteria; speed, finger wiggling and zooming over the neck. Musicality is way down the list of actual requirements, it is little more than a party trick to impress a section of music listeners - usually male and under thirty who are still arguing over whether Alvin Lee or Rory Gallagher is the best/fastest guitarist. I remember my time in high school, sat at the back of class making these lists with classmates instead of learning 2nd order differentials of transcendental functions back in the seventies. Little did I realize fifty years later guys would be making a good living on the internet compiling such lists. It speaks volumes to the deep male psyche. Back to the internet guitarist phenomenon, the skill is essentially parallel to typing or texting at great speed - it is a passing curiosity. Someone once said something along the lines of ' A great typist does not a great author make.

Thank you for stating it so clearly!

I ABSOLUTELY LOVE YOUR PLAYING..YOUR UNDERSTANDING OF GUITAR IS INCREDIBLE... I AM A MASSIVE, MASSIVE UNCLE~MR.AL DI MEOLA FANATIC....

NICE ONE.COULD YOU MAKE ANY AMBIENT RELATED STUFF?

I followed John for 40+ years and discovered a bunch of these chords along the way. So beautiful. But you always do a great job, Cliff!! You accuracy & subtlety is brilliant and REALLY helpful to capture the amazing feel that John produces in his acoustic music! THANK YOU

I love the sound of these wide arpeggio inversions. It really wakes me up to different possibilities with string skipping. Thanks very much Cliff, another gem!!!!

Hey the Vandenberg is back nice guitar that cliff 👍

Sounds super useful, will try and hunt down a copy!

Hi Cliff Listening here dear...nice topic & great review of the book ...interesting

Dammit, I would have discussed this with John McLaughlin when I met him, only I wouldn't have understood a single word of his answer.

Good tip thank you.

I remember don mock he had a great video out in the late 80s. From blues to rock jazz on REH great tutor and very nice Iintervalic player highly recommended cheers cliff

wonderful backing track. Stands out a lot among the usual ones on youtube!

Good lesson, John McLaughlin is a terrific player. I was wondering, would you be willing to do a video where you explain the chords that John McLaughlin uses in Shakti for example on the song Joy or Peace of Mind. I’ve always seen these chords being used in jazz, but somehow John made them work with indian ragas. Thanks, cheers.

Great ! I love it ! I do something similar without any reference to modes and with much much less technique !

I see something akin to gypsy jazz picking here!🤔👍

Great Cliff, very informative; those Parker guitars were beautiful, innovative and every time I see one I regret not purchasing that Parker nylon strings that I tried at Denmark street, downtown London. That was in back in 2001, a few years back!

YOU.,SIR ARE A PHENOMENAL VIRTUOSO GUITARIST... I LOVE ALL OF YOUR VIDEO'S.. YOU REMIND ME SO MUCH OF UNCLE~MR.JOHN MCLAUGHLIN... COULD YOU..WOULD YOU PLEASE COVER SOME UNCLE~MR.AL DI MEOLA LESSONS??? UNCLE~MR.AL DI MEOLA WAS MY VERY FIRST GUITAR HERO... THANK YOU FOR ALL OF YOUR VIDEO'S..

Nice lines in there cliff top job Phil 👍

Back for another excellent lesson. Clifford. Thanks! 🤠😎👏👍👍🎸🎸🎵🎹🎹 Cheers, Bruce

hi maestro Martin, question - what type of tension do you use for the nylon strings, then the type of plectrum you have in the clip, I also noticed that in the first shot from above the position of the tip of the plectrum is slightly moved forward .. it's his choice, I think it's random...!. thank you in advance for any response, I greet you, stay well, a hug & see you next time... 🙂🙃😉/🎼🎵✨🎶🤍🎻🪇🎙️🪘🎹🪈🎺🎷🪕🎸🪗🥁🤍🎵✨🎶/👍✌🏽👌🏼👋🏿

Actually logic because a F#7sus is another voicing of C#m. An eye-opener 😊

Pat Martino was an intervalic master great tutorial cliff 👍

"Dominant minor" ? What is dominant about the natural minor scale ?

Great tutorial cliff have a great weekend Phil 👍

Ii-V-is in descending in major thirds - so a great suggestion fir tackling Giant Steps. Thanks for this.
