Soloing Over A Gypsy Jazz Blues Progression I got a question about how to solo over a gypsy jazz blues progression and here's some pointers which you'll find useful. To clarify a 'Gypsy Jazz' blues is slightly different from a 'Jazz Blues' and a 'Blues Blues' It's important to understand this difference before you start soloing over the progression. Django Reinhardt composed and played tunes like 'Blues Clair' & 'Swing De Paris' which follow this progression. Like soloing over any progression it's first vital to understand the chord changes and memorise them. These will be going along in your head as you create your solos. Gypsy Jazz Blues 1. The first chord in a gypsy jazz blues is C major unlike in a jazz blues when it's C7. 2. The basic 12 bar progression C/// F7/// C/// Gm7/C7/ F7/// F7/// C/// C/E/Eb/ Dm7/// G7/// C/// Dm7/G7/ Soloing Over Gypsy Jazz Blues 1. Think C major for C 2. Then think C minor for F7 3. Have a good lick for the 2-5-1 (Dm7-G7-C) Have fun and take it slow & easy! cheers, Robin If you have a question about gypsy jazz just zap me a email: questions@gypsyjazzsecrets.com and check out my Gypsy Jazz Songbook Series here: ➜ http://www.gypsyjazzguitarnow.com
