Fast Track To Swing Chording

Fast Track To Swing Chording

‘Fast Track To Swing Chording,’ is a direct, simple to follow ‘play first’ method for learning to chord in the Swing genre. Swing chording is unlike any other chording technique. It is style-specific much like Bluegrass accompaniment, Travis picking and the Blues. Like many Jazz guitarists at the time, my introduction to Jazz was Mickey Baker’s book 1. It started out with a page of chord shapes, then it got you to play them in sequences. Right off the bat you were up and running! This is the approach used here. Also available by the same author: ‘Jazz Improvising For The Rock/Blues Guitarist’ ‘Jazz Chording For The Rock/Blues Guitarist, ‘New Tools For Improvisation,’ and ‘Learn Your Guitar Neck Once And For All,’ Books 1 and 2.
