I'm a tone junkie. Of course technique is important but the tone you get from your fingers and heart onto the fretboard of that vintage Gibson is perfect for this style of jazz and or blues. Great inspiration for new guys like myself with this genre.

I beleive that sunny music will save the world😊

Wow, fantastic! This is such a great tune. It's just one of many amazing Charlie Christian solos that anyone familiar with Charlie's recordings know very well. There is just nobody like him, in my opinion. He operates on a whole different level. What is even more amazing about his recording and performing career is that it all happened in about 5 or 6 years, and then he was tragically gone at the age of 26. An entire generation of the greatest names in jazz guitar history from Barney Kessel to Wes Montgomery and many others, have all bowed down to his enormous talent and influence.

Alex is truly a gifted teacher helping those of us who aspire to play at a deeper level and - at least for me, newer to jazz guitar - so much packed into each of these episodes - thank you, Alex!

[portsideguitar]

Man, I’m always so impressed by your mastery and deep dives on all my favorite genres and players. I’ll never know how you know so much but I’m immensely grateful you are sharing it all!

[matthiasscheffler]

Alex - I love the seemingly plain but totally genius and seminal early jazz guitar style Charlie Christian played... and you are teaching this perfectly well!

[duyle]

I think this might be the best lesson on Christian's style. Thank you, Alex.

[uberjam-sam]

And I quote: it's all about keeping track of the beat. Staying in the pocket. That is what it's all about another great lessons fun to listen to you play and explain (on its own) as well as learn. Cheers!

[greatvanzini]

Wow! Something about Charlie I can actually understand. Thank you so much.

[IsaacSmelcZhan]

I have a 59’ Es125, it is great to see other people using ES125s to cover one of my favorite guitarists, Charlie Christian.

[maineguitarists]

I listened to three other guitarists on YouTube play this number. You played it with more pzass or bounce than they. You have blues and jazz in your soul! tom

[johnpandolfino]

Love Charlie's wrote the long time ago ...great lesson Alex 👏👌⛄🔥🇺🇸😎💪👍💰🦫

[daithi]

Love the way you casually, nonchalantly rip this brilliant solo off 😀👍

[davidwilkinson]

Absolutely fantastic lesson
Thank you so much
So detailed 👍

[jbowerman]

I've been playing guitar at least 50 yrs, I've heard many praise CC, some try to tell you all about his playing, but very very few can reproduce his sound, tone, and technique quite like your examples. Thankyou

[JazzStrat]

Wonderful video and playing, just like always! Keep up the great work 👍🎸

[tjesson]

Fantastic lesson. Appreciate the content. For a beginner Charlie Christian nut this lesson was exactly what I needed. Now just got to bring it up to speed 😅

[jukejointjack]

Love this jam
Crucial thanks brother

[ericmintz]

Thanks, Alex. Great tune, great rendition, great lesson. (And as soon as Louis appeared, the algorithm cut straight to an ad for cat litter. He's earning his keep!)

[jimc]

Excellent live stream new course and interaction this morning, kitty and all!! Getting my friend Chris Mullin's attention is a great positive direction for your site as he has quite a few good connections and influence!! Jim C.
