2 The rovsed solo: As uscans, we tend to e lown away y the latest and greatest fast lazng gutar layer The frst thng that strkes e aout ths solo s sace Jy lets the drus set u the groove to hel set u the head of the song He also lets the drus rng h ack nto the elody after the solo I asked Jy aout the sace and he sad that n all of hs years of layng that he learned how to let a rhyth secton hel h to rovse through a solo Chet Atkns always sad that layng a solo s learnng the ortance of sace y learnng where not to lay Larry Carlton has soken of the ortance of edtng your layng Howard Roerts sad that usc always egns wth slence Ths solo s a erfect exale of layng sarse and lettng the rhyth secton groove hel carry you through the solo Ths s an ortant lesson for anyone to learn and the rncal reason that we should all learn ths solo Jy layed every note on ths alu wth hs rght hand fngers wthout any hel fro a ck In ths solo secton, he s anly alternatng hs thu and ndex wth a lttle hel fro the rng and ddle fngers when he gets n troule crossng strngs or e, hs tone s so strong and focused that the only reason that I know he ddn t use a ck s ecause he told e so Havng sad that, I have also learned ths solo wth a ck as well Jy sees to e thnkng ore n ters of layng nsde tonal centers rather than layng over the changes The changes are fro the head of the tune and the lowng changes could also e a lttle sler esecally n the ass lne under the gutar solo There are any laces where hs note choces see to e of the nor tonalty and not of the secfc chord change I would have never thought to lay the notes that Jy layed at dfferent ont n the solo, ut Jy akes t work A strong sense of lne and elody s ortant to ull ths off Another reason that ths s an ortant work to learn In the rdge, Jy layed sx quarter note C s over a chord That was roaly the easest ar of usc that I have ever transcred! My frst queston for Jy was: Jy, can t you fnd anythng etter to lay than that? Jy laughed and sad that he was thnkng aout Count ase at that oent and just lettng that reeatng note hel the usc to reathe The lne that follows s truly nsratonal, and now I understand the lne over the and A change wouldn t have had the sae effect f that sae lne had followed a lot of notes over the change or e, fully understandng ths concet wll hel e grow as a uscan I hoe that learnng ths solo wll hel your uscal work n rogress to grow and develo as well I would also lke to thank randon ernsten for hs nvaluale hel n roofreadng ths anuscrt and helng fnd soe stakes that have een around for decades Ths s truly the cleanest verson that exsts of ths classc Jy Wyle cooston Davd Oakes July, Jy s Sketchook Vol 2 - wrtten y Jy Wyle Coyrght Jy Wyle All Rghts Reserved
