was inspired to construct and analyze these chords as a result meeting
and conversing with John Stowell,
who I think is one of the most unique and accomplished jazz guitarists
playing today. He has written a number of articles that explore many detailed
and sophisticated examples of non-traditional chords and progressions,
as well as other interesting and unique approaches to voicing chords.
Here are a few of his articles: "Stretcho-O-Rama," Guitar Player (June 1995, p. 149) "Colossal Voicings," Guitar Player (February 1995, p. 154) "Jangling Jazz Chords," Guitar Player (March 1996, p. 135) "Souped-Up Blues," Guitar Player (January 1998, p. 134) |
