Playing Variations Of A Single Idea

In this video, guitarist Tim Fitzgerald shows how Wes Montgomery riffs on variations from a single idea.

Tim Fitzgerald’s 625 Alive book transcribes exactly what Wes played on film from his BBC sessions. When paired with the video footage, the book provides incomparable insight into Wes’ improvisations and his physical approach to the guitar.

All the video footage of Wes performing on Jazz 625 is available on YouTube, as well as on the Legends of Jazz Guitar Volumes 1 and 2.
