~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ 2 The January HJGS members night got off to a fantastic start with a great turn-out and a number of, most welcome, new faces. A great time was had by all and the playing standard was, on the whole, extremely high! In usual HJGS tradition, the evening kicked off with a short set from Tom Prior. He began with a rubato version of Over the Rainbow, full of Priorisms, that is, myriad unexpected twists and turns. Tom draws from a mixed bag of guitar techniques and, like another of our home-grown talents, Gary Potter, is not afraid to mix musical genres and their signature licks and techniques! The results are guaranteed to keep listeners on their toes. Second up was Adam Hinchliffe, who gave us two tunes in his customary and carefully executed, chord melody style. Thats All and If I Had You were both technically and musically accomplished with a lush full tone. Adam was followed by Robin Thomas, who gave an impromptu talk on the late great Jim Hall, illustrated by two LP sleeves and profound observations on Halls appearance and lack of hair! Robin then proceeded to give us to solo renditions of tunes associated with Hall: Autumn Leaves and Summertime. A short period of disruption then followed, while the Idle Guits gathered for a not particularly jazzy, but well arranged, version of Maria Elena, which did include a surprisingly nice ending (side slipping?). The Guits then fragmented into performances 3 by one or more of its members. Robert Fowler played and sang a convincing version of Manh de Carnival. Roberts singing, like Joo Gilberto and Astrud, was just slightly out of tune which, when coupled with the use of nylon guitar, sounded wonderfully authentic. Robert also has a very good bossa nova feel. Richard Speight then played All the Things You Are, accompanied by Darren on bass. Unfortunately, Richards nerves appeared to get the better of him and he did not play to his full potential. The Guits spot concluded with Colin and Darren playing an arrangement of Stella by Starlight.
Its always good to hear the Jazz Dawgs, with their tight arrangements and delightful double guitar harmonies. They played Tenor Madness, which segued between regular 12 bar sequences and Charlie Parkers, modified, Blues for Alice chord changes, followed by Pete Wraiths vocal rendering of Undecided. The latter included an unexpected Farlowesque ending, cycling upwards in minor 3 rd s and resolving (sic) on a crunchy b5 chord!
Following the mandatory interval and raffle etc., Terri Shaltiel and Steve Fraser gave us two contrasting duets: Gone with the Wind and, replete with vocals from Steve, Albert Kings Born Under a Bad Sign. This was an about turn for this duo, as Terri is better known as singer and Steve as a guitarist! This said, they gave a nice performance and, despite some nerves, Terri proved to be a really fine accompanist.
Next up was Steve Billy Buckley, perhaps one of the finest players in the UK, certainly in the North. It was great to see Steve at a HJGS meeting and it is to be hoped that he will come again soon. He played a wonderful solo rendition of Polka Dots and Moonbeams, which was both musical and virtuosic and, more importantly, it swung! He was then joined by Adrian Ingram for an up-tempo rendition of Willow Weep for Me, resulting in more fiery blues and bebop from both players. Steve and 4 Adrian go back a long way, as Steve spent 3 years at Leeds College of Music. They also share a mutual passion for old British motorcycles, vintage guitars, rockabilly and all things jazz guitar!!!
Another top professional team followed, with Trefor Owen and Andy Hulme. They began with Emily, Trefor taking the head and first solo. How About You, followed with a beautifully harmonized head, containing the principal melody on the bottom a la George Shearing! For the second time in evening we were treated to a rendition of Manh de Carnival, in which Trefor played the head and 1 st solo, much of which was taken at lightning speed reflecting Owens Pat Martino inspired technique.
Completing a very enjoyable evening were Jez Platt and Martin Chung, two of Huddersfields finest and most experienced players. As ever, funk was to the fore in their performances of Sunny and Cantaloupe Island. As expressive and immaculately played as ever, it would be interesting, (and perhaps only a matter of time) to hear this duo tackle more harmonically sophisticated music, such as the general American songbook of standards.
As everyone left they reminded, once again, that the next meeting would be a Duke Elephant night!!! See you then.

Members News Call for Membership Participation We have had a few successful, I believe, examinations/investigations of members favourite tunes. If you feel you could do a similar job please let me know. Send an email to huddjazzguitsoc@gmail.com or chat to any of the committee at the next meeting. Remember the HJGS exists for the benefit(s) of its members, so we need to hear from YOU: good, bad, indifferent, news, views, gossip, ideas, viewpoints, gigs, sales wants, swaps etc, etc! Please keep us informed of any jazz guitar related gigs, events, sales or other item of interest, so that we can pass information on to other members. HJGS needs to develop its wider network as an important forum for jazz guitar related information 5 and information exchange, so that we may all benefit from the collective wisdom and uncoordinated information that undoubtedly exists amongst fans and connoisseurs.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Swap an Idea This column appears to be popular so we will keep it for the time being. But, and this is an important but we do NEED YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS for this to be successful. Contributions please to huddjazzguitsoc@gmail.com. This months contribution is from Daren Dutson Bromley This months lick shows how it is possible to create a bluesy effect using chord melody techniques. The basic chords are G7 and C7, as you might find in the first two bars of a blues. Whilst the melody is fairly indicative of a blues the chords behind on first glance seem very complicated yet when played still maintain a bluesy and cohesive sound.
The lick begins with Gb7 leading into G7, this is a chromatic approach chord The third chord is Bm7b5, this chord can be interchange freely with G7 as it contains the same notes as G9 minus the root. The notes B and Bb can both be used as they are the third and the flat third of the scale and it is Bb that imparts the bluesy flavour. The fourth chord contains Bb. The fifth chord is Ab diminished, a common substitution for G7. The final two chords of the bar are G7 and G13. The next bar is based around C7 then C9 followed by C13. The final two chords of the bar are diminished chords implying C7b9 and a C6 chord with a b5 and b3, two common blues notes before finishing with G13. Although this seems complicated once the principles behind it are understood it quickly becomes possible to improvise effective licks in a similar fashion.

9 Daniel Slamen Luthier Extraordinaire!
During a recent visit to The Hague, three representatives from HGJS paid a visit to Hollands premier archtop maker: Daniel Slamen. Adrian Ingram and Nick Lunn already knew Daniel through Axel Hagen, a fine jazz guitarist and mutual friend. Axel and Adrian have visited Daniel several times before, but it was the first time that, committee member, Ian Wroe had seen Slamens instruments and he was well impressed by their sound, workmanship and overall finish, which he concluded were as fine as anything he had seen. Daniel began many years ago, initially constructing classical guitars before gradually being steered (by word of mouth and a full order book) towards the virtually exclusive manufacture of archtop instruments. Daniel has a particular fondness for ES150s and ES250s equipped with (very good) replicas of 1930s Charlie Christian pickups and makes this model as standard. He recently made a copy the unusual Ronnie Singer ES150 in black and with fancy ES250 appointments (see picture right). Slamen is unusual, in that alongside his very accurate and fine sounding replicas, he is also an innovator, turning out such unusual instruments as dome-topped classicals and archtops with F holes and nylon strings. Even on the vintage front he is not afraid to, for example, fit 3 Charlie Christian pickups to one guitar! Daniel is situated in an easy to find street in the centre of The Hague and, providing you contact him beforehand, will extend a warm welcome to any HJGS members. Website: http://www.slamanguitars.com/ 10 Here are a few pictures of Daniels workshops (with a familiar face or two).

12 Here is a new guitar strap/support we came across at a recent guitar show. It looked very impressive.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Most jazz guitars have magnetic pickups and jazz guitarists often have strong views as to which type or make of pickup provides them with their favoured sound. Many players will take the trouble to fit replacement pickups in order to find the ideal sound for their taste. There is a wide choice available. However for the player who requires a true acoustic tone for their style of playing, Hot Club for example, all too often the choice is limited to a microphone (mic) on a stand or an under saddle transducer. The worst case scenario is when the guitarist has to borrow whatever mic comes with the house P.A., point it at the instrument and hope for the best! If the player is lucky, the mic will be one designed for instruments rather than the more common vocal mic, (an SM58 is great for vocals but its frequency response and proximity effect which are designed to enhance vocals make it less than ideal for instruments), and of course the stand mic requires the guitarist to maintain a constant distance between the instrument and the mic (posture issues). 13 The under saddle transducer produces a distinctive electro-acoustic sound. This is because it feels the structural vibrations of the instrument rather than hearing the sound waves transmitted through the air, as our ears do. Extensive eq correction is often required in order to produce an acceptable sound and even then it is not a true acoustic sound. Microvox offers a solution to many problems of reproducing a true acoustic sound. The system consists of a dedicated power supply (NB it is not a preamp) and a miniature flat response condenser mic. The mic element is housed in a small black aluminium block and faces down onto the instrument. It attaches to the instrument by means of a Velcro pad. This method of fixing isolates the mic from unwanted structural vibration and ensures the mic is a fixed and constant distance from the sound source. Any pickup device is the first link in the amplification chain. Microvox system mics ensure that this first crucial link is as faithful to the true sound as possible. Members of HJGS will receive a 10% discount on all Microvox products from Westfield Music in Wakefield.

The recommended Microvox for acoustic guitar is M400 with either PSU.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Also from Jamie Holroyd: - RGT Jazz Guitar Diplomas I'd also like to mention the new RGT Jazz Guitar Performance Diplomas that I have been helping private students prepare for. These are ideal for those looking for certification in jazz guitar performance, but dont want to go the traditional University route. I have had a great experience with them so far with my students, and they are accredited by the London College of Music a cost only a small fraction of what a traditional university course does. From the RGT website The Diplomas focus on developing the technical skills and theory needed by guitarists playing a broad range of jazz styles. The exam content includes improvisation and rhythm playing, as well as a performance element that enables the guitarist to demonstrate their preferred style of jazz playing - whether that be classic jazz tunes such as those of Django Reinhardt and Wes Montgomery or tracks by more contemporary players such as Pat Metheny and John Scofield. There are four levels of Jazz Guitar Performance Diploma available: Diploma Of The London College Of Music - DipLCM Associate Of The London College Of Music - ALCM Licentiate Of The London College Of Music - LLCM Fellowship Of The London College Of Music - FLCM Each diploma provides guitarists with the opportunity to gain an internationally recognised professional qualification and to develop their jazz playing skills to an advanced level. The Diplomas are awarded by London College of Music Exams and are accredited by the University of West London.
