  2. My Cherie Amour

    https://soundcloud.com/neiles335/my-cherie-amour  My version of the song.
    A very popular hit by the great Stevie Wonder from his album of the same name in 1969. Not a really difficult song... most late intermediate and advanced students should be able to handle this one!
    Enjoy!  Neil
    ps The recorded version has an intro, and a 3rd verse where the key goes up a half step to Ab from Gmaj. This is not noted on the Lead Sheet.

  3. Jazz "Comping" Chords

    If you'd like to try some of the jazz tunes I've uploaded here, you'll need to know a few more basic chord shapes! It's only 8 chords to memorize.
    If you haven't gone through Steve K's Fretboard Workout Jazz Chords, then here's a few to get you started. You'll be surprised what you can play with these beautiful sounding chords. They can be used in other applications too of course. 
    Note that in these chord charts, the view is from the 6th string on the bottom, and the red dot indicates the root note! (this could be backward to what you're used to seeing) 
    Enjoy!

    Another Jazz Classic Bossa Nova tune by Antonito Carlos Jobim. A bit more advanced, but not out of the question for an intermediate player.  A really great tune! Have fun with it!

    My recording of this song; 
    Tip on playing this song; It's all about the rhythm! Listen to the original version on YouTube and the many other recordings by various artists. The melody is actually quite simple, based on the Am Pentatonic Scale, played in the 5th position. Have fun with it!  Neil

    If you know a your Major, Minor and a few Diminshed / half Diminished chords, you'll find that this song is fairly easy to play. It's all in the rhythm!
