Charlie Parker Chromatic Lick Video Lesson
Guitar Lesson Overview
This lick I learned from Charlie Parker - "Bird". He was a phenomenal player and anything you can pick up from him is worth learning :) This lick is very bluesy sounding, and will work either in a blues or jazz setting. I have made another video similar to this one that uses mostly the same notes, but it sounds more like blues than jazz.
This lick is in key of E, or E7 if you wish. Hope you like it!
I also suggest you check out the video lesson of a blues chromatic lick similar to this one. It is more guitar oriented than this Parker lick.
