Great performer - So-so teacher,
By
This review is from: Chord Solo Guitar, Vol. 1 with John Carlini (DVD)
Chord soloing is playing chords over a melody. Doing this on a guitar faces some challenges: mostly, you play four string chords and you need to outline the chord and the melody on top of it. Piano players have it so easy. :)
Most jazz tunes have frequent chord changes and alterations, so it's certainly tricky. What an interesting topic to try to teach, isn't it? Mr Carlini is a great jazz guitar player, but he's not an interesting teacher. Most of the songs are mostly show offs. He hurries over the necessary explanations and just refers to the booklet. He misses these points: # how do you play these songs? # what are chord options and why can you substitute to other chords? # how can you work through chord options to get the optimum playing My advice to Mr Carlini is to cut down the number of songs to three or four and thoroughly walk through them. Unfortunately, there aren't tons of other instructional DVDs in this area, but hope you find something else.

Not For Beginners,
This review is from: Chord Solo Guitar, Vol. 1 with John Carlini (DVD)
Very impressive performances, but not for beginners. Also, to the sellers asking 168 bucks for this: honestly, are you nuts?
