Celebrating the art and craft of jazz guitar

1. Meeting Summary
Hi Jazz Guitar Fans,
Im amazed, what started one afternoon in a pub as a bit of a moan, over a pint, about
the parlous state of jazz, and jazz guitar in particular, and ended with the throw away why
dont guys you do something has just started its fourth year. A big thank you to everyone,
players and guests alike, who have helped make this the success it is.
The August Players Night saw yet another fantastic turnout for the society; lets
hope that the word is spreading. For one thing, any extra funds that can be raised can be
used to fund further concerts and promotions. Ian and Adrian are on a guitar playing holiday
in the USA for a month later this year and will certainly be on the lookout for future guests.
Remember, also, that being up-north we have a slight disadvantage, in that booking players
from down-south i.e. Matt Chandler, Jim Mullen, Nigel Price, Phil Robson et al, always
incurs the additional cost of travel. It is helpful, therefore, to have a good body of members
as we do not, as yet, attract any funding from elsewhere!
Anyway, back to the August session. As ever,
the evening began with Tom Prior joined by Larry Van
Kriedt for a spontaneously composed Blues in F both
players played well and appeared to be egging each
other on to literally, go for it!





Next up were three of the Idle Guits (Mini
Guits?), who played a ragtimy Breeze from
Alabama before being joined by Dave
Vangelderen for John Pizzarellis Seven on Charlie, his tribute to Charlie Christian, with a
play on words from the Christian/Benny Goodman classic Seven Come Eleven. Daves
regular duet partner was away on holiday and, consequently, Dave seemed to be having a
ball by joining in with all kinds of things. Its really nice to see HJGS members so
comfortable with one another that they are able to do this.
Darren and Robin then played Moonglow, at
an uncharacteristically brisk tempo. It did, however,
swing along very nicely. They then played the
Django perennial Nuages led in the main by Robin.
Apart from a couple of times, when they became out
of sync., with the changes this also went well and as
it is one of those tunes (like Hoagy Carmichaels
Georgia) that almost everyone plays different chord
changes to, it is hardly surprising that there were
occasional clashes.
3
Newcomers Pete and Jan, sporting classical,
nylon stringed, instruments, played two effectively
arranged tunes: The Pink Panther and Stardust.
The later effortlessly segued into Polka Dots and
Moonbeams which worked well, at a brighter pace
than usual, but, consequently, was closer in tempo
to the original.
Next, bassist Charles finally got his chance to
play a Stevie Wonder tune when he teamed up with
Darren to play Lately! Darren was then joined by
Adam for an unusual reading of So What, in which Adam played the bass line, of the call and
response head, a couple of octaves above the norm. They followed this with Jobims One
Note Samba which brought the first half of the evening
to a close.
Following the usual, raffle and catch-
up, interval the Idle Guits took to the stage
with a cast of thousands! Perhaps in anticipation of the next Gershwin night, or perhaps
because they had had another month to rehearse its tricky rhythms, they played Gershwins
Fascinatin Rhythm. In contrast, Cleo aided by Ian and Darren sang a bluesy rendition of
Black Coffee. Dave Vangelderen and Darren then played the Charles Mingus classic
Nostalgia in Times Square, which worked very well on two guitars, and Body and Soul.
As usual, this later stage of the evening, Martin and Jez treated us to Manha de
Carnival and I Wish I Knew How it Would Feel
to be Free. Superb playing all round, with some
very Mullenesque hammer-ons in Jezs solos.
Darren was then up for his final appearance of
the night to back Adrian and Ian on Wes
Montgomereys 4 on 6.
Adrian remained to accompany newcomer
Dave Allen on All the Things You Are. Another
great evening was brought to a close by Ian and
Stephen Frazier, who played the Minnie Ripperton
classic Lovin You.

and this is an important but we do NEED YOUR CONTRIBUTIONS for this to be
successful. Contributions please to huddjazzguitsoc@gmail.com.
This month Darren continues his mini series looking at influential guitarists.
Tal Farlow
Darren Dutson Bromley

Continuing with our series on players who have helped define the sound of the modern jazz
guitar we next move to Tal Farlow. As a player, these days his name isn't necessarily on
everybody's lips, jazz guitar, to many, is Joe Pass, Django Reinhardt, Jim Hall, Pat Metheny.
Tals importance and output however shouldn't be
underestimated, he was a formidable player and
anyone unfamiliar with his recordings should search
them out.

Tal Farlow began playing the guitar seriously in his
early twenties and like so many other guitarists was
influenced by Charlie Christian. He taught himself
how to play all of Charlie Christian's solos by
listening to Benny Goodman records. So great was
his abilities and dedication he was performing professionally not long after. Interestingly it is
often claimed that Tal didnt take up the guitar until he was twenty-one and he began playing
professionally less than a year later. Whilst this is a nice story it isnt necessarily true. Here is
what Tal says in an early interview for guitarist magazine.
"My dad had a guitar for as long as I can remember, real small; he strung up a mandolin for
me, tuned in the same intervals as the top four strings of the guitar, and I played on that for a
while. Then, when I grew a little bit, I started to play on the guitar. By then my hands were so
large that I could negotiate the extra two strings with my thumb. So I got into playing with two
different experiences: first with the four strings and then with the six.
I wasn't fascinated by the music of the area that I lived in; it was
called hill-billy then, and I guess it was the forerunner of country
and western music. Tunes that are standards now: some of them
were written during that time, tunes by Cole Porter, Jerome Kern,
Gershwin, etc. I didn't have any instruction at all; though I guess
my father must have shown me the basic first position chords. But
he played a different kind of music on the guitar, mostly reels and
jigs. I always got a good feeling from discovering chord
progressions and being able to work them out. I think I must have
heard Carl Kress, Dick McDonough, Eddie Lang, Lonnie Johnson,
but I don't remember their names from then. A lot of musicians
used to use different names but kept the same initials, they did this
so that they could make records but still safeguard their contract
with their main label.
7
After a stint with the Marjorie Hyams band Tal joined the Red Norvo Trio in 1949 and it was here
he began to develop recognition in the jazz world. He had unusually large hands and an ability
to play rapid runs and phrases giving rise to the nickname Octopus. After a stint with Artie
Shaw in 1953 Tal decided to form his own band. It was at this time when he recorded a number
of albums under his own name and cemented his reputation as one of the all time great
guitarists.
After being named best guitarist in the Down Beat critics' poll in 1956, 1957 and 1958, Tal
surprisingly retired from recording and touring and settled in New Jersey, returning to his
original occupation of sign painter. He continued to play in local clubs around Seabright and
made one recording.
It was the Concord Jazz label that brought Tal out of retirement in the mid 1970s to make a
series of recordings that share equal importance as the ones he recorded in the 1950s. It is
these two sets of recordings that offer a unique glimpse into the incredible style of this
amazing guitarist. He was also profiled in the documentary film, Talmage Farlow, made in
1980/81.
Farlow died of cancer at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Cancer Center in New York City on July
25, 1998, at the age of 77

Tals Guitar

The Gibson Tal Farlow model was first released in 1962. It has
a body that is reminiscent of the popular ES-5 in its basic
dimensions, but from there it departs in its own unique way. Its
trademark faux-scroll rounded cutaway (Farlows own design),
upside-down J-200 fingerboard inlays, double-crown headstock
inlays, and Tal Farlow trapeze tailpiece with inlaid rosewood
block set it apart from any other archtop Gibson had ever
created. This unusual signature model has always been rare
and only 215 examples were produced between 1962-69. Due
to poor sales and a lack of popular interest, the Tal Farlow
model lasted only five years (1962-1967)

Gibsons Custom Shop now
makes the Tal Farlow in the
exact image of the original,
down to the enlarged five-
point pickguard and the
Farlow scroll cutaway,
creatednow as thenby
curling the binding into the body at the cutaway to create the impression of a mandolin-like
scroll. Its a full-sized archtop at 17 wide and, more comfortable than other models of its day,
3 deep. As preferred by many jazz guitarists, including Farlow, the ES rounded neck profile
is made to a 25 1/2 scale length, with a 1 11/16 nut width. The model also features multi-ply
8
binding on the bodys top and back, single-ply white binding on the fingerboard, headstock,
and f-holes, and is available in vintage sunburst and viceroy brown. Fully acoustic, the Tal
Farlow model is also fully electric with two set-in humbucking pickups with individual volume
and tone controls and a three-way selector switch. It has a floating rosewood bridge base
carrying an ABR-1 tune-o-matic bridge.

A documentary was made about Tal called Talmage Farlow. It
has some footage of him playing with the late Lenny Breau. It is
worth searching this out and is currently available as a DVD.

Elements of Bebop Guitar,
ROCHINSKI STEVE -

Publishing, 1994




Tals Playing Style
Here is an excerpt from an interview with Tal that was published in Guitar Magazine in
December '81 and January '82. Tal was, at that time touring the UK with Red Norvo. Here he
discusses who and what influenced his playing style.
So, as soon as I left school, I started at the sign shop for about two dollars a week. After
working there for a few years, when I was competent enough to sell my work, my boss let me
work at night. This allowed me to listen to the radio and hear what they called remotes - outside
broadcasts of the big bands of the day. I heard bands like Artie Shaw, Jimmy and Tommy
Dorsey, and Benny Goodman. It was then that I first heard Charlie Christian playing. I bought
all the records he made with Benny Goodman and had a standing order for any new ones that
came out. Listening to them, I started to copy the solos by relating what he was playing to the
chords that I knew - he seemed to play pretty firmly in chord positions. My interpretation of
what he did was that he spelt out certain chords: 9th and 6ths that I was playing in chord style.
From these I was able to work out his choruses note for note; and in that way I got a little
insight into why he played certain things in some places and how they related to the harmonic
flow. Sometime later I heard the piano playing of Art Tatum - he would make little harmonic
changes to a song in order to get his jazz phrases to fit better. This fired my interest in
restructuring harmony to get the feeling of the jazz concept. I also discovered Lester Young,
who was playing with the Count Basie Band. Listening to him, I heard similar phrases to those
10
played by Charlie Christian and came to the conclusion - I don't know if it's correct but I believe
that it is - that Charlie was listening pretty sharply to Lester's solos. So I did the same, and
learnt quite a few of them. His style was really effective, but also not too complicated. Then I
heard Coleman Hawkins. He explored the changes a little more thoroughly than Lester did -
Lester sort of floated on top of the chord changes and stuck nearer to the tunes. Of course, all
that sort of thing fascinated me a lot.
The example Ive chosen to illustrate Tals playing style is a chord melody introduction to the
song Like Someone in Love. This is on the album The Swinging Guitar of Tal Farlow.
Interestingly the albums Autumn in New York, The Swinging Guitar of Tal Farlow and This
is Tal Farlow have been released on one CD that is available from Amazon for 8 as a hard
copy (much cheaper for a download). These albums are an excellent addition to any jazz
guitarists collection and are highly recommended.

I am sending you some photos of a Chinese 7 string which I want to sell. I only want
500 for it. The quality
is as good as top flight
instruments. I spent
quite a bit getting it set
up and upgrading fittings
and pu., which is a Bare
Knuckle Black Hawk.
Excellent for 7 string
because of the defined
bass response. It is semi hollow and Les Paul
size. I thought you might know someone who is interested in 7
string and wants to try it but without spending a fortune.
