I'm
so thrilled to see a book
by my greatest teacher,
Randy Vincent!! Randy's deep musical
and theoretical understanding
of the guitar have been
invaluable
to me. His book provides
insight into the orchestral
qualities of the guitar
and how to apply this knowledge
to any musical context.” —

Like
many people, I didn't know
what 'drop 2' meant until
now! But Randy Vincent
has done a wonderful job in putting
together a very systematic
and comprehensive book
that
will be of great value
to all guitarists that want
to develop and improve
their chord melody playing. I might
just use some of these
tasty
voicings myself!” — Barry
Finnerty Randy
Vincent has drawn on his
decades of experience as
a guitarist and teacher
to create a very useful book
of chord voicings. The
material is well presented, and
the
wealth of material is placed
in context to allow the
serious student to absorb everything.
I found Randy's book really
helpful. I will use it
as
a reference myself, and
will recommend it highly to all
of my friends and students.” — John
Stowell Randy
Vincent presents the inner
workings of the 'drop 2'
voicing for guitar more
comprehensively than other publications
I
have encountered. All the
examples are written out
clearly and explained in
great detail. This book
is an invaluable aid to any
guitarist that desires
to look more deeply into the
study of jazz harmony with
an emphasis on the most
practical and commonly used voicing,
the 'drop 2.' It's clear
that Randy has put his
heart
and soul into this great
work, as it reflects so
much musical wisdom.” — Larry
Koonse Randy's
playing speaks for itself
and now this intelligent
and fascinating contribution
to guitar literature seals
his reputation as a fine
educator too.” — Mimi
Fox This
is a very unique book focused
on 4-note voicings for the
guitar. The chapters are
well organized with lots
of interesting voicing examples
of jazz standard melodies.
Especially the "tweaking" techniques
are inspiring. Also the attached
CDs are a great help. Recommended!!” — Satoshi
Inoue I
think the book is very
well thought-out and thorough.
It's everything you could
ever want to know about
drop 2 voicings. I especially
like the included CDs where
Randy plays the examples.
Thanks!” — Steve
Masakowski Great
book. I will be adding
this one as a required text for
my students.” — Vic
