How to Swing and how to work on your swing feel. Swing feel is the elusive part of Jazz Phrasing that we can't really describe and tell you how to work on. Most of the time it is hard to understand and work on. In this video I am going over how to hear, practice and understand different types of swing feel and use this to improve your playing.

In the video I am referencing some recordings by Jazz Guitarists that you can check out as examples of different types of swing feel:

Joe Pass Stompin at the Savoy:    • Joe Pass  Stompin' At The Savoy  

Pat Martino    • Pat Martino "Just Friends"  

Wes Montgomery    • Video
