Chordplay - The Chords Of Pat Metheny

Hey everyone! Here's the next episode of Chordplay with The Chords Of Pat Metheny. I've had a ton of requests to feature some of Pat Metheny's timeless and inspiring music, and while it took me a while to wrap my head around how to put this lesson together - Pat's released 55 albums in his career(!) - I decided to just stick with some of my favorites from his early albums. This music really helped me investigate jazz music for the first time, back when I was in college and exploring different styles of music. Anyway, there's some great stuff hiding here - so let's dive in!

This lesson revolves around a few chord-based and rhythm guitar parts pulled from two classic Pat Metheny albums - his debut album Bright Size Life from 1976 and Pat Metheny Group from a few years later. The chord-focused sections of songs in this lesson includes select parts from Unity Village, Bright Size Life, Uniquity Road, Phase Dance, and more!

Needless to say, if you're a viewer that requested some of Pat Metheny's music, a viewer that asked for "more jazz," a player wanting to unlock some interesting/inspiring chord-based ideas from a master of jazz music, someone looking for some new chord ideas to stick in their bag of tricks, or maybe you're just curious what all the fuss is about - this lesson is totally for you!
