There is <a href=\"http:\/\/chickcorea.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Barry Harris <\/a>and Bob Reynolds; Rick Beato, <a href=\"https:\/\/martintaylor.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Martin Taylor<\/a>.All amazing artists but let&#8217;s focus on one very briefly.<\/p>\n<p>Of that list I would like to introduce <a href=\"http:\/\/mattwarnockguitar.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Matt Warnock<\/a>, and his life through his amazing jazz guitar teaching online and through videos &#8211; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/user\/MattWarnockGuitar\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Youtube channel here<\/a>. One seriously hard working musician, who inspires.<\/p>\n<p>Dr. Matt Warnock is one of the dudes that motivates through his dissemination of knowledge &#8211; almost all of it free!!. So, and apologies here Matt (word limits and all that), in a nutshell: He is an alumni of Mcgill University, with a PhD in Jazz from University of Illinois and he has played guitar with a host of top flight musicians; and most importantly he also cares enough to share his life and knowledge in a variety of ways: from articles in Guitar World (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.guitarworld.com\/tags\/matt-warnock\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>) to a lessons for Fundamental Changes (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.fundamental-changes.com\/teacher\/matt-warnock\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>) and examining for the Registry of Guitar Tutors (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.rgt.org\/blog\/rgt-guitar-teacher-matt-warnock-interview\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">here<\/a>).<\/p>\n<p>So below are my top three videos, and this was a tough choice as no way have I seen all of them, but of the ones I have watched these are worth sharing. In no particular order other than what I can see on YouTube:<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Miles Davis inspired lick<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/ldP0P-24Oek\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/ldP0P-24Oek<\/a><\/p>\n<p>2. Bass lines on guitar (not just Bach does it!).<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/v3TQOBQG4R0\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/v3TQOBQG4R0<\/a><\/p>\n<p>3. Stella By Starlight solo guitar<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/youtu.be\/LuKis-gnDBY\">https:\/\/youtu.be\/LuKis-gnDBY<\/a><\/p>\n<p>So hopefully this little side trip gives you some insight and some inspiration for getting in and playing music, not just guitar!<\/p>\n<p>Want more?
