Lesson transcript:
Music Lesson: Jack MacDuff's "Memphis in June"
So we're going to look at another Jack MacDuff tune, his version of quite a well-known tune called "Memphis in June."
Overview
- It's a really pretty, very minimal, and restrained melody.
- It has a classic sort of jazz tone in your right hand.
- There's going to be some comping underneath where the horn solo is, and some backing in your left hand underneath the melody.
Jack's Solo
We'll also have a look at the solo that Jack plays himself, which is very, very sweet and very effective.
And, yeah, here we go.
Intro
The intro has a very much standalone tone, which is quite interesting.
