Jazz+ Posted September 14, 2016 Share Posted September 14, 2016 Some folks asked about this. I play these same types of left hand styles. They get switched around and blended at free will throughout the tunes. It helps keep it exciting unlike most jazz pianists which can be rather boring. Maybe you can identify the different types he employs and then train on these left hand skills.

Jazz+ Posted September 14, 2016 Author Share Posted September 14, 2016 Some of the boggie left hands and syncopation routines. These are easier than you might expect. (By the way, I've transcribed and memorized these 3 youtubes and it's fun stuff for me, I like how it enables to me to always be changing it up.

J_tour Posted September 16, 2016 Share Posted September 16, 2016 I think I know what the six styles are. Shuffle, walk, stride, ostinato, fifths, none, and parallel octaves. That's seven, but that's still correct, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
