這份練習主要是針對 Freddy Green style 的伴奏方式設計，也就是早期 swing 樂團裡常見的節奏吉他手法。Freddy Green 是 Count Basie 樂團的吉他手，他的彈法看似簡單，實際上非常注重節奏感與聲音的乾淨俐落。
本次練習的目標
- 對拍練習：請搭配節拍器，嘗試對齊在 1、3 拍（傳統 swing 的聽感），以及 2、4 拍（現代 jazz 常見的 backbeat 感覺）。
- 控制和聲：伴奏時只壓 Root、3rd、7th 這三個音，讓和聲聽起來清晰、乾淨。
- 注意節奏與聲音的控制，保持每一拍穩定、內聚、有律動感。
Freddy Green 的風格強調節奏遠大於和聲的華麗度，因此音色與 groove 是這類練習的關鍵。如果你能練到節拍器一打下去就穩穩進拍，聲音簡潔又有重量，那你已經邁出很扎實的一步。
練習建議
搭配的 PDF TAB 檔案，請見附件。練習可以與 Part 1（In-Two Bass Line）交替進行，一週內重複練習會慢慢感覺到節奏感與聽力的提升。

Jazz Guitar Practice | All of Me Part 2: Freddy Green Comping Training
This practice focuses on the Freddy Green style comping technique, a common rhythmic guitar approach in early swing bands. Freddy Green, the guitarist of the Count Basie Orchestra, had a deceptively simple style that emphasized rhythm and clean, precise sound.
Goals of This Practice
- Timing Practice: Use a metronome to align with beats 1 and 3 (traditional swing feel) or beats 2 and 4 (modern jazz backbeat feel).
- Chord Voicing Control: Focus on playing only the Root, 3rd, and 7th notes to keep the harmony clear and clean.
- Rhythm and Sound Control: Maintain steady, cohesive, and groovy beats with each stroke.
Freddy Green’s style prioritizes rhythm over harmonic complexity, making tone and groove the key elements of this practice. If you can lock into the metronome with a steady beat and produce a clean, weighted sound, you’ve taken a solid step forward.
Practice Tips
The accompanying PDF TAB file is available in the attachment. You can alternate this practice with Part 1 (In-Two Bass Line). Repeating the exercises over a week will gradually improve your sense of rhythm and ear training.
