There is an abundance of Pat Martino lesson material to be found on the internet. This lesson is not about me presenting Pat's material in the way that he did, rather, I am showing you how I adapted his methods into my playing. My goal when I began to understand Pat's method of re-envisioning harmony, was to be able to apply it to my improvising and most importantly, tunes. Those of you who have know me for a while will no doubt recognize moments that led me to create concepts of my own, such as the "secret jazz chord". I think you will find this lesson compelling and eye opening and easy to absorb. So spend an hour with me as I present you my method of celebrating one of the most important figures in the history of jazz guitar.
