Dolphin Dance - Herbie Hancock (Jazz Guitar Chord Melody)

Dolphin Dance - Herbie Hancock (Jazz Guitar Chord Melody)

from the 1965 Herbie Hancock album "Maiden Voyage" released on Blue Note Records, "Dolphin Dance" is one of my favorite Hancock compositions. It is a perfect balance of functional and modal harmony, and has taught me a lot about space, voice leading, and melody.

I am using a 2019 Roger Borys B120 Deluxe that was custom built for me by Roger. He did an amazing job. D'Addario EJ21 (12-52) Strings. Speaker is an Eminence "lil' buddy" (Hemp coned speaker). The mic is the industry standard Royer r121 run into a Cloud Cl-1 Cloudlifter to boost the signal, Apogee Duet interface into a iMac using Logic proX. Video is shot with an Iphone X (4k) and synced in Logic. Then video is edited in iMovie (fades in and out), exported in 4k and uploaded to Youtube.
