So here's a thing I did. Shaky vox, but jazz chords! Buy my 12-song digital album, only $4.97: http://bit.ly/1wpCVXh

  • Wish I could still do it well enuff to do miss piggy got back .but you got to really practice to rap like Kermit d frog.
  • Mr. C: I've been known to go Kermit on this one myself...we played this song in 8th grade jazz band (I was on bass) and there was one kid I used to crack up all the time by impersonating the frog's version.

  • That is nice, Gus.  I am not a big jazz fan, but sure like this.

  • Have to try that I do a mean Kermit d frog .
  • Tuning is A-D-G-B (middle four strings of standard 6-string tuning). Four strings definitely makes the jazz chords happen because it allows you to drop in those dominant and major seventh tones. I've tried a few times over the years to learn jazz "for real," but it never seems to happen...the huge four-note voicings here? It turns out you don't really PLAY those in actual jazz contexts. Too much competition with the piano or something. You have to play all these wacky inversions. Thanks for checking it out!

  • Enjoyed it! What is the tuning? Do you play 4 strings to get the jazz chords?
