Thanks to all of you guys using this to boost your jazz playing skills!!! I now also have TAB & standard notation for the intro solo, if you'd like some more "words" in your jazz vocabulary → bit.ly/2p5iKnD And there's TAB for the comping as well → bit.ly/2H9z4wh AND scale maps → bit.ly/2KNlSvW HAPPY JAMMING and thanks for the support!

Quist thank you for sharing bro. the tracking is really cool 😎 man, specially the way you play the 2-5-1, on C Major. I'm telling you bro. you're sound great, I mean like a professional. keep up the good work. I just got interested in playing jazz 2-years ago, but this year I learned a few jazz guitar chords. Just passing time I'm 73 years, but away love the jazz music since I was very young

I'm old...I've been playing guitar for 30 years. I have bad arthritis and about 3 months ago I fell over a wall onto a two foot slab of concrete. I broke my right wrist badly and crushed thye ball that holds your arm in the socket at the shoulder. I'm ready to go...clean bill of health. First and foremost I am a drummer, singer, songwriter. I have excellent fretboard knowledge and theory. Circle of 5th etc. so why am I doing this considering your post is three years old. I want to be a better guitar player...unlearn bad habits. C D E F G A Bdim C w w h w w w h 1st 3rd and the 5th make a C chord. C,E,G I really know stuff but I'm slow...I need to learn to compensate.

The best way to learn to improvise this type of stuff is 1) create a line , stolen or inspired mostly from a hero you love, who touches your heart and soul.For me me, it Clint Strong. 2) learn the line slowly, in one position. By learning, this means repeating it perhaps a couple of hundred times. Stop whenever your hand hurts!! 3)resist the temptation to practice anything else, just focus on this one thing, for hours, days ,weeks, however long it takes to achieve total mastery over this one lick. 4) repeat over the backing track, and as it burns into your subconcious, watch in awe how you'll naturally add little of your own decorations and variations of rythm onto the line. 5) repeat the process, for the exact same line, in as many positions on the neck as possible, at least half a dozen. Don't put a time frame on your practice, just focus on this one thing, and enjoy it, loose yourself in the music. If you practice too many different things, you'll master nothing, instread focus on mastering one thing, and your playing will elavate.

Dude I cannot even describe how helpful this is to me. I am a jazz piano player, and often times I can't find anything to practice with because everything in Jazz seems to have piano in it and I cant focus on what I'm playing compared to them. This is a common 2-5-1 chord progression and it helps me brainstorm stuff to do for soloing, and I can actually hear my own piano chords so that is making me a much better player. Thanks so much!

I love it, I can play random notes over the top and it sounds like Jazz

trestresbrel true. Making the VI into a 7th chord is a common thing in jazz, as you will see it leads towards the IIm that way (Dm7) in an even stronger way... the "expensive" word for it is Secondary Dominant.... I hope that helps :)

Really nice backing track, I'm learning a lot by practicing on this! And thank you for the tip of using G diminished on the dominant, it gets a very interesting colour... but why does it exactly work?

That was the jazziest jam ive had so far

after playing along to many of your 2-5-1 backing tracks i'm Finally learning how to tie in altered licks on the 5 chord to sound hip. after playing relentlessly to the thos 30 minue all 12 key backing im finally getting the jazz Sound that ive been desperately reaching for. Much thanks to you as you have the nicest sounding backing tracks out there. Was wondering if you'd be so kind as to consider doing a backing track with a 2-5-1 and a bridge or other nice vamp to break it up and bring it back and forth. I think it would help us learn to how to transition fluidly from out 2-5-1 to other parts especially when we wanna learn how to flow through a whole standard like a pro. thanks again for all your work you're the best

You're intro is really helped me improving my scales, thx dude. Also im a beginner and i wanna be a musician and build my own youtube channel, but i only post 2 of my videos and it got 200 views!! Also i just wanna say that you're videos are what improving me and making me closer to be a real musician dude thx!!
