I love the break down of 3 levels of skill. Level 3 makes more sense when you look at what the first 2 levels entail. It gives you a clear sense of progression.

Yes!

Out of all of the ways I have had teachers approach imrpov, this has BY FAR been the most influential on my playing. Thanks

Great video. I have been playing jazz for years, but often get intimidated by the, for lack of a better word, Middle-East inspired tunes (like this and Caravan) that have become associated with altered scales and more advanced theory. Your tutorial broke things down in an approachable way that I will try tonight at my gig. I also enjoyed your presentation: superimposing notes and scales over video for clarity. Nice work, excellent communication skills, Tim!

Thanks - FYI Caravan is more about harmonic minor than altered dominant.

Maaan, this is one of the best lessons of what scales to play with chords I’ve learned yet!! Thanks so much for sharing!! 😎👍

Exceptional teaching. I'm a classically trained percussionist with a set of vibes.. This is helping me get my jazz footing.

These videos are brilliant

I loved your lesson and your method. Respectful to the music and to the musicians who want to learn it.

This video is really helpful, recently I started to hang out with a jazzist saxophonist and he asked me to play a bass solo for this tune and I always tend to use pentatonics because my jazz language is still low. Now I have a whole variety of sounds ideas and licks

I love these videos so much!

That is so well done! Thank you!

Very helpful lesson as always!

Another awesome video, keep 'em coming

Absolutely loved this man, great video.

Awesome, thank you! Very clear and so helpful to outline 3 levels! Great video, love it!

Great video! Awesome lesson Tim ...plenty of material very useful for the saxophonist player that I'm. Thanks a lot! You got a new subscriber

the eb is a tri tone off the dom7 and works with A alt I didn't see that at first These are some really GREAT sequencing concepts .

@TimCollinsVibes

Yes exactly - the Eb is a tritone sub of A7.. it’s basically V-i over and over.

@TimCollinsVibes Thanks Tim. I am liking the approach concepts visual sequencing on Vibe board even though my primary instrument is guitar . Didn't take long to realize the upper row is like black keys on the piano

No respect.

Tim ima guitar player and this is the best anyone has ever approached this - I have people telling me play a Bbmaj scale to the Dm and a Bmaj scale to the Eb7 . A lot of people just play the solo in Dm with some D harmonic minor stuff . I love the way you play it and I notice that I have been playing gutiar so long and you just made the simple blues scale sound better than i ever could and its like should I just quit now ?

Hehe don’t quit :) thank you for the compliments- I’m glad you enjoyed the video!

The A7alt scale has the same notes like the Bb melodic minor scale?!?!? Wow!!! That blows my mind!!! 😅 Thanks a lot! You got a new subscriber 😊👍

wow~

I like the way the level 2 bridge is reminiscent of Blue Bossa..

Shazam * level 1 * : Is Night in Tunisia Also Shazam * level 2 * : Is Blue Bossa

Amazing class, I liked how you divided musical phrases for the part A in every 2 measures, I think u could talk a little bit about that next time

Soy saxofonista, pero me aporta mucho este vídeo. Gracias

I can’t go back to school. I haven’t touched a vibe since like March. But we move. I Lo-key forgot how to read music. Yoo and thx also because last year I was rated top 20 jazz vibraphonist in the state of GA

So, I'm a beginning jazz guitar player. Even though I think I was born to be a crappy vibes player, I'm a crappy guitar player. Anywho, I've listened to so many KZread videos on how to solo and this was by far one of if not the best. Not sure why, it just really resonated will you be doing more of these? Would you like some song suggestions?
