That's exactly how I feel when a Rhythm Changes is called and some wise guy just put The Flintstones on our set list. This is well timed for me. Thank you.

Monk played the RC chorus as just 'Bb' and did most of his work in the bridge... The head to Oleo shows that there is nothing to be scared about, especially after George Benson 'plays the blues over RC'...love your positive vibe and derring-do ... go man !

I actually did have a gig last night and three RC tunes were in the setlist. This video helped me play melodic solos over the changes. Thank you so much and I'm looking forward to the bridge!

Hey Nick, I'm working on Rhythm Changes now and I've had some success using just a diatonic major scale over the A sections but your scale has a different color to it and though I'm already familiar with it, I haven't reached your level of expression with it. When I grab my horn later I'll play along. Thanks for this one!

Nick! Great video! I've also noticed that de minor pentatonic scale works fine on the 6th bar, over the IV and the #IVº chord. Just like a blues. And if play some arpegios over it will sound more fancy. Thanks for the this great tip!

Nick, when you were trading, why wasn't A section 8 bars long?

Great stuff! The last jam session I went to we DID play Oleo at some ridiculous tempo. No idea what I played during my solo. So if you add the Db you are basically playing a G blues scale, correct?

I love that logic. Good point. Mark Levine in the Jazz Theory Book somewhere writes out a scale with an F# in it. He writes, whatever you want to call it, it is still a G major. Playing musical scrabble makes you a better player!
