I liked this video, I guess most of us know by now that guide tones and approach notes are the key but sometimes it is hard to put into practice. Darren Lloyd´s channel named Jazz Etudes has the same approach and many examples. I do not mean to criticize you in any way, I have bought stuff from you and it helped me a lot. Thumbs up.
I was just about to leave for a gig when I started listening to this post, and one of the tunes on my playlist was "Autumn Leaves" and I am not yet comfortable really emphasizing the chord tones. So when I heard tip #1, I thought, "Oh no! This tune is not going to go over well!" I listened to the rest pf this post after the gig, which actually went well. On "Autumn Leaves" because I am really familiar with the melody and have a feel for playing lines that embellish it my improv came out OK and areas to work on. All of the tips are great
@@LearnjazzstandardsI’d love to join your inner circle but honestly, I don’t think I’m ready. I’m new to the guitar and although I take your meaning in “soloing over the same song for half an hour won’t make you better” I think I’m at such a low level that it’s where I need to start. I make really simple mistakes that I can fix on my own with practice (like hitting a G natural in an E7 chord) and I’m working through your Jazz Standards Playbook which I only just now feel ready for. One day. :) 🎸
All really valid points here, and very well presented
Really enjoyed this Brent - I really like the way you break down the concepts here. So similar to how we teach over at Sax School. Love these videos!
Thanks! Fans of Sax School over here!
can you list all your background music in this video? I heard so much bangers and I want to play them :D

Thanks! I'm glad the gig went well.
Great.
Amateurish - sorry I'm a Virgo.
Brent, Hello from Kansas City, Missouri. Outstanding Video. That Guitar Tone is what I like to call a Lobster Dipped In Butter Tone. Thanks.
Thanks man!
Very well done
Thank you very much!
