Hey I’m a new subscriber and I rarely ever comment but I had to let you know that the way you teach is so awesome I only have 3 years experience and I’m spending hours learning a couple of your videos the way you teach is almost like magic! Nothing is vague like other videos or confusing your really cool!
Great lesson and layout for your video. Your doing it right. Just found you tonight, learned this song and another few licks. Happy to see your in my area hello from Pinallas park
OK, I know I always leave the same rave-rave comment, but I gotta say this is the wildest, craziest, coolest thing you've done yet!! Always loved this song, had no clue about how to play it, and even tho I know it will take me a jillion years, your wonderful lesson here gives me a fighting chance!! Loved the break dancing, too-- spin on, brother!! 👍😅
i just have found your youtube channel . i like your style and your voice :o . i want to learn some jazz and i think that i came on the right sport . thank you for what you're doin' (sorry for my english). cheers
Excellent Damian! I "always" look forward to seeing you on You Tube. Damian, would it be fair to say that "most" (all?) of the standards can be played using triads in the style of Freddie Green?? I don't know how many (standards) lend themselves to the steady downbeat strokes like this song does. Perhaps some do and some don't. Any thoughts?? Many thanks!!
Hi Steve Thank you for stopping by the channel. I really appreciate it. :) A lot of Jazz Standards can be played in this style. Just off the type of my head I play songs like All of Me, After You've Gone", I'll See You in my Dreams & Minor Blues all in this style. :)
Very kind of you to reply Damian. You're super busy, so I truly appreciate it. Thanks for supplying me with the list of songs you mentioned. That is huge because it lets me know the kind of songs that fit into that style. I can build/expand the list from here. Thanks for all you do Damian!!
Cool lesson. But I m curious---- what kind of picks--- size, thickness, shape---- do you happen to use? I'm not sure if I've ever heard you mention it......
Hi hammill444 The guitar picks that I use are my own signature guitar picks. They are standard sized picks that are white celluloid. The pick gauge is medium(.71mm). I put one of my signature picks inside every DVD order. :)
Best teacher on the net Damian. Much appreciated!
This is likely your best jazz guitar song to date! 💪 You da man, I await your next! 😊🎼🎸🎵👍
Thank you very much :)
Still loving it!!! Great reference bc sometimes I forget. Green Dolphin Street?? Thanks again!!

Saw Ella sing this live at the Kennedy Center in the '80s with the Basie band. Brilliant. What gauge strings are you using? Thanks!
i just saw that one, Ella was pure magic
Thanks:)
Is there an acoustic archtop guitar you would recommend at budget, median, and high price? Thanks
