Jimmy is such a character. I've been in a master class with him and I think he flamed me once on the internet, but he is definitely his own person, and his playing reflects that. Nice to see him so relaxed in this interview. Thanks.
The phrasing from Black greats is not based on European music! Jimmy knows that but like most he cant get rid of that! He is good player! He analyzed a clip I recorded and sent to him and gave it 5 stars. He mentioned the importance of his Black interactions!
Countdown to Big Jersey Guitar Camp in 2 weeks, I can’t wait! I was trained in Classical Guitar and teach it-I have tried to use a pick but haven’t committed to it.
Sounds like a fun time. Playing with a pick opens up a plethora of new sound options. Thanks for watching and for your input! Please feel free to Like, Share and Subscribe to our channel.
I love this channel! . . ..Ive listened to a lot of JImmys playing & watched and watched his youtube channel more recently , usually with the video slowed down when he plays somehting so i can learn a few thigns from the master . Also been a student on his education website at point in my playing too! . Man the guy sure can play . could listen to his storys of a life of music all night long too!. ya know , how about trying to see if Biréli Lagrène would come on your pod cast?. hes another Awesome Improvisational talent too!

Thanks for the post. Always entertaining to hear from Jimmy. I love all the players he mentioned. I'm always blown away by how efficient his left hand is. Never does it flail at all, as if it's connected to the fretboard. Re: Grant Green, it was the ex-wife of his son (not the one who plays guitar) who wrote the biography on him in the early 2000s. She followed it up with a documentary that was released just a few years ago. It's either on here or Vimeo. Grant Green must've had the most recognizable tone of anyone. It's like a staccato siren. A note and you know it's him.
Jimmy makes it understandable. It’s not Sal Salvatore’s single string studies. That was tough. Too tough in the beginning. The late Frank Dawson from Chicago taught me. Another great unknown

The classical music influence is easily noticed in Jimmy's playing. What a unique jazz player he is.
