Hey RZ, love the lesson however at the start of the lesson, before you break down Mikes solos. You display several 2-5-1 chord phrase changes pretty quick. I was hoping you captured that on paper alas it wasn’t. Have you now or in the future compiled such a lesson and captured in ink and lens ? It would be most helpful as chord progressions and phrasing is meat of the dish.
That’s the chord melody to Giant Steps. I hope to do a chord melody lesson for that soon. Meanwhile, I suggest you check out the “Countdown” lesson which is related.
Nice work. Very clear.
Very informative. Love the way you explain and make learning so much easier.
Thanks Jim!
