Tim, you are one of them solid jazz educators. I know at times YT views and algorithms might take you down a lil bit but what you're doing is being appreciated by a lot of going-to-be pianists, the community and even newbies. Keep doing what u doin man! VERY HIGH QUALITY!

thanks for be here again.

So clear ! Nobody now has an excuse not to become a good jazzman ...

I’m not a vibes player but love your playing and your lessons, they’re all very well structured and progressive but also always musical and enjoyable.

Great lessons! Many thanks!

I’m so thankful for this channel

You just blew my mind! Thank you

Tim, thanks for the great videos you are doing on your channel!

This video is super helpful for just improving soloing at any song. It shows what you should look for and what to try out next time you play a song. You should do this for more songs!

❤gracias por esto

sax player here 🥸 and yo I never rlly realized how good just a blues scale could sound on this bahhahaha im over here stressing about my altered scales and stuff but man you killed this with just that one scale my goodness!!

That's great !!

Thanks for the upload

The legend is back!

Love these lessons and how you break it down and the 5 levels

Good lesson Tim.

Really nice. Always informative. Always musical.

Great playing!...........

You are awesome!! Thank you very much!

Great video! Wonderful content, amazing narrative and a very educative material!! Thank you very much, Tim!!

Really grateful for your Chanel

Great lesson. thanks for share this

Good no nonsense advice, on how to improvise melodic rhythms over this timeless jazz classic. Much appreciated.

A very nice video again - thanks once more!

Great educational video!!!! You inspired me a lot🙂

Woot! Welcome back. I love all you're videos but the 'Levels' ones are my favourite. Just awesome, really brings out the strategic nature of improvistion.

that's pretty cool! ( and hard to think

Thank you for being one of the few that analyzes Autumn Leaves in MINOR! Too many people look at this as a tune that is in major and modulates to the relative minor. Keep it in minor! Also, this video is a great prescription for CST-osis. Symptoms of Chord Scale Theory-osis include: playing disconnected lines, ignoring the melody, and excessive urination from drinking too much from the Berklee fountain. I see your video as layers/steps to improvisation instead of levels of expertise. Too many start with chord tones, I like the idea of starting with Gminor (or G pentatonic) and laying in everything else as you go deeper into the tune. Improvising is like cooking. You gotta start with garlic and olive oil in your improvisation, than layer in the veggies (and meat, if needed) and THEN spice it up. Same with improvisation, you gotta play in layers--for what it's worth. Anyway, Tim, I emailed you at your business email. We both grew up in the same state, gotta love the fall season over there! Let me know if you got my email.

The last time I commented I thought he was gonna play "Got a Match" by Chick Correa but Autumn leaves is cool

you deserve a lot more subscribers

Great video. I feel it would be even better if there were time codes inserted for the different topics/chapters, so we could go right to them without having to scrub the time line for them... Once again, it's a great video. Very helpful and packed full of useful information...

Been missing your videos. Great to see you back. Question: On your recent videos you play with 2 mallets instead of 4. Is there a reason why?

Good old Eric Clapton should watch this. He might learn how to spice up his G minor pentatonic licks, though since he's got £300 million in the bank, I wouldn't have though he'd be that motivated...

what's the intro tune?

so are you saying Eric Clapton is level 1?

What is name this music instrument?

The face you make in these thumb nails do not prepare me for how hard you shred on these songs
