am in mid 60's still play, scary , love it Brothers,

‘If you take off a day you might lose what you practised a day earlier’ What a slap-your-forehead moment! Beautiful wise statement - all the more powerful for being simple and obvious…

Im glad Jimmy still around. He's my new Joe Pass. I plan to collect all his videos.... for future learning.

In rehearsal with a guitarist friend, I was introduced to Jimmy Bruno. I'd felt I had known you, Jimmy, for at least the past 30 years! Not only is your music and approach so damn tasteful, but you've got a real human way with everything. I'm not sure how I missed you, but it's never too late. For all of you out there, Jimmy is THE MAN.

Hi Jimmy! I lived in Philly and saw you play in the 90s. Great memory and glad to see you out here helping people.

Thanks Jimmy your the guitar player we all want to be. What a wonderful person. 😇👍

Every Jimmy Bruno has a valuable lesson. Even his amp settings he speaks of are helpful to get good tone. Old school and still cool as fuck. 🏆💯

Jimmy Bruno's 5 shapes technique of mastering scales and modes changed my life. It gave an ear learner a place to understand from. Thank You Jimmy Bruno.

I could sit and talk guitar with this dude for an entire day! He's so down to earth...cool dude!✌

Jimmy, you just made me realize something at 3:00. I dig movement. Music gets more interesting when there's a sense of movement. Heck, even drums! When you add grace notes or let your stick bounce to a stop on the snare, it's movement. Thank you for teaching us all about feeling. It's a big part of what music is about.

These videos are essential for guitarists and musicians who want to expand on their craft. God Bless you Jimmy.

Jimmy’s a modest genius.

Thanks Jimmy your videos are essential for guitarists and musicians who want to expand their knowledge and creativity

This feels like therapy. Wish I had someone to spend time with him and ask some dumb questions.

if giant steps is a test, i give you 100% A+ cuz your version is the best iv heard. i listen to it often. your giant steps is just insane.

It's a real honor to spend time with you. Thanks Jimmy Bruno!

Hi Jimmy.....from Scotland.I attended a Howard Roberts Course many Years ago and he called the tune "All the Chords there are"....love your playing Jimmy. JB

i love you Jimmy. You're the man. thank you for clearing up on playing giant steps that way. that is really helpful not only for that tune but for others as well.

I'm a blues player through and through and didn't think I had an interest in Jazz, but this man is so well spoken, informative, and seems so humble... He definitely peaked my interest and I'm gonna check out more on this gentleman.

This is the only place on KZfaq to hear a Benedetto unplugged.

Basic yet monumentally imperative information.

Thank you, Jimmy. This is a very cool, straight-forward and informative session.

Good info, Thanks...

I just stumbled on your channel. We met years ago at a workshop in San Jose where I taught. We've also shared drummers in Billy Jones. Just wanted to say thanks, I'm enjoying learning from your experience. This is very cool and honest, no BS! Thanks.

Great Sery Jimmy. I am a very old friend of Jack Wilkins and learnt a lot from him in the end of the 90's. He came to Montreal 3 times for a week to help me with my playing and I went half a dozen times to his place in NYC.I offered him 2 instruments, the Tal Farlow he is still playing with and a very nice old L7C. I just realized it was almost 20 years ago and I do not believe he would recognize my playing though... I like your playing and I think this very of yours is great . JP

Love it man! Keep at it! This is exactly the type of content I love to see. It's like siting down for coffee and picking a legends brain! A good ole boy! Very inspiring! 🙏

I throughly enjoyed this. Thanks for sharing your insights.

Thanks for sharing your experience.

Glad to hear you, Jimmy!!!

Just finished watching the entire video. I enjoyed that tremendously, thanks. Will be tuning in again.

Thanks Jimmy. Very helpful and I liked the practice exercise you demonstrated. I appreciate the time you put in for the rest of us.

Just discovered your video, channel today. Very inspirational on so many levels. You've inspired me to get back into jazz studies, charts. Thank you. Subscribed.

Thank you Jimmy.

Brilliant Info, Thank you so much for sharing, I have learned so much already.

I am with you on All the Things You Are!

Jimmy Bruno,this is a great video,I hope there are more,God Bless.

Thanks Mr. Bruno. I studied with Ed Flanagan, Joe Federico and Dennis Sandole a hundred years ago. It is great to hear you put into simple terms concepts that can so easily fill the student's mind with confusion. I studied jazz with those teachers for seven years, but then came the siren call of flamenco music and I strayed from that training ground, but all those years of theory, ear training, improvisation have helped me immensely to crack the codes of another kind of difficult music. Also, my ability to take a phrase and expand it has also slowed my progress in gaining the fundamentals of flamenco; it was too easy for me to take a line and twist it into something else, so I had to really discipline myself to keep it simple and learn from the bottom up again. Thanks for sharing your lifetime of experience.

Thank you Sir, for sharing your knowledge,you are very helpful

Great job 👍, thanks for sharing, Greatest advice I ever received. 🎸, Thank you, CEG.🙏

Thank you for sharing!

What a beautiful individual. Off topic, but I love how Delighla stops after been asked politely.

Great job Jimmyl

Mr. Bruno you are a Legend! I like the "Martini" comparison btw...thank you for telling us your "secrets"!

Thanks Jimmy, you are a real master, I will always be grateful for his teachings, soon I return to JBGW.

wow, great stuff here! thanks for the honest and kind approach. cheers

Ok Jimmy! All the Things You Are it is. I've got that one in a songbook. Gonna start today. ♡

Very enjoyable video jimmy, I learned some new ideas. Thanks

love the lessons , thanks my friend

Great video. Picked up a lot of info. Cute pups.

This was great! One can spend a lot of time on KZfaq trying to figure out how to learn the guitar but the reality is that you won't learn the guitar on KZfaq. One must put in the long hours and the work. Practice, practice, practice and then practice some more.

I get your style of play I consider myself a beginner yet I am not going to give up.

Great! Thank you Jimmy

Thanks for answering my questions, Jimmy!

What an amazing guy!

Ohh... I am Taken Back N Time N College N His Jazz Improvisation Classes Of Which I'M Xtremely Proud Saying I Passed Because I Paid Attention..& The Thing Is; I Wasn't A Guitar Major...C.C.P 🎼🎼🎵🎵🎶🎶Performance Alum-Class Of 2002 Xtremely I Thank U Mr.Jimmy 4 Giving Me A Chance...U Saw N My Struggle The Voracious Hunger I HAD As Ur Student & U Played No Kinda Games Wit Me @ All!!

nice sir, just stomping in.

It was educational. I like your laid-back common sense approach. Good video. Your pooch added that special "percussion" sound that added spice to your message!

thanks for sharing your knowledge!

Love this, Jimmy!

"All the things you are", indeed!

Excellent video. A lot of super useful info here. 🙏

Lots of wisdom there, thanks!

hi jimmy , met you years ago in san jos'e at the jazz festival awesome thanks for the info !!!

Thanks for the education , really makes the difference , sharing years of experience , I love it , Alfred NYC /PR

I must say I've only just literally a couple days back rediscovered Jimmy Bruno (I first discovered and regularly enjoyed listening to him back in the early 90s). Now the rediscovery is more likely to become a religion, as long as Mr Bruno keeps uploading these treasure chest! A new but equally fascinating addition to his music is his verbal discourse and musical-social practical concepts. THANKS, Jimmy!!

Love the dog up stairs as well, he wants to be in the set too, very cutie !!!

Great lesson. I wish to one day come close to your knowledge of guitar

love the folks from 80, 9o years ago, so real ta me,

Here I am up,a Spanish mountain and I've never heard of you.....but....I'm still trying to learn jazz and all sorts of other music on my beat up old Yamaha acoustic....for 50 years!....so I really enjoyed your video and comments. Thanks very much.

Thank you sensei 🎉❤

My Goodness Jimmy! Look at all the thousands of people in this world whose lives are transformed by the touch of your hands!

This was a new channel for me, loved it, Regards from Oslo

Saw Jimmy a couple times in L A. What a great player!

Thank you Sir!

From starting to really learn both, Jazz Guitar, as in the way jazz guitarists like Jimmy Bruno play, is like slightly simplified classical guitar. They both merge chord voicings and arpeggios and melodic lines into the playing, instead of just doing a chord progression.

listen to this guy.... He's really cool !!! got his concord CD with Vignola and Alden, awesome one !!!

Fabulous and entertaining ❤

Thanks Bruno, i wish i could meet you in person, you too cool!

I like this man.

I play both piano, base and guitar.. it's good to do more than one.. I am a fan of everybody doing their part..I use the word synergy. The sum is greater than it's parts. Subscribed.. Having fun using IrealPro backing tracks.. just did fly me to the moon.. Sounded close to being in a studio.

Thank you....

these might be the best

love the man could play stuff

Keep it going.

very interesting , Thank you !

thank you!!

on 8:50 the exercise he does is: on a mjor scale (he is on the key of B) play: Tonic - maj 7 - root - maj3/min3 (depending on which scale degree the note is)

still love it!!

I love it ...👍

Love his dwogs

It's great to learn that way, and its to bad you haven't found pianist who plays enough music to know a little about guitar layout or tenor overtones. I'm interested in playing music behind you. As a young pianist I observed Jimi , 67 in Troy, NY. and also jammed with John a few times at Fenway dorms, where we got reprimanded For playing after hours. Have recorded and done Tours with Rydell . I think a short piano guitar interlude as an intro to your show would add greatly. I greatly enjoy your approach to learning Music.

Thank you fot the learnin’s

I just bought youre dvd “no nononsense jazz“, amazing tutorial. Have you heard of the jazz guitar player Michael Sagmeister? He is really great too

Are you that old??? I have a cd of yours live with Bobby Watson. Wow... Time flies. You should be known more widely. You're a master.

Jimmy your a gent ol'boy

Yaaaaayyy!!!! Excellent!!!!!

thanks

Great stuff, Jimmy... Keep it coming! :D

Larry Meyer 'Jazz Cat' would LOVE this.

good video, helpful for sure. Cute dog as well !!
