Thanks for mentioning my channel Mikko! Beautiful lesson. Also, so glad you mentioned Labyrinth of Limitations. He's my favorite guitar player right now. He deserves a listen to for sure.

[@Mikkokosmos]

Thanks. Yes and I love that he is playing a classical guitar.

[@AnthonyShaw-ty9pi]

Wow!! Fantastic lesson Mikko!! Thanks for breaking it down like that. Its more understandable. 👍😀👍

Fine work here. Just wanted to add 2 cents of history of these progressions. I've Got Rhythm by Gershwin was released in 1930, but Fats Whaller's Aint Misbehavin' and Handful of Keys were both released in 1929, with the A section of Aint Misbehavin' matching the A section of I've Got Rhythm and the B section of Handful of Keys matching the B section. Further, Whaller learned pretty much everything from James P. Johnson, who wrote The Charleston and Carolina Shout (which Duke Ellington said was, "The most solid foundation). Carolina shout was 1921 and The Charleston was 1924. One key element of the progression goes back to Scott Joplin's Rags, most famous being Maple Leaf Rag from 1899, with almost all of them containing that classic turn-around. Another key element can be traced back at least to Chopin in the 1830s. Check out his Nocturne, Op. 9 No. 3, which essentially starts with the classic blues ending progression. And has anyone else considered that Beethoven's Ode to Joy contains many variations and inspirations for the blues turn around? Ok, that was more like 4 cents of history. Have a nice day!

This may be a little out of context but a tonic [Bb) dim is closely related to an A7. Using the “family of dominants”, A7 equates to C7. Therefore, when applying the tonic dim concept, one could think of it as a secondary dominant. Basically V ing the V7 chord. What do you think?

[@LokeyeMC]

That matches my understanding, that the biii diminished is thought of as V ing the V7 chord.

Been trying off & on for abt 40 years, & this is def the best Rhythm Changes lesson I’ve ever seen. Many thanks

I'm glad to see René Guénon on your shelf! He's become one of my favorite thinkers.

[@Mikkokosmos]

Just ordered more of his books

[@Jdonam]

You turn out to be among a few YT teachers I keep coming back. If only to abdsorb some of this impressively solid playing of yours.

[@callouscallus]

I spent a lot of time with this today. There's a lot to unpack here.

[@Mikkokosmos]

Glad you find the information useful

[@critical9999]

The great Dr. Barry Harris. Amazing bud... Bird the founder.. and Evans to the grand Mangoré..

[@PhilWilkinsonMusic]

Sounds Killing Mikko. Thanks for the mention!

[@Mikkokosmos]

Thanks so does the backing tracks 😎👍

@@Mikkokosmos really happy you like them 😊🙏🏼

[@oldreddragon1579]

I got that book and am still working on it as each bit keeps expanding. I didn't understand this idea properly so Thanks.

[@frankvaleron]

Really interesting lesson, I'm always intrigued by different approaches to rhythm changes. The Barry Harris stuff to me is both fascinating and sometimes confusing!

[@mannoplanet]

Thanks!

[@Mikkokosmos]

Thank you

[@steveburchfield5576]

Thanks Mikko for the very useful information !!!

[@Mikkokosmos]

Glad you like it 😀👍

[@johnrothfield6126]

I think of rhythm changes as a mode/raga/melody (over a tonic drone)... The tonic diminished adds the b3 and b5 which are 'blue notes'. Rhythm changes is like the blues or Raga in that . Harmonically static (doesn't modulate to different keys).

[@anomynousguitarist5950]

Super useful stuff Mikko, thanks! It really helps me make sense of Barry Harrises fundamental ideas. Using the diminshed scale to get that blues feeling... damn!

[@icecreamforcrowhurst]

Nice sound! Do you use a POG pedal?

[@peteranthony2933]

Thank you Mikko for your contributions on youtube. I'm trying to figure out how you are getting that sound. Are you using a Electro-Harmonix Pog pedal? Hopefully, you'll see this post. Inquiring mind would love to know. And, a brilliant study on rhythm changes.

[@Mikkokosmos]

Yes it's the Pog2

[@peteranthony2933]

@@Mikkokosmos Thank you for your quick response. Are you using any other effects?

Hey，mikko.Have you ever tried the book talk jazz,written by roni ben-hur .Seems like a real great about Barry Harris method.

[@Mikkokosmos]

no but people have mentioned his books before I need to check it out

[@sin77777]

@@Mikkokosmos I think its comprehensive in a detail way.But the idea have been covered by these great guy in youtube

[@pickinstone]

@@sin77777 Especially since Roni Ben-Hur was Barry Harris's goto guitarist for a WHILE--worth exploring the book. Roni was also Chris Park's first jazz guitar teacher, before getting introduced to Barry Harris. Roni's a damn good teacher who's helped me make sense of the Barry Harris pedagogy, worth checking out anything he's published.

[@sin77777]

@@pickinstone Have you check the book?I know the context but cant get a copy in China.I try to email roni ask him about making a new e-book version.

[@oldreddragon1579]

Intro reminds me of Charlie Christian.

[@l.m.372]

Could you use these movements over the 1625 also over a standard turnaround in a blues or a standard?

[@Mikkokosmos]

I don't see why not 😎

[@EastmanD]

@7:50 he mentions someone "totally playing this..". Can't make out the name....anyone understand him who he's mentioning ?
