If you want other backing tracks to be published, please give me your suggestions :-)

Sara Smile de Hall&Oates?

[@SecretSauce8]

you know, it would be nice to have just part A of Autumn Leaves in key of concert C in a latin (maybe bossa) groove.

How can I buy this backing sir?

[@adimagal4318]

Great track, thank you!

[@TDashLIVE]

This backing track has helped me with my improvisation skills a lot. The perfect tempo and swing make it easy to work on improvisation.

[@BernieHolland-w4l]

Just spent an hour improvising over your backing tracks - how quick time passes when you enjoy yourself - thanks

[@Tikipalooza66]

Playing sax over this is money, thanks for giving me something groovy to jam over.

[@bobibobio1999]

For those who want to jazz up their progression... Take these (tritone) substitutions and put them in your chord vocabulary: 1) Instead of playing C7, try F#13 (resolving the 13 into the 5) 2) Instead of playing E7, try A#13 (resolving the 13 into the 5) OR E7#9 Also... The original chord in bar 15 is Am with a b7. Hope this helps!

[@belzebongnight9521]

Really cool

[@veiled-kp6nj]

you can use c9 too

[@MrJoeyBoombotz]

I question whether or not the people making comments criticizing the triplet drum fills, 'hi-hat slurring' are even musicians. It's laughable. It would be almost impossible for anyone playing along with this track to avoid them completely. Musicians remind each other, spur each other on and give the rest license to expand with their harmonic and rhythmic phrasing/interpretations. The purpose of a track like this is to use rhythmic phasing peculiar to this hip hop type beat with appropriate harmonic content. I 've been unhappy with all my efforts to 'meld' with this track even though I've been playing this song for 50 years since it first came out with both R&B and Jazz chord changes. I can 'jam' to it, but not in the way I would like to. So it is a pop R&B 60s hit, reharmonized in a Jazz mode with added and changed 2-5s, with a hip-hop beat and tempo and I love it. I just can't groove with it, sadly. It is not complicated harmonically or in any other way. The syncopated funky guitar groove along with the drums reinforcing with triplets twice during the sequence keeping it grounded is delicious. Too much jazz harmony following the chords and it sounds weak, too much blues harmony and phasing it is boring.I have never been this vexed with such a simple problem, with a simple tune, especially in such a common key. I would love to hear a few good solos done over this track. It is a great track worthy of a really good solo, needing very tasteful harmonic and Jazz/Blues rhythmic feel, but I'll bet they would be hard to find.

[@DPineda121]

WORD. check out Tomo Fujita jamming over this song

[@bluespig1]

I would a prefer an open hat instead of the -triplet pattern but I am a drummer and a jazz blues pianist. Love a good backing track and appreciate the effort. Shame that anything musical brings negative attention so if your about to show us all how immature and small minded you are, think how you come off instead.

[@richardmartija1991]

This backing track is rubbish

[@mkgb972]

Guitare Improvisation D'accord merci beaucoup !

[@skelppie]

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm fairly certain that the first E7 on the final bar is actually ( Dsus4/E - Aaug/E )

[@guitareimprovisation]

Hi ! In the original version ? In this audio ?

[@skelppie]

@@guitareimprovisation Just in the audio of this video. I can hear it

[@asukalangleysoryu6695]

@@Nico-xg8sn thx a lot!

[@jeffblum9587]

What is F Delta cord and B circle with the line thru it cord? Thanks.

[@seanpotts5252]

+Jeff Blum F delta = F Major 7 (1-3-5-7) and B with the line and circle = B Half Diminished AKA Bminor7b5 (1-b3-b5-b7)

Where are the chord shape so I can learn the chords?

[@EctInc]

To help you with your search... Those 7th chords are everywhere. The triangle one is a major 7, Fmaj7. The circle with a line through it is half-diminished. Have fun with it

nice, but some weird drum breaks going on (from E7 to Am7 and from Bb7 to Bm7).

[@wasteyelo1]

Jasper Kuper I agree. If the drummer kept slurring on the hi hat like that, they'd get the sack. 😃 I lick the comping though and it's nice at this tempo.

[@guitareimprovisation]

It's a triplet, quiet common in this style of groove. I understand it can be tricky but I like it, it adds some flavour to the groove.

[@wasteyelo1]

Guitare Improvisation Please don't get me wrong, I was making a crass joke. I've been jamming to for an hour and I haven't sacked him yet. 😊

[@TheSteamyG]

If its weird then its weird awesome not weird weird

[@mariomartinic1816]

Little Jay not weird just a triplet on 4😂

[@Oli121]

i found the drum break also extremely cheesy and groove killing, better to let it out or make it more laid back - my opinion

[@Dooality]

What's going on with that Bm chord? Something is up. I'm not the best at hearing stuff but I swear there's a C# in there.

[@guitareimprovisation]

Yes, Bm7 9 ! Adding notes to a chord is very common and doesn't necessarily have to be written :-)

[@piercenn6353]

That triplet thing break think kinda ruins the groove for me

[@fabiofreitas1402]

some of drums fills doesnt sound good... 0.37
