Jimmy Bruno Throwback Thursday From the MI Vault 7/21/05

[@tonybmusic1166]

Jimmy’s a living national jazz treasure.

[@joshferguson9703]

In 31 yrs of playing and have a jazz theory background Mr. Bruno just schooled my ass and opened my eyes ears his approach is a breath of fresh air

[@josemolina959]

One of the Instructional Videos that I have is by Jimmy Bruno, his approach is so innovative and well explained. A total master! Teacher and player!

[@kenarts11]

Jimmy is one of the greatest musical minds of all time

[@remley8877]

Jimmi F ing Bruno! Gotta love the giy. Best jazz guitarist alive.

[@frillylizzard]

Remley absolutely true!!

[@BuckJoFiden]

It’s great to be an old fart and still discover amazing artists like Jim Bruno. Mind you I’m Aussie. So we’re like in another world here.

[@winstonsmith8240]

I love everything about Jimmy Bruno.

[@trumpsahead]

That was the most totally awesome Darn That Dream rendition I ever will hear in my life. Mind blowing greatness.

[@paulgibby6932]

"Joy Spring" (at the end)? Or did I miss this earlier?

[@thormusique]

Thanks for posting this - it's amazing! Mr Bruno's mastery of the guitar is phenomenal, and his insights can save players years of frustration and confusion. There's nobody quite like him.

[@FrettieFingers]

Jimmy Bruno absolutely killin' it.... at his finest.

[@stevenroper3577]

This is fantastic music, sweet tone and sense of rhythm, such incredible forms falling in place

[@Jazzzzer456]

What a "Monster Guitarist"!! Awesome! Thanks for sharing

[@Twofiddymill]

His album…LIKE THAT …wow..wicked chops..

[@lw8281]

A total master! Teacher and player!

[@michaelzinna6536]

One of the best performances I’ve ever heard. The so called new genius’s take note. What he has can’t be taught at some school.

[@morbidmanmusic]

"The so called new genius’s take note" name some names so we can gauge what a fool and ignoramus you are being. Stop building up one by tearing down others. useless.

[@AndrewSmith-pc8eq]

I love this Jimmy but the present day Jimmy is alot funnier!

[@DannyMontana-z9l]

To see a man recover from stroke by chainsmoking. What an inspiration.

[@BrandochGarage]

Such beautiful sounds.

[@stringsnare]

these throwback thursdays from MI really have been destroying my self confidence. thanks guys.

[@robertgolder4346]

I've never seen or heard anyone else play that good!! Absolutely the best!!

[@AslanBlood]

Well, save to say, Jimmy Bruno is one of my biggest idol and icon until up to this day. I just love Wizardry ♥

[@sega62s]

what a positive man, I like the musician and the man is as humble as can be, and well opened, and great mind for idiots like me 😊

[@SuperLoveskate]

Jimmy represents music so purely

[@iceWaterProductions1]

I’ve made it a point to turn my 13 year old niece and 8 year old nephew on to good jazz guitar on our 20-30 minute ride home from school on the days I pick them up. Jimmy is sure on the playlist of guitarists they’ve heard. I would love to know if he could ever come to Texas as I would like for them to have a chance to see him perform.

[@Llirik_Kuynorov]

young Herman Li sitting in with Jimmy, what a sight to see. Jimmy always keeps it real

[@MarcLelogeaisGuitariste]

Énorme le joy Spring a la fin aie aïe aïe 👍👍👍🎶

[@kerrybarnes7289]

what a great teacher

[@ltcuaa]

i learned this song on my first guitar lesson.......

[@edidpro]

AWESOME! Love Jimmy!

[@MrZiontz]

What a great rendition, he has such a variety of beautiful sounds.

[@NATJANOFF22]

Jimmy is awesome!!!

[@bertenkel6764]

Wonderful, Jimmy.

[@keithbaxter6066]

Hmmmm.... how amazing was that? How does anyone give this a thumbs down??

[@bobbyarthur8809]

Lack Of understanding id Imagine , this is a master class Of the highest mountain …

[@tombstoneharrystudios584]

Great teacher and a wonderful, practical approach!

[@xxczerxx]

That thing Jimmy says about thinking of a circle of tones in relation to C is something I just can't get, maybe my head's not made for it. I feel the same way about the Pat Martino diminished thing. Maybe over time I'll see. I can't ever see myself not seeing tonal centre, and chords/tones based around it. I completely agree with his "five pictures" thing though, I found learning inversions for maj/min/dom 7ths really helped cement that... It's just fragments of the major scale.

[@Fernandozada]

My favorite guitar player

[@amedeo1993]

Probably One of the Most Informative Videos i have seen on YT to date!!!!

[@escoyancey5940]

Beautiful Guitarist !!

[@guitarttimman]

Wow! Virtuoso

[@castellanodrclaudio]

........elegante,raffinato, creativo, estroso, come sempre. Un Grande Artista lo riconosci subito, dalle prime note, dai primi accordi, da quei fraseggi fantasiosi ed armoniosi che solo pochi sanno eseguire, arrangiare ed interpretare.! In altri termini, Jimmy Bruno è un Artista da collocare fra i "Grandi dei Firmamento Musicale". I miei sinceri complimenti. c.castellano, italia ... ....elegant, refined, creative, whimsical, as always. A Great Artist you immediately recognize it, from the first notes, from the first chords, from those fanciful and harmonious phrases that only a few can perform, arrange and interpret. In other words, Jimmy Bruno is an artist to be placed among the "Grandi dei Firmamento Musicale". My sincere congratulations. c.castellano, italy

[@Minotauro_di_Chieti]

[@rmcfee]

Unbelievable!

[@edidpro]

[@drbelljazz]

Jimmy's the man!

[@rmcfee]

Outrageously good!

[@simenlien4693]

What`s the name of the tune Jimmy plays in the end of the lesson.

[@ericksaulchangperez9388]

Did he say he considers Eric Johnson a jazz guitarist?

[@SIRONEDRAGON]

Nice !!

[@iceWaterProductions1]

What kind of guitar is Jimmy playing?

[@jfree336]

Looks like a Sadowsky

[@sega62s]

most important is the neck, get the right feel so your hand move freely

[@Ivan_Ku.]

Beast!!! THX!

[@jazzydog]

Superb!.

[@castanonw]

Monster Philly Cat

[@LitOfPrince]

This is just awesome! Can I edit this video and make subtitles and use it for studying material for my people?

[@jimbo9800]

Da Man

[@ronaldboykin9755]

He plays a lot like Joe Pass!

[@aadityakiran_s]

Man he was so good. He doesn't play this good even on his solo album. He's past his prime now I think.

[@iceWaterProductions1]

I’ve watched his recent videos from his house and it seems like he’s ripping it up pretty good still

[@michaelpowell7120]

James, you learned THAT when you were a little kid?

[@utube9000]

What the HELL was that last tune? Sounds familiar - but Bruno's rendition of it is INCREDIBLE!

[@jieunchoigtr]

Joy Spring by Clifford Brown

[@atomicflash1753]

When the coughing in the audience is louder than the guitar

[@Sledgehammers_Nail]

Yeah like wtf man

[@sclogse1]

But Jimmy could have mentioned Nashville along with L.A. And New York.

[@MichaelCrutcher]

Nashville is way overrated. Full of waiters and waitresses with an acoustic guitar in their trunk, in hopes that the entertainer doesn't show up and they get their big break playing in a restaurant. A city full of people writing songs around I,vi, IV, V. No variations. Music city with very few places to play, and none of them paying. Music City = Music Scam. Even the studio scene is falling off. When Brent Mason is doing sessions for songwriters' demos, you know things aren't looking good.

[@johnmurphy7762]

Nashville aka "music city ", no longer has a jazz radio station or classical or world. Plenty of country and one Americana type program. Much smaller places have electronic music ,opera, avant garde , bluegrass and world music. Driving through Knoxville I found all these examples on radio. When I was in high-school in Indiana we could get a broadcast of a program of blues music . I think the disc jockey was called J.R. This was late 60s . So it seems that as youtube offers everything;the local scene has stagnated.

[@babinm]

he sounds like he's struggling after 2 minutes to find the right bass note and chord fingerings

[@Massimo898]

he's bablin' a lot...

[@wittvonwitt4403]

Hahahahahahahanaha Jimmy is a master and has forgotten more than most guitarists will ever learn.
