Jimmy is so calm and well behaved here !

[@FretDojo]

He's quite the character, as well as an amazing player and genuinely nice guy.

[@billyfitzgerald834]

🤣 A rarity nowadays. Hes a grumpy old man now but you can tell that hes a good guy.

[@robinBrownmanfromHtown]

Yo Jim! I tried to get you into my Rolling Stone cover band when you were just a youngster but you were way too good for us. Looking good Jim!

[@tmo7734]

I like Jimmy Bruno's no nonsense frankness when he tells the story about his career. Clearly, and no BS type of guy.

[@FretDojo]

He was a wonderful interview and the Fret Dojo students all loved his private masterclass that he gave them. Terrific guy!

[@tonydeAraujo]

Great interview, Love hearing Jimmy Bruno, always! My favorite tune from the featured album (Polarity) is "Poem for #15".

[@FretDojo]

A true living legend and real genuine guy!

[@DETROITBULLET]

I wish you would come to Detroit Jazz fest youd be welcomed with honors thanks for this video . Amazeing playing

[@slickwillie3376]

[@FretDojo]

Jimmy is a one of a kind!

[@glennScharaga-oh2hi]

I would love to see you interview another Philadelphian, the great Robert Conti.

[@lionelcampos9868]

Hello Jimmy,the first time of hearing you play it was luv of your playing and knowledge.Being a git player by ear I wore out your records and tapes God Bless☮️

[@FretDojo]

Jimmy is amazing!

[@kamks6054]

Excellent this album Polarity, This is in my playlist

[@michaelzinna6536]

An Icon!!!

[@FretDojo]

Always fun to listen to. So many great stories and tips!

[@andybaldman]

Interesting to hear Jimmy say he knows Barry Greene.

[@Jonobueno]

Check out Jimmy trading blows with organ player Joey DeFrancesco on the track 'Pats House' and his mind blowing speed on 'Unit Seven' Album : 'Like That' Crazy stuff. Just amazing.

[@FretDojo]

Jimmy has amazing chops for sure!

[@stuartcowie8922]

"Go sell shoes" - priceless

[@FretDojo]

Jimmy is a unique and special character that's for sure :)

[@wadecottingham]

8:58 sounds like Jimmy had "Original Sound" off (if you were doing Zoom)

[@GuitarTerraYT]

Yes my fault. I wasn't expecting him to play (glad he did!) so I didn't catch that before we started. We switched it about half way through.

[@TheEpochCompanion]

Jimmy's gotta start his KZbin channel back up.

[@hosseinm4433]

He does have an active new YT channel. It’s called Bruno online jazz school or something along that line.

[@huytonbaldy]

I used to love his morning rants

[@bobtaylor170]

​@@huytonbaldyholy sh*t, yes!!!! I used to scream with laughter.

[@clydebermingham121]

The old saying : “They they rule the world rise up early in the morning “

[@kentbernard7460]

only 121 likes...is that correct? What great player and story..

[@FretDojo]

Well, only a small percentage of viewers general give a 'like', I think a lot more people than that really enjoyed hearing from Jimmy. I agree, great player and history. We could talk to him a few times and I bet he'd never run out of interesting stories!

[@JonWRowe]

Economy picking. You can probably play those lines using strict alternate picking (Steve Morse is good that way). Except that kind of technique is really hard to develop.

[@mattdowie92]

Clint Strong plays bebop with a lot of alternate picking. Similar to Hank Garland in style.

[@burtmantooth8913]

Please get Hank Mackie from New Orleans on your awesome show

[@FretDojo]

Great tip, we'll look into it!

[@burtmantooth8913]

@@FretDojo That’s spectacular

[@travelingman9763]

He tells nonpopular facts and isn't a snob like many so called artists.

You could go fishing on the road ... i know i know f that

[@victorparedes4863]

Haha, so isn't this Jersey Mike? Sure looks and sounds like him! Well whaddaya' know? These days everybody thinks they can play guitar nowadays, eh? What's next, gonna' run for some political office?

[@tyronejoihnson7046]

Sad to see his skills deteriorate.

[@BuckJoFiden]

He probably dodged a career bullet by not being influenced early on by the popular rock guys.

[@donbailey8116]

Jimmy's postings on KZbin are great and his turn of a word is fun to hear.

[@FretDojo]

Jimmy is a treasure!
