This is a compilation of my favourite 2-5-1 licks from one of the most tasteful jazz pianists ever! Pdf includes stylistically appropriate comping voicings and rhythms:)

i got into garland cause of number 10

[@Jamesursel1]

I was reluctant to include #10 because it’s the break before a solo (A Foggy Day - Garland of Red) but it’s a perfect 2-5. This one actually turned me on to his playing as well , good taste!

[@williamscott1644]

Well done on this compilation and thanks for sharing! I personally think that every young jazz pianist should start with Red Garland because of his left hand comping patterns.

[@Jamesursel1]

Thank you, yes I agree good for learning comping rhythms and voicings

[@いや俺の方が可愛い]

Thanks bro this is what I wanted.

[@Jamesursel1]

No problem 👍glad you like it!

[@miap2379]

Thank you!! You provide me enough licks to practice!

[@Jamesursel1]

Happy to hear that!

Awesome!!! James!

Thanks Pedro!

I like it

[@TheRiffologyBlog]

Thanks - I was wondering who I should listen to next for some inspiration so Red Garland it is. Great playing!!

[@Jamesursel1]

Thanks, nat cole’s early stuff(where he doesn’t sing) is also a goldmine. He is probably the most underrated and influential jazz pianist.

@@Jamesursel1 Thanks again - I'll take a look/listen.

You're welcome 😊

Very nice !! As someone said in another comment you are "swinging hard" but I like the way you did it in a "funky" manner. Also the section at 2:10 was amazing and I had to slow it down to teally appreciate the nuances..Also I just subscribed.

[@Jamesursel1]

So glad you like, more to come!

Richard I just realized I had a lesson with you at Humber! I remember listening to your version of I Got The world on a string and loving it, I just watched your version of all The things and loved the stride passage!

Pdf includes "stylistically appropriate comping voicings and rhythms:)"? Or "Comes complete with authentic comping voicings and rhythms"? You can learn ii-V-I's till you are Blue in the Face, but that won't help you learn how to tell a Story. They are, after all, only a Punch Line or a Segue at best. You have to know how to set up a Punch Line to be able to tell an effective Story or Joke for that matter. Learned alone and out of context it's really like quoting Shakespeare without knowing what the Play is About.

[@Jamesursel1]

True they are part of a more organic whole, but they still sound good in isolation. These licks are more to get ideas for your own improvisation.

[@baileyayyy5085]

I know the album is fire but you cant include this much garland of red material 🤣

[@Jamesursel1]

I know but at this tempo it was too tempting .lol do you mean garland of red album? So many other licks but that may be another vid “top 1000 red garland 2-5-1 licks”
