the power of a major scale

[@eugenebeasley1094]

Jimmy you are a wonderful player and instructor . You explain things so people understand it. And it sound fantastic. Great teacher with none of the bs that most try to confuse players with. I thoroughly enjoyed this lesson.

[@robertbrown8416]

Jimmy!!! Im an old boy from Louisiana, down with the meanest Alligators... I Really like your music my friend... Keep up the Great Work.......... Thankx

[@dexterholmes6033]

Thanks! I've been trying to work this for years. I love the flat 9, flat 5 incorporated in at times.

[@youmondo]

I teach all day at a local music store and THEN I come home at night and learn from the Master! Thanks Jimmy.

[@stevedouglas7375]

To my ears, just playing the C scale with a nice melody with no outside notes, it swings nicely just doing that. I like the comment about it's okay to hold onto a note and the flip-side comment about not liking the outside line that was played because it was too busy sounding. Flashy fast lines are impressive for sure, but give me a simple nice melody that swings and I'm digging it.

[@kerrybarnes7289]

this is all in his no-nonsense jazz DVD, great teacher

[@vinzgozer]

Most underrated guitar dvd👍🏽

[@f33fifofum]

Ah man, I gotta find a copy. Thanks for the recommendation

[@bmaniac1]

What you played is a lost art. Your generation, and older could really play. Beautiful melodic lines that compliment the song.... it's a lost art. Too much left brain theory has everyone just going outside after 4 measures playing a bunch of bs. It's harder to keep creating melodic statements where every note means something....with the feel like you just did!!!! Could listen to you all day!

[@JimmyBrunoJazz]

thank you bill

[@MichaelNeverisky]

I learn more listening to 8:51 of Jimmy Bruno than just about anything else I can think of.

[@MrChriswalkermusic]

You used to room with my buddy Don Brusock. I worked under his nursing license and as a young guitarist he gave me a cassette tape from one of your live shows in Philadelphia. Still following you Jimmy B.

[@robertbunt1038]

What magnificent playing and a great sounding instrument cheers jimmy

[@lajo667]

Astonishing playing! You gave me many things to think about in this lesson! Thank you. Greetings from Germany!

[@musicforheadphones2731]

So great, is this why Miles on a tune like Solar just gets me more than hearing someone more modern take it 'out' so quickly?

[@chrisluther_mus]

Thank you Jimmy, This video is opening up a whole bunch of ideas for me.

[@JimmyBrunoJazz]

that's the idea,, research it.. all the best

[@1elvin]

This is one of my favorite lessons :)

[@josephjones3315]

You're a treasure. Not many left. Thanks for sharing.

[@sixslinger9951]

These videos are priceless.

[@thomasmartinscott]

I learn something just looking at your hat! lol Seriously, I've never NOT learned something from your videos! Thank You, for your time and generosity!

[@winstonsmith8240]

I leave a comment on all of your videos because I hear it's good for your algorithm or something. I just do it because I love you. 😉

[@xxczerxx]

Now this is great stuff. The tidbits about your approach are gold... Granted, most of it is "use your ear" but there's something really cool about seeing you talk through it

[@frankanthonypascarella2620]

Thanks Jimmy..... Awesome advice, and always love your playing and great sense of humor.

[@puravida1949]

Jimmy that was a great lesson! It was amazing how good a major scale sounded over the F9,Em7,Eb9,Dm7 etc. How musical ideas can carry through the chords.

[@pacificnwse9613]

I love you, Jimmy. Thank you

[@sgazzz]

So good, could listen to this noodling around all day...thanks much Jimmy!

[@markteasdale9283]

Great ear for melody..... Excellent no nonsense playing....I'm a rock player....But I love good jazz lines

[@josephjones3315]

I really enjoy your sources. Made easy for your pupils. You swing very well with that laid back Miles approach. Very soulful.

[@Riddlemewalker]

Thank Maestro . It’s been a while but I always learn something from your videos. Favorite quote “ you can hang onto a note. You don’t have to fill it up.

[@ensaerodynamics8615]

I just rediscovered you and just love these lessons thanks. I assumed that it would all be over my head but you have a few that are for more entry level people. Thanks!

[@Len_J_]

I saw somewhere that getting the min to Maj sound is most important over changes

[@garthunger7811]

“Why is it too many? Cause I didn’t Ike it!” Brilliant.

Great stuff to mess around with. Fantastic guitar. I'm going to save this one to my "favorites". Peace, "Salem" Steve

[@owainarthur1251]

the lick at 7:01 is so cool - cheers JB

[@federico7748]

Thank you, you make me feel kind of re-born musically speaking, my fingers know where they have to go to play the notes in my head, thank you again

[@FURDOG1961]

0:00 Cool. Major scale and the use of outside notes, but not too many. 8:00

[@petersmart894]

Hi Jim! This has got to be one of the most simplest lessons ever. Thanks.

[@derbyd10]

2:57.. it's that lick.. you make that axe sound great ..

[@ivolime]

jimmy, as a brazilian trying to get a little bit of the jazz language, i feel like your videos make it so much more understandable and truly beautiful. many of ''instagram jazz'' guitar players are constantly choosing fast licks instead of melodies. thanks for your work!

[@ab77blues]

Great lesson, man. Thank you.

[@BEARGUITARJAZZ]

Nice flame on that one, sounds great too!!

[@MDugardin]

Marvellous, that's how i learned to play music, with the major scale :)

[@denny6281]

The Sadowsky sounds great. You make everything swing, thanks Jimmy! I dig the Coltrane line at 7:14.

Great video and lesson. Thanks! Up till now I thought that Parker lick was a Pat Martino one. He plays it in the El Hombre album, on Just Friends I think.

[@sclogse1]

[@alward5678]

You add the best Jimmy

[@claytonhiggins9115]

You remind me a bit of my old Teacher in Cleveland,

[@paulgibby6932]

Nice exercise. I like when you said something wasn't good because you didn't like the sound, not because of the particular extensions that were used. Sound first, theory later (you've been saying that a long time). Thanks!

[@spivvo]

wow... thanks for the ap tip Mistrro...just downloaded.

[@railcar123]

Great lesson..

[@alexiabent4142]

.hi ....sir you got gold mind .Nice playing.

[@JerryCherryBand]

Love you Jimmy. Are you thinking of target notes when your landing, or just playing it by ear? I find when randomly playing diatonic I'll land on a wrong note.

[@keelanp53]

Awesome Jimmy!

[@gannonb4u]

Jimmy can I share some of my playing with you on this page?

same as above just lower the 3rd

[@dylanshakib2669]

lmao this dude plays the lick all day

[@dmz140]

Another excellent vid!

[@rickshafer6688]

I watched the interview you recently did, where you said all the instruments can't be on the same part of the beat. Man, that is so right. Every classical i listen to has the low strings - (bass, cello); lagging the violins and violas. It's like a physical law. It's an immutable law of music. The non rushing law.

[@bluesman3794]

Thats about the level I'm at...maybe there's hope

[@bobryan8793]

Just genius...that's it

[@guitar6schoolofmusic415]

Thanks for making life simple. Does this technique work for 1 6 2 5 or for rhythm changes on the a section? I always had trouble with soloing over rhythm changes because I 'm thinking about the scales that go over each chord. Any thoughts on how to simplify soloing over rhythm changes.

[@tombstoneharrystudios584]

Guitar 6 School of Music I’ve been influenced by the Charlie Christian style of playing...musicians used to treat the A section as one big I chord, and embellishing the basic scale with chord tones or chromatics as the ear dictates...try it!

[@guitar6schoolofmusic415]
