Wow! For someone who constantly says "I'm not a real jazz guitarist", you have a better time feel than a lot of people teaching jazz guitar on RUclips. I think that goes to show that we gotta respect all genres of music and learn to learn from as much as possible. All that funk and blues pocket playing makes your jazz playing sound like dancing with fire :) Sounds funky like Grant Green or Howard Roberts. Nice lines and reference to melody. All the theory and rules don't mean a thing if you can't make it all sing. You, TomoFujita, sure make it dance and sing!

Good work Tomo, I can exactly hear where you are in the progression. This is the way I always study without backing track, training my ear to hit chordnotes and play melodic. A good lesson, greetings Vic.

Thanks for the video. I'm working on this song at the moment and I've just came across your video by accident. I've already figured out the melody and chords by ear, (figuring the chords out took ages!). Anyway, you've given me some helpful ideas to solo over it, because I often find it difficult to turn those arpeggios into something that doesn't sound like an exercise!
I wish I would have learned the basic triads YEARS ago. I spent so many years just playing pentatonic shapes. Never took any lessons. I’m a little behind but I’m catching up!
No worry! When you noticed something. Good job! Thanks so much! I teach much more detail video lessons and super easy theory lessons at my Guitar Wisdom! Just added new lessons!! tomojustfunky.com/tomo-fujita-guitar-practice-advice/

In this video the eye opener for me is to not default to scale and play, yet listen to the chord progression fret the triad to the music using minor, minor 7th, or diminished, or arppegio of that nature and solo through those notes. Not easy, yet a great way to practice for me, thank you for these tips. Least I would eventually understand the notes and flow based on those foundations.

こんばんは やっぱりトライアドは大切なんですね。 頑張らないとですね。トモさんが何を言わんとしているかが、なんとなく分かりますから見てるだけでも、大変勉強？参考に？ なります。笑 日本は🇯🇵 毎日毎日高温多湿で疲れますが毎日負けずに、笑顔で頑張っています。私も8月1日で61歳になりました。笑私事でごめんなさい🙏笑 トモさんのギター講座🎸！励みになってますよ。有り難う御座います。トモさんもコロナ下で大変ですが、いつものスマイルで頑張ってくださいね！！ ホントにいつも有難うございます。又 伺います。ギターは楽しい🎸‼️笑 おやすみなさい🌙
ありがとうございます。ボクの中ではトライアドが深く理解できる事をとても大切にしています。で学びながら、いかに視覚的に理解しないようにするか？がチャレンジです。でも慣れてくるとホントにギターが楽しくなります。日本は湿気が強いでしょうね？ボストンも暑いですが、ボクの家の中は、とっても寒いです！（笑）いっぱい頑張りたいですが、無理しない事、期待しない事のバランスに気をつけています。寝るときは全て諦めるようにしてます（笑）
TomoFujitaMusic 無理せず期待せず諦めて寝る。トモさんらしい笑 いいと思いますよ、ナチュラルでシンプルな考え方が伝わってきます。私もゆっくり少しずつやって🎸いきます。有り難う御座います。エアコンで風邪を🤧引かない様に！！笑 おやすみなさい⭐
寝てるときは何も実現しないんで（笑）その辺りネコちゃんからいつも学んでいます。少しずつがベストです！
TomoFujitaMusic 爆笑🤣そうですねーホントその通りだ。笑 又伺いますね。有り難う。おやすみなさい🌙💤

If the chords changes are happening very fast then how do we follow the changes?

Bossa Nova ❤❤❤
YES!
Could you do a lesson on How to play Salsa or bachata ?
It could be really nice to play and dance at the same time 😂
Thanks so much!
It's called chord tones, not scales. You have to know your triads, arpeggios, chromatic passages and diminish scales. WELCOME TO JAZZ. 😁
