    Such a great teacher - I think I've learned more in the few months I've subscribed to your Patreon than in the previous 10 years - we are lucky to have you Jack. Thank you.

    What used to be learned over many years of jamming, listening, performing, etc. is now spoon fed to us in 22 minute videos. I've got tabs and a backing track too? Fantastic. I remember using cassette tapes and a "boom box" to make my own backing tracks. As a 50 year old guitar player I'm so happy to have these resources but I can't lie I'm a bit jealous of beginners that have this so readily available. There are no excuses to not be a major player in today's world. Thank you Jack. You keep me motivated to learn after 38 years of playing. I'm Gen X FYI not a boomer.

    The epitome of tasty playing, thanks for the brilliant break down. Very humbling for me, now I realize I know next to nothing on guitar but plod away we will and enjoy it.

    Great lesson, Jack. This turned on a bunch of light bulbs for me. I've got a lot of work to do, but I know what I have to work on. And I've got the tabs to study with. Thanks.

    Thanks, Jack, for giving us "the key" as you put it. I play through this stuff all the time and work up from 0.5 speed to regular speed. It's amazing how much better your ear gets especially if you don't use the tabs. Can't thank you enough!

    What a great video Jack!! You spoke a lot on 2-5-1, perhaps a next video can be taking some 2-5-1 backing track and breaking down a solo demonstrating why and how you chose to work the changes. GREAT video man.

    being on a huge Jerry Garcia/Grateful Dead kick over the past two years has really opened my mind into playing the changes. Jerry was a master at it and did it so incredibly effortlessly.

    The great thing about this video, for me, is that I know most of these chords, but my versions don't have the right voice leader. So I'm having to learn new chord inversions as well! Thanks Jack. 👍🏻

    I've just discovered Jack's wonderful channel. As someone who grew up as a rock/blues guy mainly just playing scales to improvise, but always wanting to play in a much more jazz style, I can see I need to spend a lot of time woodshedding arpeggios before I can hope to put this great info to productive use! Gotta get to work,,,,,,, 😅

    @10sassafras 11 месяцев назад +1

    Question: do use this approach to work out lines for future use or for spontaneous, arpeggio based improv. If the latter, how do you prevent the solo sounding like it’s merely “accompanying” the progression?

    • @JackRuch
      @JackRuch  11 месяцев назад +1

      I do both. You have to spend time with it so it doesn’t sound like you’re just running up and down shapes. It takes time

    @DFerg-tl2bs 11 месяцев назад +1

    Thanks Jack. Always enjoy your lessons. The one thing I’m confused about is referring to the key of C for the C7. Doesn’t the C7 suggest the key of F which includes the Bb?

    • @JackRuch
      @JackRuch  11 месяцев назад +3

      It would if c7 was the 5 chord. But it’s clearly the 1 chord in this progression. It’s a bluesy thing so a dominant 1 chord make sense.
