I would like to say that it took me well over 20 hours of solid repetition; viewing this video, pausing, looping, slowing down and starting over to get these 3 modes (melody, chords and bass) committed to memory and under my fingers. I have since been able to branch out and play along with Paula cole's version, Miles w/Adderly, Chet Baker, and Eva Cassidy's versions of this song. I cannot stress enough how rewarding it is to be in this position of accomplishment. When Jim said it will be a lot of work, he was not bullshitting. It is a lot of work and well worth it. Thank you, Jim for this GREAT lesson.
Great comment … and I’m with you 100%. At first I couldn’t really see the need to play the melody and chords but now that I’m on it I can see the wisdom. And you’re right, it’s a TRUCKLOAD of hours but so worth it as you say… opens other doors. Still playin’ along with you Big Jim … what a gift you have given us who REALLY want to get better. You showed us the way, clear as day.
I understood Joe passed away Feb 2021. I am just now after 50 years as an ear player getting around to his lessons. What a marvelous individual, musician, teacher. The accolades are many and hail this gentleman, and I mean, gentle, in the highest regard and esteem. Here I am today finally learning "Autumn Leaves" like it's supposed to learned melody and chord structure. God, Mr. Stinnett makes all this so damned easy and here was for years toughing it out like a dumbass.
Your soul lives on my friend. I just found you and you live still. Bet you know this anyway. Thank you so much for everything you left us dear Jim. Legend. I'm 71 so I'll look you up in the ethers for jam.
I can't tell you how much I appreciate these lessons! I've been stuck on the Blues in Bb lesson for about a week, but I almost got it! At my pace I'll get a lot of mileage out of your channel. I love it!
I started practicing this for about an hour now and got the melody part down! You are absolutely right, it helps to play along over and over (especially for someone like me playing bass by ear). I will study the rest next time. I appreciate you for taking the time to create this lesson!
I have just become interested in Jazz & walking bass lines. I have just discovered Jim Stinnett. Its such a MASSIVE shame he is not with us anymore but still would like to thank him for his passion, his communication skill, his teaching clarity, his ability to make learning fun & his beautiful charisma & smile. I will now watch & learn from all his videos. Thank you Jim. You ARE amazing! From a Londoner living in Iceland
man, you for me, in your way becomes the most fun youtuber there is, you can transmit happiness and joy to those who see and hear you, cheers and congrats
That face at 10:23, if you know what I mean ! Jim, thank you for your really real bass lessons, I hope some day I will be able to play as solid as you do. Lots of love from Georgia !!!
Seeing how much you dug playing it... 👌🏾😎. I looked through many videos trying to find a proper and uncomplicated version to learn this one. I’m going to check out other videos you have. Thanks you kindly.
Sir. Let me tell you two words with all due respect you deserve... "THANK YOU!" This lesson is fantastic! The best in all RUclips! A band sent me to learn this song for a next rehearsal... And I didn't know where I was standing!. and thanks to you, I will have fun that day. Great Channel! Great Host! Excellent bass player! 10/10 (Btw. 2 dislikes??? WTF!?) #AutumnLeaves #Bass #Venezuela
Thank you very much for helping me along my musical Journey you've been very instrumental in my growth and development as a player I am very fortunate to have such a wonderful outlet there at real bass lessons!
I know that tune. you are right Jim, do it the same way every time. You know I could never do that..I will go in the house and get out the 3/8ths Kay and I will try it with you.
RIP Jim, here I am learning Autumn Leaves again.. very sad, the bass world lost one of its great educators
Oh nooo 😢 I didn’t know Jim passed away. RIP 🙏🏾 We shall meet up in glory playingBass!
Jim brought me out of my bass coma; I will be forever grateful. He passed away on my birthday-life can be cruel.
What happened to Jim?
I did not know Jim passed. Great musician.
😔

You are welcome Frederick. Learning to play anything well takes tons of work. Good for you. :)
20 hours isn't so bad all things considered. I should commit and spend the time

“No,no,no …. if you want it you’re gonna have to DIG IT OUT!”
Best advice ever.
Jim was such a great human being!!!!
Just revisited this lesson. I really like it. All the parts fit well together. I hope you are joining me in the fun. :)

*Jim, but yes. Sad day for Bass Players..
He's so happy and excited playing his bass
Been playing since 1973. Never too old to learn something new on an old standard.
Probably 1 of the best beginner lesson... you can definitely grow on this lesson

Is there a downloadable music sheet for this?
Love this. Really well taught and it's very clear. One question. What is the BPM of the drums?
Te amo tata colores
Fun as the music should be! ❤ Thank you very much! may I ask, what scales were used for the soil? minor natural, minor harmonic ... and ...
Humberto, I don't really think of scales when I play. I learn jazz language.
5:19 dont mind me, i wanna learn this for a sch project!
9:24 basslinw
cool.
i am not seeing the link to sheet music? Is there any?
Is it possible to get a pdf of this? Thank you.
No. Use yout ears and eyes.
Wonderful presentation! I have another teacher..
Awesome lessons thank you, possible to have the tabs?
No tabs.
You have probably given this information in an earlier lesson but I was wondering which drum machine app you are using??
I use Garage Band in my computer.
could you tell me the chord progression you are using?
You can easily find in on Google
Real bass lessons - sink or swim.
... or repeat many times.
Real Bass Lessons Jim your teaching method is amazing . I get what you are doing 🙂
@@MegaDieseldriver Thanks. Glad to hear it. Hope it is helping.
