Im not really into jazz, and I like your not jazz vids more.. But I have to say that many times I get jealous on how "easy" those "jazzists" can improvise and play smooth.
Second year was alot more fun than first, better atmosphere, better tunes and classes.
To be perfectly honest im still not even close to cracking into jazz properly. Theres a lot to be done over the summer, I may upload a vid myself doing the jazz thing, most likely not til I get a semi-hollow though.
Cool vid btw, Can tell you've worked on the tune :)
Fantastic playing sir! I myself am JUST starting to get into jazz after playing rock and metal for many years. I guess I just realized one day that you do not have to be "angry" at the world all the time (metal music)! hehehe... I still love the metal stuff but,lately jazz has been a strong growing interest. Especially modern fusion type players (Gambale,Henderson and Di Meola). Thanks for sharing this!
@DarrenDonohoeguitar the music scene in Belfast is OK, nothing spectacular. I make a very minor impact in the performance side (blues) and a major impact in the education side :) ... I thought by now you'd be up there on a research degree! Are you at Trinity, or UCD or somewhere else?
@DarrenDonohoeguitar you're welcome mate, I'm actually on your channel now, just watchin the beat it solo lesson. I'm in Belfast! what about u? you a dublin guy? So what's this Jazz thing? are you doing a PhD or Masters or something mate?
where did you get the track?

@DarrenDonohoeguitar I think I may have seen you around once or twice.
