[Jonboyutube]

Beautiful. I agree with the comment about lightening the soul. Listen to this and daily cares seem to melt away. Thanks Doug.

[squoocher]

yeah, bloody amazing, thanks so much for posting, really inspirational tuition.

[BBshyJazzArtist]

great improvisation!!!thanks dude...keep up your work

[jimbomed]

Doug: Great version and always interesting interpretation. My favorite version by Tatum was actually played in the key of C as he recorded it. The note for note transcription is published by Hal Leonard and transcribed by Brent Edstrom.14 pages long but so fun to play..Thanks for contributing!

[ebufford]

Nice!!!

[jmcvandijk]

[matthias4848]

So Magical. couldn't be made any clearer. Thank you.

Another perfect, perfect, egoless musical gem....a total zen experience, this stuff really lightens the load everyday!

Another cool sub is in bar #4 where it normally goes Fmi7 to E dim....

Try: Fmi7 / Emi7 A7 followed in the next meas. by

D Maj7 / Ebmi7 followed by the usual Cmi(b5) F7 then Bbminor. etc...you might have to adjust the mel. a bit on the Emi7 A7 part...it all forshadows the D major bridge section..very cool!

[jazz2511]

And very cool too are your instructional videos radiokid2!

[buckwheatjazz]

Beautiful, as always.

A neat substitution is to replace the Eb minor in bar 6 (or 5, depending on your version), with a DMaj7 followed by a BMaj 7 (that essentially makes the melody note the Maj 7 of each chord). Give it a try!

Thanks for all of your generosity!

[jazz2511]

Thats another good idea to add to the many options. Thanks buckwheatjazz!

[1979saxman]

Incredible!! I second that, boswell255. I would pay good money to see this on a more intermediate jazz improv basis.

[mossyburger]

wow... a master at work!

[boswell255]

I'd pay good money for a beginner/intermediate course done in the style of these videos. Theses are pitched a little too far above my current skill level unfortunately. Still top notch!

[zimmermann10]

Genius!

[hrcanda]

Totally ejoyed that! Thanks again!
