http://www.jazzeveryone.com introduces a Language System that facilitates the playing of Giant Steps or almost any other jazz tune. This unique Language System organizes, presents and develops the Pentatonic Scales in such a way as to reveal the essence of the Jazz Language. Pentatonic Pairs found in the Pentatonic Scales form melody chains that jazz masters used to create the Jazz Vocabulary still used today. Join Willie Thomas at http://www.jazzeveryone.com for more great lessons.

  • Hey, thanks man ... Just stay at it, keep your teeth and your sanity and it will all happen. Good luck.

  • It all made sense until it had to be applied. lol Actually, I got it , but a simple explanation of how many measures of each lick applied would save a lot of frustration.

  • @plangentmusic Yo, actually the Pentatonic Pair set-ups in the example on page 2 of the download does just that. Check it out. There are ways of controlling frustration, however! LOL

  • Hey Willie. I'm 39 years old, have been playing for 21 years. I began to play professionally in 2004 and love it when the 20 somethings come up to me and are blown away by my playing...just as I am blown away by your playing. When I get older I hope my playing sweetens to your awesome level. Jazz is the ongoing experience, and you are truly a master :-)

  • Great Master !
