Thank you so much Jeff for a no fluff, no fillers to get to 10 min videos and no bull**** video. This is pure gold!
These are nice licks but what chords do you use these licks on, can you demonstrate them on a video
Can every jazz lesson be like this? I have been studying for years and have never seen such a simple yet effective way to look at seemingly tough licks. Thanks Jeff!
Spot on!
Yes!
My thoughts exactly!
This is literally the best video about jazz licks I’ve ever seen in my life
No 10 mins intro and ads, no crazy title, just some really useful and understandable content. Great stuff!
The pace, the depth of the content, various applications and origins. This is a holy grail of common jazz language. Awesome work.
Simple building blocks like this are much easier for me to internalize than what I think of as full blown licks (which often aren't simple or short enough to work as building blocks).
Excellent presentation, thank you Jeff!
Jeff, thank you for these licks. I can't wait to practice and use them in my solos. You are really helping us to learn jazz language.
Jeff!!! thank you so much for putting this up. Very clear and great addition to my music vocabulary and framework.
I've made similar comments on your other videos, but I need to say it again: Your teaching style and your lessons are gold - they transfer so well for my playing level and understanding of theory (both late intermediate). Best of all, I'm a guitar player and your way of teaching gets me away from thinking too much about patterns and shapes and positions and instead focuses on simply playing notes that sound great over particular chords and cadences. Thank you!
As an oboe player trying to work my way into jazz playing EWI but know little to none advanced chords or jazz theory, this is incredibly helpful. This + the chord scale chart is a God send trying to internalize everything. Please keep making videos like this!
Man. Where has this video been all my life!! Thanks so much. I've been playing piano for decades and really wanted some jazz solo ideas and you've actually presented them so simply here. Thanks so much. 🎉
I think this is the best video explaining essential jazz licks that I've seen yet ! Thank you so much for this. I am already practicing all this stuff on bass guitar, and it makes so much sense now 😮👌😀🙏
You are wonderful! This is what people need! I'm a lick player myself, and I think what you've presented here is essential, especially for younger players who want to get their teeth into hot soloing, patchwork quilt style! These licks are so great! Thanks for the simpilcity and easy going way you present this important material! Ingenius! You are helping so many people, myself included!
Thank you…. I’m wide opened now! Bless you Sir!
This is where the real language begins, thanks so much for sharing your knowledge with us!
One of The Best Tutorials Ever!!!!
this is one of the best lick videos because small ideas are the most applicable. ii (1, 3, 5, 7) V (3, 1) was one that got me going
Thank you so much for this! I’ve spent the last couple days transposing and combining these licks to every key and octave (I play guitar) and boy oh boy, is it freeing up the solos!
Wow! Thank you! Very well explained and structured
Thanks Jeff, a really good and helpful video.
So great, Jeff. Tank you. Appreciate.
Thank you Jeff. Most of the great players really knew theory. So few teachers can simplify to help you learn more and faster to become a better player and confident on tues.
Great practical explanation. Thank you!!
This is truly a great video! - It must feel so liberating to have these down in all 12 keys. Thanks for the insight and inspiration!
Exactly the kind of content I seek. Thank you! I'll practice the licks
Just what I've been looking for, thanks
Love love love! Beyond Giant steps!
The language analogy is endless: If there's anything I've learned from Jeff's videos, his Making the Changes and Chord Tone Magic courses, and being on the monthly discussion group for a while, it's that you don't have to play something brilliant all the time. In fact, repetition is good! Just think: on an average day, do you go around proclaiming wisdoms all the time? More likely, you are making small talk, using only a very small part of the words and phrases you know, and using most of those words many times. These licks are great for making musical conversation. It's up to you to come up with the occasional brilliant idea, or, even better, a good joke!
Cheers, Anton
BTW: Jerry Coker's book Elements of the Jazz Language for the Developing Improvisor is entirely based on phrases commonly found in the solos of many jazz greats.
one of the best videos i found....thank you
Excellent thank you very much for this...
Nice stuff, and presented clearly and concisely. Thank you.
I think it's good to get to the "idea" behind why a lick works because once you understand that you can create infinite varieties on a theme. But learning cool licks is kind of how we all start until we feel comfortable creating our own on the spot.
It’s totally subjective.
Well also it gives you the technical ability to access the chord tones & degrees without thinking much
Thanks Jeff! This is really good licks for the bebop language. Inspiring!
Truly amazing video!
amazing info
Nice explanation on connecting the licks to create a musical line! Nice video.
Thanks for great licks lesson! I just received your chord sheets. Really great job with them! ❤
"Naming" is a good idea and I got more sense on each lick by image coming from the "name"!
Thank you very much, Jeff!!!
This is so helpful!
Damnably excellent
Great stuff! Really tasteful lines that are fun to build off of. Thanks!
It's crazy to me sitting here thinking about when i just started jazz, i watched your videos and understood almost nothing you said. Not gonna lie, I totally forgot this channel existed until now, but now I'm here watching this video after graduating jazz school and every single one of these licks is THE jazz vocabulary. It's all second nature to me now!
this is goated. although the licks are somewhat simple, the examples you gave helped me find exactly the type of sound I like in jazz, and how it's actually built on simple blocks. cheers!
Great video, thanks!
Great stuff. Thanks very much.
Brilliant! Thanks, Jeff. I've bought some of your materials in the past.
Love this, thank you. After every one of your segments my brain would rapid fire the next bit in my head. My grandpa was Charlie Ventura and I always wish I could play like him. Cheers
I have been here since you started my brother love the growth keep doing your thing✊🏿✊🏿✊🏿
Thanks
jeff im a college guitar player and ive needed this video for 5 years. thank you!
Nice video. Straight to the point.
Great stuff, thanks!
This is great! Appreciated.
Great choices!
Thanks! Also bought Licks for Days!!
Purer than Gold..
Great work!
Very useful "Freshman" Jazz licks we can apply right now to navigate chord changes. Thanks.
Finally. Simple and useful.
Thanks Jeff, I have been looking for a long time to find something like this. I am up and running now.... very much appreciated 😅
Really loved this video Jeff. Thank you. Being Classically-trained, it really is hard for me to get into this genre which I desperately want to do. You explained the licks clearly and broke it down so that I could understand it. We are so used to just using notation, which is what prevents us from improvising; this has really facilitated improvisation for me.
Jeff back at it with the killer content 🔥🔥
Excellent !
I have my jazz band audition for my senior year in highschool. this more valuable to me than you can ever know
Nice job breaking these down 👍
This is awesome dude - good work.
Merci!
Muy bueno. Gracias por co.partor. saludos desde Buenos Aires.
this is gold
superb video editing
hey Jeff, i just discovered your channel but honestly i wanna say that this video was exactly what i needed. I wasn't sure where to start with soloing cuz it can be quite overwhelming imo, but this gave me a really good platform to begin on. I feel excited again to try soloing with this new train of thought! :D
thanks so much for uploading this
I like the fast pace!
This video is amazing. I was going in like "okay, how common can they be?" Then recognized all of these licks from songs I've heard. It's crazy to put sound to theory and have it all click
Wow Jeff! One of the best jazz pedagogical videos I’ve seen! Hope you’re doing well! 🙌
Dude this video is amazing!! Better than any other jazz theory video I’ve seen. +1
Great stuff!
This is very good.
Wonderful job ! So useful... 🔧
Thanks. I am trying the licks on bass guitar.
This is fantastic and well presented. I'll be sharing this with all my jazz students, thank you!
And there begets the problem
@@paulsawtell3991 How so?
Such a great video
Awesome!
OMG bruh!!!
You’re a 💎🔥
Great video, been looking for something similar for a while, bought many books that weren't as clear and concise
If possible, would you mind summarizing them on a PDF?!
this was really good man 👍🏻
excellent
I've butted my head against jazz for an embarrassingly long time. These nuggets of wisdom spoke to me immediately. Thank-You!
Très bien super. Muito bom maravilhoso. Merci beaucoup. Muito obrigado
Great Lesson.👌
Good to see you back Jeff... you're looking more mature these days!
great video
Muy bueno, gracias!!!
sehr gute und klar formulierte melodische Aufgaben, extrem useful , nützlich," amtlich," Danke
Great video! Keep it up!
This is great bro!
I play double bass, cello and percussion, but these licks are still useful.
Wow just discovered you channel, great stuff, thanks!
Great video, earned my sub
