Excellent tutorial! Analyzing the melodic structure as well as the chords of the song is a great way to learn and enjoyment of practice. Thank you so much for this video.
@@mariolamadrid Thanks 🙏 Mario! Glad you enjoyed. I'm currently working on a Chick Corea tutorial "Spain". Feel free to explore my playlists for others.
Oh I just wish I could wrap my head around this for my alto sax 😮
Hi Amanda, how can I help? Do you need a chart for your alto sax? Keep at it. Everything comes together with time :-)
Bravo ! This is truly the best improv explanation of Cantaloupe Island I've seen on UA-cam! Thank you so much!

Greetings from Jamaica!
Well, I have what to do. Especially since I am a poor pianist. Thank you so much Paul. Great material for me to study. It will take me some time to learn and coordinate my hands. Comin' home baby is also a great study material. Yours sincerely 😁
There is no such thing as good or bad. 😉 Think of it this way...Every pianist is in a stage of being "very familiar or unfamiliar" with a tune or style.
@@Jazzmentl Thank you Paul. I'm going to practice 😁 Have a nice day :)
Excellent tutorial Paul, I love it! But in terms of theory, why is it that you can use the mentioned scales of *F minor* in Db7, as you say starting at 08:03 and 09:04? The chords share only some notes… I hope you can explain, highly appreciated!
Great lesson, teacher ! Thanks !! At 7'00 - 7'30''' are you using natural F minor scale for quartals ?
It's more like F Dorian or even Aeolian.
@@Jazzmentl thanks !!
Can someone please explain why a g-flat and a d-flat both work when comping and soloing on this tune? Is it because they’re treated as passing tones, or do they belong to a certain scale that aligns with the key signature or an f-minor chord？
Well the first thing is that g flat and d flat can be passing notes. In fact any note can be a passing note. But I think more importantly during the tune it skips into d-flat as the temporary key of the moment. Once you're in d flat of course the root works and g flat works as part of the scale.
@@Jazzmentl Thanks. When you started demonstrating chordal patterns for soloing, you hadn’t yet addressed the d-flat chord in the left hand, so I wrongly assumed the chordal patterns at that point only applied to the f-minor chord. But now I see the light!

Why is he swinging?
