    Non-players couldn’t imagine how much work and time -years-goes into playing like this. Excellent.

      Yeah….I’ve seen this a lot on UA-cam…..I’m a semi-retired professional musician….been supporting myself through music since 1964 with a masters in music comp and studied with Joe Pass in the mid 70’s and have seen many, many guitar videos on UA-cam and don’t think that I’ve ever seen more than one or two that didn’t knock me out, and if they didn’t, I wouldn’t hit the thumbs down. I guess “there’s no accounting for taste?”

    Dear Chris, I know that this fantastic video is not a real lesson, but the arrangements you usually show and play are, in my opinion, the best guitar lessons that can be found on UA-cam. When I look for a new version of a song of a certain level, in Chord Melody, it means that I am not a newbie, so I don't need to be shown the chords one at a time, in a 20 minute video.
    Personally, I find your videos to be perfect: a nice shot, no words, and above all fantastic, perfect arrangements. There is no desire to show things that are too complicated for the sole purpose of showing off (but most of the times very challenging!), nor are there any arrangements that are too simple, just to attract beginners, and increase numbers. I have been following your channel for years, and as I improved with jazz and Chord Melody, I have always found the right videos here (in your channel), for all levels of difficulty. Never banal, always very swinging, very interesting ideas..
    Guys, listen to me: this is how you learn to play Chord Melody the proper way, because you don't need someone to tell you all the chord positions, it's better if you try to copy what Chris plays, the lead parts etc., use your brains. And please look his face while he's playing Jazz Guitar: that's a big lesson, too. Also look at the other videos from Chris Whiteman, there are real lessons, too, and those are invaluable.
    Thanks Chris. This version of Savoy is wonderful. And the "solo" part.. Uao.
    Greetings from your fan Duke, from Turin, Italy.
