Really nice breakdown of the song. Thanks for the video. Learning this to play with a band, and it helps to watch your fingering and hear your ideas for the different sections of the song. I totally agree about using the right hand in a band setting. The bass player has a great opportunity in this number to show his stuff, so why get in the way!
Hello Tony. Great song, I like it very much. Listen, in the late 1990's a German guy showed me a version where they used the C chord also : Am7, Bm7, C7+, Bm7, .... I never found the name of that band again, but it was clear to me. And now I realize the original is only the 2 chords.
hey Marcos, a lot of people play it in the way that you described: Am7-Bm7-CMaj7-Bm7...etc. I've seen even high level pro play it both ways, but here's what's interesting about that- if you take an Am7 chord and put a CM7 chord on top of it you end up with an Am9 chord, so both chords can really sit on top of each other nicely. You can actually mix and match those 2 chords a little bit, in other words do the 2 chord vamp and every once in a while go up to CM7 instead of down to the Am. Try it, it's fun. Hope this makes sense.
Hi Tony, I really enjoy watching your videos. Very informative and I love your no nonsense approach. It's so very refreshing. Please keep making your great videos. I've learned a lot from them. Tony, I'm in my 70s and I have just come back to playing piano. I've not played for over 35 years so I'm a little rusty but I have plenty of spare time. I have to say I have no illusions of playing professional piano it's just for my own enjoyment. Thank for your insight.
Man you picked out this solo quick. I just used the blues scale when I played it several years back. Nothing sounds bad in the blues scale but its not like the original. I wish your channel had been available 30 years ago.😀
Great lesson! Thank you. Newb here. The more I listen to your excellent lesson as well as the original song ... the more I need to learn. This is very helpful. Thanks again.
Hey Tony, great channel, great lessons! Since you mentioned it on this particular vid, yes please speak up a little louder and more clearly. Great stuff man!
Hi Tony! Love your stuff. I'm so lucky to have access to this type of content at 15 years old - one of the few things I like about my generation, this youtube thing. I know you've covered "Someday my prince will come", but was wondering if you could do some analysis on it, in particular, Miles Davis' recording? Wynton Kelly's intro really fascinates me - he does some snazzy stuff over an f ostinato - think it would be an interesting thing to cover ! Keep uploading, it's invaluable to all of us! Our "Prince". :)
Hi Tony, you're a very good teacher and player as well, thank you for your free lessons and time. I"m an intermediate jazz piano player but I still get lost sometimes when I improvise in modal tunes like "so what", I don't always "feel" the 4-bars or 8-bars phrases, do you have a trick HOW to practice to obtain it. I hope you understand my english, I"m from Québec. Thanks again.
Could you do a leson about Stablemates(of course you could, you're totally able) but the question stays, are you willing to do that? also focussed to the scales for soloing?
No. The right hand might play a C chord but the bass almost always plays an A on that chord so it is Am7 even if you are only playing notes from the C chord.
@@TonyWinston Thanks for the reply! There are 3 distinct sounding chords in the verse. I'm only hearing 2 in your version. The intro has 2 but the verse changes to 3. Anyway, good talking to you Tony!

Absolutely delightful tutorial! To the point and no droning on in any part. You've given us good bones to work with. Many thanks!
Loved the jazz and blues combo you did on this.

You are an expert at explaining concepts in music. Excellent video!

“Quarter note triplet” = 2-beat triplet, which anyone who has been classically trained should know.
Yep, and I hear classically trained musicians play it inaccurately a lot
@@TonyWinston Key word: “should” know. I’ve never heard the term quarter note triplet, so I wasn’t sure what you meant until you actually played it.
Love this...sounds great...!!!

video on this topic coming soon
Ton anglais est impec, chum!
Great rendition from you Mr.T...Godbless : D
In your first voicing of Amin, you have the G! That is the flat 7th in A minor, so you have an A minor 7.
Yes!
11:45 solo
❤
Man I really thought it was Van Morrison calling. I mean...it wasn't Van? Right?
Could you do a leson about Stablemates(of course you could, you're totally able) but the question stays, are you willing to do that? also focussed to the scales for soloing?
yes, i will post stablemates soon
The verse has 3 chords, like this Am Bm C Bm.
No. The right hand might play a C chord but the bass almost always plays an A on that chord so it is Am7 even if you are only playing notes from the C chord.

@@Paul-bm2jy you're not hearing the bass.

What is worse than one guitar? two guitars, comping together? Sick, what an egoistic people.
