"In this edition, we'll be playing over the changes to 11 popular jazz standards that represent the range of feels you'd encounter at a jam or a gig. I'll be demonstrating a more modern approach for comping and improvising over all these backing tracks. We'll jam together over the changes to 'All of Me', 'All the Things That You Are', 'Blue Bossa', 'Cantaloupe Island', 'Alone Together', 'Black Orpheus', 'Bye Bye Blackbird', 'Autumn Leaves', 'In a Mellow Tone', 'Minor Blues' and 'There Is No Greater Love'. Whatever your instrument - guitar, bass, drums, horns...no matter what you play, we'll have a great time jamming together."
