    Done! Starting jazz guitar as a retirement project!

I just watched this video of 10 jazz guitar players taking on Autumn leaves in 10 very different ways. It was so cool to see how they approached it and how this song that everyone knows can sound so special. https://youtu.be/41KGLQrieb0?si=7wm30VyVrAqUc7vQ

    Done! Feel like I've opened the biggest can of worms that I'm about to dive into ;)

At 7 Club in Chapel Allerton (round the corner from me) last night. I love the tempo of this, upbeat & laid back at the same time :) https://youtu.be/_5in7Etingg?si=bMt11SkI9n4jLsJc

    @Ian Goodwin You're right. Volunteers rule!

I've been playing guitar since I was 10 - pop, folk, classical, a bit of blues and last few years Jazz. I really enjoy comping and currently play in a band here in Darlington in NE England ( near Newcastle on Tyne). Steve

    Welcome! Playing in a band is an ambition for me. Haven't done it for ages!

A repost from @Mentor Jurgen Joarder -- thank you x 1000 """ I came across this video of Bill Frisell talking about melody, and how to add notes to that melody to create interesting "thin" chord melodies. It's really interesting and I really like this way of playing. https://youtu.be/FInW-BYXAxU?si=QGiJv7BSWbdkTnTG&t=162 """

    Love that style- making a statement without overplaying. Interesting guitar sound...

In order to introduce myself in this community, here is a little video I made this morning of a piece that I practiced a lot a few years ago. Enjoy https://youtu.be/xbglecU-XI8

    Love your guitar- the Les Paul was a jazz guitar before it was adopted by rock artists. I'm also interested to see a classical fingerpick style- I'm trying to do the same thing but with more of a ragtime approach.

@Adam Elliott encouraged me to post a submission, so here's Pure Imagination 😊

@Coach Marc-Andre Seguin Hi Marc, how much do you think being able to read music is a requirement for working through the program? I'm trying to do that alongside the introductory exercises but using another site- have you got any advice/resource recommendations?

Hi everyone, my name's Pete, I'm from Leeds, UK. I've been playing guitar for a long time but never anything properly- I have a mix of styles, mainly blues and fingerpicking. I want to learn to do something properly so my target is to become proficient at jazz guitar, learn to read music properly and hopefully make a few friends on the way😎

    @Ian Goodwin @Gerry Good Happy Yorkshire Day! I will be at Mecca (aka Headingley) tomorrow for a bit of cricket weather permitting.

This sounds amazing! I'll have to figure out how to play it! https://youtu.be/FYQRyaPsObQ

Hi, I'm Pete, from Leeds in the UK. I've been playing various guitar styles for years but I'm a jazz beginner. I'm looking to learn comping & soloing.
