In this lesson, we take a typical jazz blues progression in the key of F, (the same chord progression we learned in the previous lessons on Charlie Parker’s “Billie’s Bounce”), and we learn how to improvise over it and craft authentic, bebop/swing/jazz/blues lines in the styles of Charlie Parker, Lester Young, Charlie Christian, Bill Jennings, Django Reinhardt and Wes Montgomery to name just a few.
I would highly recommend downloading the lesson materials provided at the link above.. all of the topics covered in this lesson are typed up nice and neat and provided in both guitar pro and PDF formats. Having these to hand whilst following along with the video will certainly make things much easier to absorb.

Beautiful! ????????♥️???????? I love how you're not just playing over the changes, you're playing THROUGH the changes! Sounds great
Thanks Alex. I've got a lot out of that lesson. Love it when you do a Jazz blues study. ????
thank u !!!very!!!
Very clear and helpful, thanks
Top class. Thanks so much.
When you go 4 minor to the 1 are you thinking of the 4 minor more like Dorian or melodic minor?
Sounds like St Louis blues? At beginning … my go to song every Thursday evening .. marvellous … I play it on mandolin.. I need to switch
I think you are an excellent teacher of the lead lines, melody and fills, but you name your chords quickly like "Amin7" and "C#min7" while you have 3 fingers visible on your fret board. I struggle to follow what you're doing with rhythm chords in those elevated 5th, 6th, and 7th positions. Thanks.
Excellent site for guitarists all levels , great examples which include theory and help in picturing whats going on, its thoroughly enjoyable (with challanges) , which makes the lessons fun!
Very like yours video's.Thank you for shearing music!
I could listen to you all day! I’m considering joining your patron ,but being in my early 70,s I’m not sure how much I can take advantage of your great styles.
Wonderful exposition of the triads and beyond
Love this Alex! Normally I already given up. Thanks a lot????????
Alex, this is a great video. It helps a lot. I have a question about your guitar… I also have a ES125 from 1946 (which is my birth year) and you have a great sound. What sort of strings do you use ? Flat or wound ? Do you have any recommendation for this guitar ?
Excellent lesson! Thanks so much for this.
Toe-tapping guitar solo! Love it, and your guitar! Gracias!
Thank you Alex another great lesson; not only licks, but you rightly emphasize the thought process (triads/chord tones/extensions) that formulate the licks and phrases. This moves us forward much more thoroughly than just lick examples.
Excellent lesson, Alex!! I have played a lot one similar solo you played on a IG video some time ago, so this lesson is perfect for me!! Thanks for sharing!
This lesson is Gold, Alex!! You are a very good and patient teacher!! Thanks for sharing it!!
Alex, you are an excellent teacher. The step by step process makes it easy to practice. Your continued reference notes and chord construction perfectly reinforce music theory. Thank you!
I like it! very cool lesson!
What’s the chord progression? Or did I miss a lesson. Thanks
