Thanks Juan
Thinking of chord progression while playing lead is really important to play "smart and smooth",
not only in Jazz but in every genre actually. 
Juan M. Valero25th January 2008really cool lesson !!!! I can see a lot of work in this lesson, not only in technique but also in harmony and always thinking in the BT chords.

shredmandan24th January 2008Wow
As always amazing!This is a really great lesson for people like me that are realy into other styles like metal,because learning something this different from what your used to playing opens up new doors of what your own style can be when mixing everything you know.Definatly gotta learn this one!

- My notes
Hello GMC! It's time for last lesson from Jazzy Swing package, this one is sort of hardest, Advanced level. But don't afraid, there are few bit faster runs inside, rest of it might be played by almost every mid-ranged player.
So as we know, it's in key of D major, so D major scale is what we use the most plus neighbor notes
and some "out" of scale notes, guided by chord progression.
Have fun with it, shout if you need any help!! :)
