| Good luck. I'll check out the lesson on "How High The Moon" when you post it.

Well done, very nice 'sober' layout, and a very understandable analysis. I appreciated the reference to the Vanilla book as a jumping-off point and approve, as I personally find the Real books to be too complex for the beginner (and I've been a beginner now for over 40 years, so I should know..!  ).Your English is somewhat better than my Swedish, so please don't be offended if I suggest the term 'clashing' rather than 'classing'; just trying to help.  I'm not a fan of Tzigane 'pumping' (in fact rather allergic to it...), but was enchanted by the bass solo version linked. Thanks for that! All in all, I applaud warmly your effort. Congratulations.

| hello Dad3353. Thanks for your comments, I really appreciate it. Glad you liked the link with Arvell Shaw. I've been playing a lot of jazz manouche, so I can understand your allergic reactions. Some of the rhythm players are really stressing to listen to! But I think this guy, Mathieu Chatelain, is one of the better ones. And thanks for notice the class / clash correction! English is a second language for me, so I've been working hard on the grammar and hope to learn a lot along the way. So any correction in that matter is welcome!
