What Jazz song should I learn at my guitar lesson today?
September 142011
I’ve been playing guitar for a while though I’m still trying to get the hang of Jazz. Last week we went over "Blue Bossa" and the week before that we went over "So What?". What’s a somewhat simple yet fun jazz tune I should ask him to show me today?
Take your pick from this book.
The C Real Book:

I suggest Lullaby of Birdland, Afternoon in Paris, When Sunny Gets Blue, How Insensitive, Scrapple From The Apple, Darn That Dream, Oleo, and All The Things You Are. Some of those are a little difficult to learn, like Scrapple, Afternoon, and Oleo, but great songs to have in your arsenal
