Play with me and switch between IMPROVISATION and COMPING!
BLUE BOSSA is a very famous jazz standard, with an even eights bossanova rhythm, pretty simple but lots of fun to play! We are going to be jamming together on it as if we were in a live situation!!

You can DOWNLOAD my transcription of the theme here:

I suggest you memorize the melody and the chord progression.
You can start playing the theme twice and the first two choruses of solo, then we are going to switch and take a solo for 4 CHORUSES each.
It's really simple: you play the chords, and I improvise.
Then I play the chords and you improvise!
At the end you can play the theme again one more time, repeating the last phrase 3 times as a CODA.

VERY IMPORTANT: pay close attention to the drums, especially when you are comping and I'm soloing, because that's going to be your main reference for the rhythm and for the structure.
This the the most important exercise: always LISTEN!

This interactive play along is best for guitar, piano, bass, vibes, or any other harmonic instrument... But it can also be used by saxophone or trumpet players, clarinet etc. Horns players: you should play a counterpoint line when I'm soloing!
