This is from a gig at Rudy's jazz club in Nashville a few years ago. Burning tempo and a hundred chords. No way I could memorize the changes - had to read the chart. Bass player is not too shabby.

My goodness, that was very very well done! Thank you for posting that. I am going to download those lessons as I've been wanting to try to get a grasp on that style of playing.

Merry Christmas!
