Tomo,
This is an "Autumn Leaves" in Gm I found. Haven't found the regal real book yet. Most of the other Jazz Standard tunes you teach here match up with my 6th Edition of the Real Book.
Autumn Leaves in Gm lead sheet:
Of course, your lesson is here:

Thanks again for teaching us!
Kurt
Thank you for sharing Kurt!
You're very welcome!
This song is very deep!
Tomo
Hi Tomo and friends!
Are these the only 2-5-1 sequences in Autumn Leaves?
Cm F7 Bb
Am D7 Gm
EbMAJ7 seams to connect them.
I think the EbMAJ7 confuses me a little when trying to analyze the song progression.
EbMAJ7 is just the 4 chord of the key of Bb MAJOR or the 6 chord of G minor depending on how you look at it...I think.
Kurt
All the HUGE maple Autumn Leaves at my house our being turned into good smelly compost to help the garden thrive next year.
What a great song!
Great song to practice!
A little bit 3 6 2 5 kind motion too.
EbMaj7 is IV for Major Key (Bb)
bVI for minor key (Gm)
Thank you.
Tomo
Hello!
Practicing these Autumn Leaves triads on string set 1,2 and 3 today.
Cm7-F7-Bb-Eb-Adim-D7-Gm-GMAJ (I forgot to play GMAJ for last measure.)
The faster part at the end was too much for me still. Franz T. Metronome was pushing me. I'll be going back to move forward. Slowing down.
Edited: I just re-discovered Tomo shows these Autumn Leaves triads in this lesson at about 8:00 minutes.
THEORY 11 Minor Triads
Also, Hotel California progression gets wild!
Kurt
What guitar is that? Vintage guitar?
Frantz Metronome sounds so good!
Good job Kurt!
I love those triads on 123 set strings.
For root position, I use 341 fingering.
Very inspiring!
Thank you.
Tomo
Thanks, Tomo!
Not vintage, It is from the year 2020. A real doozy for a year!
I'm playing my 75th anniversary Fender Vintera Telecaster Deluxe "Roadworn". Olympic White. Based on a 1972 Telecaster Deluxe. Alder body. "C" shape roasted neck. 9.5" radius.
There weren't a lot of the 75th Anniversary ones. I like having a tele shape with humbuckers.
Made in Mexico.
"Roadworn" means "Kind of banged around looking". Nice when you do bang it, to not care as much :-)
I call him "El Blanco!"
Buenas tardes Senor Tomo!
Kurtis
Thank you Kurtis for your reply!
I see... Looking so awesome! Very cool guitar!
Nice name!
Abrazos
Tomo
So relax Kurt , the video , Like you performance !
Good job playing simple R 3 7 finger picking! I think you should practice triad inversions on top 123 set strings. Before you improvise something, always you need to prepare a few things.
1) Play R 3 7 simple swing groove strumming or fingerpicking.
2) Practice a melody
3) Practice triad inversions on top 123 set strings.
4) Maybe you can apply a few ii V I jazzy phrase.
So you need to learn, practice and prepare things before you start improvising,
Each step takes a few weeks each. Be patient and keep working! When you are improvising over chord progression. Only do twice (Two times over the form) So it is easy to review it.

Tomo
Nice creativity LTR!
Thank you for the feedback guys.
watching the disney movie Soul and immediately sad/happy. is there a word for that feeling?
-LaVoy
when you say ii V I jazzy phrase what do you mean. like the main melody of autumn leaves and how it fits exactly with the ii V I? this must be why it is step number 4. i will focus on step one.
-LaVoy
Please watch this video for ii V I jazzy phrase.

ii-7 V7 IMaj7....
C-7 F7 Bb Maj7 ...etc.
Don't worry! You can learn things slowly.
