I finally got around to the the "Blue Bossa" and enjoyed it thoroughly. I like how smoothly the lesson unfolds to reveal the jazz way of thinking. Thanks again, Paul!!

So glad you enjoyed it. I just wish it didn't take me so long to get out each new podcast.
Best wishes from a sunny London

:idea: Blue Bossa is a really good place to start in terms of Harmony with LEGO bricks:

Hover (Im); Hover (IVm)
"Backslider" join (from IV to I)

Cadence (minor)
"Woody" join to key a semitone up

Cadence (major)
"Downwinder" join to key a semitone down

Cadence (minor); Launcher to start again

Now you can play it in any key!
