    I bought this after you showed it in one of your preview video. It seemed to fill a gap that I felt I needed at that point and been working through it since. Its really helped me move forward and using it in to different situations. I had noticed some of the pitfalls you pointed out and tried to sort those out myself, especially picking the ones you like and using it across different tunes/progressions/rhythms/keys.
    This book is great for those starting out on their journey in to Jazz and have had experience in other genre's who are used to learning licks (like me). The big difference is that you need to apply it and work on it and you make that clear and manageable where the book has a gap. Working with a teach would help with that but for those who are working alone should come back and listen to your advice
    Another great video. Thank you and keep up the good work

    I went to GIT and was lucky enough to have Sid Jacobs as a teacher for sight reading classes. Aside from being an absolute genius on his approach to guitar, he was kind, patient, and a hilarious guy to boot. Thanks for making this video, hopefully more people will be learn about the Jazz Titan that IS Sid Jacobs.

    Good video. Important video on how to absorb these things. I spent hours trying to absorb licks playing them in all 12 keys and they didn't come out in my playing. I think applying one lick to 100 tunes is the ticket. Good advice

    Thank you for a great book recommendation… I’m only on page 13 & I really like Sid’s approach… wish I found this years ago ! It unlocks the ‘mindset’ behind bebop line creation in a way that’s instantly applicable to improvising.

    Great stuff, inspiring playing! Thank you!
    I so agree with learning how to do the type of stuff in the first book first before jumping to advance harmonic things. Some online courses I’ve signed up with jump straight to really fancy stuff and many of the community can’t actually pay basics fluently. I agree that that is the wrong teaching approach.
    Are you just sight reading out of the Sid Jacob‘s first book? That is really impressive, and must help you cover a lot of ground, a lot quicker than tab I guess?
    How did you learn to read? Should I do it? There are those Berkeley books, would you recommend those for sight learning to sight ?
    Thank you again for a fantastic channel and videos!

      I learned to read from playing classical guitar. There you will find the best methods for that. Being able to read music is absolutely necessary if you want to study Jazz guitar. Sight reading is a different issue, I can do that pretty well but that's not necessary unless you play in a big band or something.

    I like your comment on doing something creative with those because I listened to like especially younger guys and they all sound the same and they're boring and you know I don't want to play like that I want to sound different you know. They sound competent we've all heard that 1 million times before. And you know this is a central idea and jazz to be your own person to express your own personality and therefore when you're copying licks you're copying somebody else's personality but it's all good learn the licks and then you should forget them

    They probably should be intermediate guitarist before approaching that book. Intermediate. Pentatonic, Major, minor, dominant 7, Maj 7, Min7, Harmomonic minor, Diminished. What I do NOT understand is ‘half diminished’ (Whole tone) and augmented. Although with diminished chords you can move same chord up four frets ascending, descending, works. Augmented seem to work every 5 frets. Before final end root chord?

    I had a quick look inside the book, so I don't know yet the details and quality of the melodic fragments, but your examples sound promising. However, I notice that more than half of the book is about quartal harmony and the other so called advanced stuff. That is too much. I am not ashamed to say that this kind of things is quite useless. It isn't really about quartal harmony, which is an incomplete system with an immature and obscure theory, but about quartal voicings of some chords. I think that when you say that as a student you were not ready for this there is more involved. Some kind of sound intuition. A giant such as Emily Remler clearly said that she could not grasp what Coltrane did. I did study these things in detail only to conclude that I would hardly use them. It is related to the classical intellectual and cold music that emerged in the 20th century, moving away from and destroying tonality. You can read here in the comments that some are attracted by the nice smooth sounding licks you played as an example. Similar, why do so many people like baroque and tonal music? Because it is mature, rock solid, sounds nice and arouses positive emotions. Music is for the heart, not for the intellect.

    The problem is it sounds corny and boring as hell. None of the jazz guitarist I listen to and admire play that dry stuff. It's the wrong vocabulary.
