Bee, every thing in that post makes perfect sense to me, then coming from Dennis G it would. I've got a list, it's in my head but it's a list. My personal problem is having the discipline to stick to it, so I'm like a kid in a sweet shop trying every tune I come across.
So last year I picked a tune to learn with the intention of sticking to it which more or less I have.
The tune I picked is paul desmonds " take five" on the chromatic, I picked it because its fast and I'm not a fast plater so not easy for me.
It seems I have to leave this now try to post a bit more later

Back again, kind of lost the thread of what I wanted to post.
Take five is coming along quite well I can play it through at a reasonable, for me, pace but can't do the impro bits. Can't keep up with Brubeck yet but it's getting there.
I only play for my self so I never bothered with backing tracks, not that I'd know where to get them. This I now think was a mistake for a load of reasons so lately I've started trying to play along to you tube vids. I'm having trouble trying to listen to what they are playing and remembering what I'm meant to be playing but it's coming slowly with practice. Sadly my playing sessions have gone the same way as my fitness regime very sporadic, I shall get it back on track soon.
Thanks once again for a good post wworth reading.
Keep safe in these strange times, the death toll here in the UK keeps going up at a horrific rate, being an unsociable old git has some advantages
