Is it possible in the future to continue the improvisation course?
There is a challenging chord progression that can be found in some tunes. It is not so easy to come up with good things to play on it so maybe it could be an idea to do a lesson with some licks to use for those chords.
The progression I'm talking about is the last part of Django's Tiger:
D,D#,A,F#7
Or in Them There Eyes: G,G#,D,B7
It is also found in "I Can't Give You Anything But Love".

I find it challenging to make good lines that have integrity when playing over those chords. It sounds very copy paste when I try to take fragments of licks and make a line over those chords. To sound good over those chords the line must have a momentum and forward motion.

It would be great if a lesson like that can be considered where Stochelo demonstrates some licks to make that progression.
