Great lesson as always The harmonic analysis is especially useful Looking at chords this way is not something I'm accustomed to doing on my own Your chart diagrams are simply priceless tyvm

[jacklatou]

Excellent lesson for a classic tune! Congratulations

[PatP]

Thank you so much Andy, I really appreciate the harmonic analysis - it is so helpful and valuable!

I grew up loving this song, and even named my Dad’s first boat “Sunny” after it. It was yellow ❤ now all these years later, and having YOU teaching it… it’s Faith and Fate this has happened. I’m so excited to elevate my guitar playing to where I can finally start feeling like a jazz musician again. I’m new to guitar but not jazz, and this just hits so many emotions for me.

Thanks for this lesson Andy, I appreciate it

[ilangoramachandran]

Very good concept: jazz theory combined with a song. Very well explained. Thank you, Andy!

[johnpritchard]

Clearest explanation of the changes on YouTube!!! Huge thank you for this. I couldn’t work out the Bmin11😂.

[MatthewJBell]

Such a fantastic number. Looking forward to spending some time with this.

[blue_jazz]

Brilliant lesson, thank you. Particularly the evolution of the jazz chord progession from the baic ‘pop’ chords. Will try this on my concertina !

[seansullivan]

Great lesson, always so helpful and straight to the point

[tmacdaddy]

Wonderful, straight forward lesson thanks 🙏

[domb]

Similar to what everyone else is saying... Great lesson (as usual) and the harmonic analysis very interesting! Thanks you.

[TheRealSandleford]

Nice Andy. Makes me think of Blue Bossa... except the key change is a little different I think the major is not the 4 chord in that. Searched and found you did a lesson on it... well the Db if tri and 7 could be the 5 so when the Db goes to the 2 chord the Db#9 is pretty cool after it

[artivrolijkekunst]

Hey hello Andy. Great lesson! A real classic song. Isn't this song another example where the melody is mostly coming from the pentatonic scale?

[PatrickTengmusic]

How do I purchase your guitar tabs for Sunny and other jazz standards 🙏 I need the link please

[John-sivs]

thanks for the chord sheet & chart the others on youtube are too damn cheap to give it for free they all want $5.00 + cash for just one tune . they are just greedy like pigs
