       It's an online lesson site. It seems to be mostly focused on the
       nuts and bolts of playing jazz.  One thing I like is that it has
       beginner, intermediate and advanced  lesson content.   It was
       $240 for one year with unlimited access to all their online
       lessons.
       Right now I'm working on an intermediate lesson on "When I Fall
       In Love" , specifically, scales and modes that can be played
       over the chord changes.
       Not really of much interest for a rock & roller,  but I consider
       myself a musical omnivore.  I figure the cost is actually cheap
       when compared to the cost of a personal music lesson - generally
       somewhere around $100 for an hour.

       I think that's great Dave. Music is all you do now, so it's
       money well spent. I'm sure you'll get your money's worth out of
       it. [emoji1474]

       I'm still going to the local jazz jamsessions
       not every week, more like once a month
       but I check the playlist (they always do standards), and try to
       learn chords and theme and then for the solo I'll just improvise
       :P

       Anything that takes you out of your comfort zone musically is a
       good thing for you. Exercises and builds musical muscles.
       I say that, while never really doing it personally.
       ;D
