I have seen and taken numerous classes with jimmy and his approach and view
is soo black and white and offensive to me. His views on pat metheny made me
want to scream! Jimmy Bruno feels threatened by the thought of music at a
new level. I used to love him..... then i just started to see a lot of
shallowness in his playing. Im sorry if im being to blunt here... but these
are my feelings. His technique has suffered greatly also... i asked what he
prctices to keep in shape... he replied " well, i dont feel the need to
practice anymore". It was really evident when he was showing us scales. He
would also play an exercise as fast as he could just to impress the class.
He kept messing up! Not everyone is perfect, but thats why theres practice!
anyone else agree??
hit me back!
