Just In Time (Maybe we should do a pop up class on it)

I'm working very hard on this tune and thinking about it.

Here's a decent version. I work on trying to have good time and being articulate. I think for the most part I am. At the end of the tune on the tag I don't feel great about it, but I imagine if I didn't say anything nobody would notice. But I notice!

I try to play lines and focus on putting the harmony in the line and then not having to do so much with the accompaniment.

I say let's work on this tune. I'll get Behn and Oliver to post lessons on it also.
