Thanks for pointing me to this lesson, Duke. The subs are really nice. I have wondered what the piano behind Tiny was doing and certainly some of these must subs be in there.
With respect to soloing, your comment about immersion confirms my suspicions. I have learned six of his solos note for note and probably need to learn six more plus some from aother guys. The problem is these solos are so involved I can only hold a small number in my head.
Great site. I have been exploring Corey's side too. It's is wonderful.
This is a great site and I hope word gets out about it. I will tell my friends.
A few years ago I heard the sounds of Tiny Grimes. Many of his tunes are based on rhythm changes, the form of which facinates me. I have been somewhat succesful soloing over the B parts but am stuck coming up with decent sounding ideas ove the A parts. The last part of the A parts seems to be something like an 8 bar blues (I think). I have learned a number of his songs note for note but the light hasn't gone off yet. Do you have any advice regarding the best way to understand what he is thinking?
I'm working on it and will try to post a video later this week. This is the real deal. Thanks for teaching us!

Thanks Mike. Here is a link to his group, Cats in the Fiddle http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SEQ9Sz0UCl8
He played awesome up tempo I IV V tunes, slow blues (perfectly) and rhythm changes based numbers. The video you found is the best.
