THE Minor 251 Lick (Bill Evans Style)

In this piano tutorial, I break down an insane minor 251 lick from a Bill Evans solo. You can use it anytime you are improvising over a minor 251. We will be learning it in the key of D minor.

It makes use of chord tones, approach patterns, recurring melodies, swing feel... and it is just awesome!
