"My good friend Jeff Gardner has outdone himself again! Besides being one of the great pianists of our time, a brilliant composer, Jeff has released a series of books over the years that are important to the development of every pianist, non-pianist, and educator. His latest book, Jazz Lines, breaks down how to apply licks to address different harmonic progressions, and help the beginning or advanced improviser retain and expand their ideas. I highly recommend this book for all serious students and educators!"
