Let's Learn Songs: "Air Mail Special" — Video Jam Version

Learn the hard-swinging jazz classic "Air Mail Special" with Frank Vignola.

As legendary guitarist Bucky Pizzarelli once said, "Everything you need to know about improvisation is in the songs."

"Air Mail Special" is a high-energy swing-era jazz classic closely associated with the Benny Goodman repertoire. With its driving rhythm, memorable riffs, and blues-infused swing feel, it's an ideal tune for developing strong jazz phrasing and improvisation. Frank breaks down the chords and melody while helping you strengthen your timing, rhythmic confidence, and ability to create swinging lines over a classic jazz progression.

This Video Jam Version takes you from learning the song to actually playing it with Frank. You'll learn the chord progression, master the melody, and then bring everything together in a Video Jam with Frank, putting the entire song into practice alongside him.
