Anyone out there have BIAB with the real instruments?
Can you send me an mp3 of My Romance maybe about 6 choruses?
I just need it to sound good. Are the drums swinging? Maybe no piano, just drums and Bass?
If you can, leave a comment here so that everyone doesn't do it.
Thanks!
I broke down My Romance into sections. Try this approach, take little chunks of the tune and work with them. I have six sections below that cover each little part of the tune. See can understand the harmony of each one of these sections, and be able to move the harmony around in different keys. The idea is that you study one little section and that section makes sense to you, and then he studied the next, and then when you put it all together you you understand the whole tune.
Tony demonstrates different approaches to playing over rhythm changes.
We saw a lot of this at the workshop in Delaware.

This is likely to be old news for most on the site but hopefully helpful for those who haven't worked through these yet. I don't think I mentioned very clearly that you can replace the fifth of each voicing with the 6th for more color or variation.
This is a beautiful lesson by friedman. Wait until you hear this solo! It's an incredibly melodic solo, which is the point of the lesson. So Watch: Lesson: Learn! And if you have any questions, ask David!
This vid cuts in in the beginning. But listen to it and check out the end. This is where we first worked on Freedom Jazz Dance as a blues.
We were winging it. You can hear the first couple choruses where we're getting the form of the blues straightened out! Funny huh? That's cool to me, figuring something out between us without words.
It's funny who you meet online! I met a person on youtube (Holyhell937)(Does this mean there are another 936 people who have used Holyhell as their youtube name???). He seems to be in high school, or junior high. I dug our brief dialogue online on the youtube page. He ended by saying, 'Hey why don't you write a piece for me to play in school'. I told him to subscribe to the site that there are plenty of pieces there to play!
Then on the way home from my dad's I listened to this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_AFU7qDitTc
