Here is My first lesson on Just In Time.

I think I'll do a video and talk about the tune, but here is my 'Starter Pack'.

Print all this out. Write in the chords. It's so important you write them in as it should make you look at the lines and add upper partials, etc.

Of course you should have melody memorized and the chords memorized.

The solo should be played also without accompaniment. Listen to the song and the chords. Can you hear it in the line and in the solo? The first chorus is just quarter notes. The second is with 8ths and triplets.

Hey everyone,

In this dampening lesson, I explain a technique I call "partial-deadstroking" and its implications for playing ballads, as well as comping on swing tunes!

Hello all,

Just another dampening lesson! This time, we're looking at staccato dampening and dead-stroking, the differences between the two, and where to use them.

Hey everyone,

Here's part 2 of my augmented scale lesson. Let me know if there are any questions!

Hey everyone,

Here's a little lesson on the augmented scale. Let me know if there are any questions! Part 2 coming soon.

I'm working very hard on this tune and thinking about it.

Here's a decent version. I work on trying to have good time and being articulate. I think for the most part I am. At the end of the tune on the tag I don't feel great about it, but I imagine if I didn't say anything nobody would notice. But I notice!

I try to play lines and focus on putting the harmony in the line and then not having to do so much with the accompaniment.

I say let's work on this tune. I'll get Behn and Oliver to post lessons on it also.
