Learn another one of Ed's great pieces.

Look under 'Check This Out' for the link to the PDF of this lesson.

Joe Locke rockin' some Billy Joel and talking about choosing tunes.

Here's Behn's chord melody of Bye Bye Blackbird. The videos are coming, but meanwhile practice his chord melody.

Again I left the chord symbols out, you can put them in. That's your homework assignment. :-)

This is a great lesson. Just go through all the tunes you know see where you can put this. Pull out the real book, whatever!

Also check out Behn's comping. He plays really clear rhythms IMHO.

I think it is very hip what Ty says here about playing, especially the part at the end about life experience.

That's his new quartet playing in the background. Germaine's tap dance is integrated into the music as a drum. She also sings, but when she is tapping, it's two drummers, bass and vibes. ..and the other drummer is Doc Gibbs, who is totally awesome!

hi all,

this one of many takes of the nearness of you (my favorite ballad). except for the beginning i tried not to play it as a ballad and tried more to improvise with the theme and to do some kind of stride. sorry for the poor sound but i´s only the cams mic, cause i move to another flat this week and my recording stuff is already packed.
