Here s tune called Alice In Wonderland played by all the greats. I learned a Joe Pass solo from his performance with Oscar Peterson, took me a week or so to learn it so its my first attempt at playing it with a play along track
That simple. Trade choruses with me on Blue Bossa. Record it and post it here!
Hey all,
I haven't been around here for a while. I know I know, no dessert for me.
I worked on a chapter in Jon Metzger's book called digital riffs.
At the end of each chapter there is a list of some tunes where you can aply the technique. I tried it on Blue Bossa.
I got the playalong track from www.learnjazzstandards.com.
I'm not really happy with the result. You can hear I'm not used to playing with others (even if it is on tape)
The Chief is a really nice tune Pat Metheny wrote and recorded on a CD called Reunion, with Gary Burton. I made this video clip for one of Tony's Vibe Hangs, and decided to post it here too.
I've included links to the Lead Sheet and an mp3 of the Piano Accompaniment to use to practice the tune.
Cheers!

Hi all
Haven't posted for awhile for various reasons. This particular post is for Joe Locke and Philippe Briand. I promised them both and it has taken a little while for me to do this. Enjoy
Vid has flaws and may be out of sync a bit, but that is okey, it is what it is.

p.s. Johan F. found my vid on YouTube and it has only been posted for a couple of minutes. Is that fast or what. Thanks again Johan.
While I am not really a student on the board, I have in the past posted a couple of videos including the infamous Big Sneeze. There was more than the sneeze but that is another story.
I am working on "Somewhere In the Night" by Milton Raskin and Billy May. I first heard it on Cal Tjader's "Soul Sauce" album. See "Check This Out" link. I can't find the sheet music so I am trying to figure out the changes. I stopped listening the recordings and just played some chords that I thought sounded good with the melody. I don't know if I have the changes right or not. I'll work on that more another time. I put these chords into BIAB and started jamming with it. Spent a couple hours tonight. Had fun. Here is a snippet from my jamming and the backing track.
I just got the update to Band-in-a-Box. First impression is that it is really cool (as if it wasn't already cool). As usual, you enter the chord changes and BIAB automagically generates an accompaniment of bass, drums, piano, guitar, strings, etc. With the update, instead of using MIDI instruments, there is an option for BIAB to extract pre-recorded audio of session musicians playing real instruments over certain changes.
