Here's another track from one of my most favorite bands. My alter ego.

Wow I bet Tarik posting his band singing Johnny Cash Tunes got me into this. Ha Ha Ha Ha.

Now you might think this is corny, however if one of us got into a smoking famous commercial band playing something other than jazz it would do a lot of good for our instrument.

I liked playing in this band and taking the place of the other guitar and trying to fit into that role.

By Lindsay Gilmour And The Organic Planet Band

You know one of my favorite bands I every played with was a folk band. I really miss it. It's kind of cool playing music that's a little more accepted. Did I say a little? A lot.

I love this tune and thought I'd post it. There's one on this CD where I play marimba! I'll post that also.

Since there seems to be some interest in spontaneous playing on the part of several "vibesworkshoppers" I thought I'd include the Generation Band's first live attempt at a free groove piece. It stays pretty much in D minor throughout. The challange is to create interest through interaction, melodic development and rhythmic interplay.

the duet is on the site. it's on the front page at this point.

listened to you more. think about your voicings. make sure the harmony stands out. compare to mine and we can talk next time we have a lesson. off to bed.

I'm working on Dolphin Dance with one of my online private students. I told him I'd do a duet with him. Here's the duet. I figured I'd put it up so anybody else who wants could mess around with it.

I'm not going for concert material here, just having a little fun. Otherwise I'd be there recording for days!

Below is the single part and the single part with a click track.

Take a break, this is really funny.

Here's all the Friedman Dampening and Pedaling vids and audio lessons on the site. This a book all of us should work through and master.

If you play any of the etudes not on the list. Please record yourself and post your performance!

I banged this baby out. Really fast. But it looks ok. Let me know where the mistakes are.

But it's a lesson in drop 2 voicings. Now that I know what drop 2 voicings are I see them everywhere! How about choral writing. Big band charts.

This is a great video of Gary sitting in with a big band in poland.

Thanks to tifoo for finding this.
