Quick question and simple but wanted input:
Let's say I am soloing over F sharp minor seven flat five and one of my solo choices I came up with is: whole step, half step pattern. i was thinking f# minor in dorian, but didn't like emphasizing the c#..yeah i am a geek.
Cool about whole half thing?

this was a wonderfull gig with Legendary Percussionist Gerardo Velez ( founding member of Spyro Gyra) at the blue note hawaii .. the amazing Bonny B was on Drums ...

Does anyone know about Saito vibes? One for sale here that a young student of mine is interested in. Motor not working, C to C (which I don't have a good feeling about) and $900. If the bars are terrific, maybe they're worth it. But are they more or less like Jenco?

Here's a mega etude. Your job is to enter the chords and study each bar by writing all the alterations in. Is it aN F7b9? F713, F713#9. Look carefully at each bar and study the tune. Then play it. Memorize if you dare.

Ceora has such an optimistic, joyous melody. It was a staple in my repertoire at the hundreds of solo gigs I did at local eateries here in the world class wine country north of San Francisco.

I'm sure this tune has been a TOTM at one time or another. It's one of those that you never get tired of and again and again.

Check out a great collaboration between American and Greek musicians creating something unique.
