Ahhh, welcome to the first etude of the Friedman book. You're about to embark on a really great journey!
I spent the day, getting a 7 part series together on intros and endings! This is certainly something every vibe player struggles with at some point in his journey. I don't consider myself great at intros and endings, but I've worked on them.
The series will come up every 2 days with a new episode for the next 14 days! So you can spend the next 2 weeks thinking about intros and endings and practicing them!

Hey everyone, To reaffirm my belief in the value of composing alternate melodies, I'd like to offer up a Free CD of mine to the first two people to post an alternate melody to any of the Tunes of the Month that we have gone over on the site! Post a lead sheet and an audio recording of you playing the melody if possible!
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!
David sent this video over of him demonstrating to a student the idea of playing laid back. So now we get to check it out as well. It's a beautiful solo! I love his lines and his feel! -- Tony Miceli
Here's a lesson plan. you could refer to a beginner, intermediate or advance lesson(s).
Note from Tony:
Something is missing from here:
This is from 2009 and we lose stuff when we convert to new versions of the software.
So.....
Here is the section on chords: This is years worth of work. Find something work on it, do it, play it, then move on to something else. It's the best way to use this site.
