Here is an introduction to our new TOTM, How Deep Is The Ocean. In this lesson, you'll get a basic framework of the harmony. Also, check out the videos Tony posted for the melody, and familiarize yourself with it.

Also, please join us for the class on 1-19-13 at 2pm on livestream. Tony and I will be going into detail about the tune. Even if you don't know it well, don't be shy! Join us, and we promise you will have a better understanding of it!

Alright...it's been two months since I posted any progress on transcribing Burton's solo on Afro Blue and I'm going to post because I need some motivation. I've been working on it on and off, but winter break and traveling for work put a big damper on getting anywhere with this.

Today I decided to record what I have. It's crazy that this is actually double the length of the last time I recorded, because I feel like I've hardly gotten anywhere, and there's still a full minute to transcribe! Aargh!!!

BUT I will soldier on, because it will all be worth it in the end!!!

Hey everyone,
I decided to do a lesson which is about taking part of tunes into your solo. I think that this is a very interesting concept. Ofcorse I am not telling that you should use all the time but when it feel right to you it sounds very nice. The tune I used are

1. the intro from the tune "perdido"
2. the turnaround from the tune "groovin' high"
3. A charlie parker blues( I don't know remember exactly :)"
4. the start of the tune "If I were a bell"
5. the start of the tune "But not for me"

thanks (and I am sorry for my but English)

Any college cats out there that need an internship? There's a lot of research to be done for the site!!! It would be perfect for a grad student that needed an internship. And since we're pretty legit now, this could go on your resume.

Listen to Etta sing it!!!!!

I love it! AND WALTER IS A MONSTER!

Here is the complete documentary!

A Wes tune called Jingles from a concert last April featuring Dan Faehnle-Guitar (Diana Krall), Bobby Floyd-Organ (Ray Charles), Tony Franklin-Drums and me on vibes.

I had a goal of posting five etudes this summer and didn't finish it, but I want to get back into them now. Tear it apart please David! :)
