I would like to hear some insights into playing over minor 11 chords where the progression moves by a 5th. (Em11 > Bm11 > F#m11 > C#m11 > Abm11 > Ebm11 > Bbm11 > Fm11)

How would or do you get your head around this pattern?

Also your thoughts on voicings for this chord type would be appreciated for comping and soloing. Those changes are from One of the tunes I'm working on: Joe Lockes' Tarzani.

Andrea was in a music school with adults. They were learning Giant Steps. He couldn't grasp the theory, so he just went home and learned it by himself. Now listen.

Any this story comes from John Daly. (John do i have it right?)

Fresh from this morning, an exercise in cool jazz. A long-distance session with my pal J.B. I sent him the vibes-bass track, he added the piano, and then I added the drums.

Chris Farr - sax
tony miceli - vibes
tom lawton - piano
micah jones - bass
jim miller - drums

Hi, Can someone tell me about the Adams SV1 Soloist Vibraphone, 3.1 octaves? is the frame easy to disassemble and re-assemble for gigs? Thanks, J Maffia

Interesting because we've been talking about playing solo.

Denny is also a psychiatrist and a great pianist. He wrote the tune in the Real Book 'Quiet Now'.

Here's a quick lesson on stuff I'm working on. Just passing it on for whatever it's worth!

Hi everybody. It's been a long time, I know. I went into hibernation for a couple of months in order to study that book by Hal Galper, Forward Motion. I did some artwork (pastels, a real cool hobby)as well and so I lost touch with all of you guys. I'm really ashamed. Here is some Body and Soul I played yesterday, over a comping tape that my piano-player friend JB Mira made for me (bass and dms are Real Tracks). Here it is. I promise to come back on the site more regularly.
