Chord Progressions and Voice Leading Course
This might seem contrary to your question, but it's how I do it. I play the single note melody (without chords). Then I add chords where I think support might be needed, or sound nice. But I don't lose sight that if I was playing trumpet…

Backline Amps: '65 PRRI vs. '68 PRRI
Thank you - Ha! I think I blew the amp out mid-song and walked over to the backline, plugged in, and kept playing. I request (if that's an option) a 90's Deluxe Reverb. Those are robust and loud, and they sound pretty good too. Sometimes…

Thanks Mark - I hear you and It was an adjustment, especially since I've been using the white 358 's since High School. But the difference between the 358 now, and the 358 fifteen years ago, is substantial. I can't identify it exactl…

Julian Lage
Julian is obviously fantastic and I love his playing. I met him when he was a young kid virtuoso in San Francisco. He makes me love jazz guitar and his group is wonderful. Kenny Wollesen!

Hi Danny - Thank you for your interest. For starters, size does matter! Some of the more epic tracks take too much time. Me? I wanted "Like Butter" from Heavy it's going on there.

I appreciate your comment dougg and thanks for the "Trombone.." shoutout. I'm proud of that performance, and that song, and wondered if the title, though in total earnest, was understandably taken as sarcasm. Anyway, thanks again and …

Air travel with your guitar.
