Hey Folks,
I rarely post these sorts of things, but was inspired to learn this Mulgrew Miller solo this summer. I just love his lines, phrasing, and where he places things in the pocket. He swung.

Hi guys! I've been working on some ideas on how to work on the altered scale using open and closed. There is a pdf attached with the exercises I demonstrate in this video. Let me know what you think and if you guys have any other ideas!

by Bill Evans

I’m amazed by how few views this Gary Burton solo has on YouTube, given his incredible clarity, restraint, command, and beauty with one of Bill Evan’s more (if not most) challenging ballads. The vibe sound is, well, gorgeous!!

Hymne a L'amour - simply beautiful song sung and made famous by the great French vocalist Edith Piaf. The lyrics were written by Piaf and the music by Marguerite Monnot. It was written for the love of her life, the French boxer, Marcel Cerdan. On October 28, 1949, Cerdan was killed in a plane crash on his way from Paris to New York to come to see her. She recorded the song on May 2, 1950.

I'm using some reharm here and there as well as a modulation for the last A section of the song.

So it's pretty funny to me. I was messing around with this Cannonball Adderley tune, "Things Are Getting Better". I was recording it to listen back and check my stuff out. I got done and thought, 'that wasn't so bad, I should post it'. I listened back a little bit later and forgot my dryer was on. I'm so used to it, I don't think about it.

I practice in my basement, which is also my studio for making audio and video for Vibesworkshop. It's great. Not a big deal, but I wish the washer and dryer was somewhere else!

“In Your Quiet Place” by Keith Jarrett. One of my favorite songs from Keith. I remember working on it quite a bit during lessons way back with Gary. Of course, the recording of this song by Keith and Gary is a favorite as well as Gary’s solo renditions. Lately I’ve been listening to Keith’s version from a live concert recorded in 1975 in Munich. It is brilliant. I posted the audio clip on my page last week. I noticed some of the changes are a little different than the changes in the Real Book. I’m using here what Keith used from that Munich concert.
