上一集已經講到了如何把head練好。
這一級我們要試著把已經練得很熟的head放到不同調中。
這首曲子很適合做這樣的練習，
因為旋律很好記，也很有旋律性（melodic）
當你在演奏不同調時，專心聽，我們的目標是耳朵在solo的時候要聽得到Melodic的東西，
把簡單的東西演奏得好很重要，尤其是要能夠solo很有旋律線條，有意義的句子。
這個練習可以幫助你聽得到簡單又有旋律線條的即興句子。
你的任務是轉到不同調，試著solo一個chorus，然後head out。
在不熟悉的調中，bridge演奏chord outline就好。主要是還是要聽到chord changes。
不要忘記keep swing, keep the tempo。
今天要講的是oleo
首先第一個步驟就是要練好head（主旋律）
看似很簡單，但是其實蠻困難。
要不失去swing，並且對到節拍器，其實不容易。
這也可以是個很好的對節拍器warm up的小練習。
你的任務就是要開啟節拍器，試著練習好幾個星期，用不同的速度（tempo）練。
像是很快的速度其實難度很高，但是這個練習會對你很有幫助。
Was trying to find some other ways to play the harmony on this common tune. I think I stole a lot from Bill Evans, I've been listening to him a lot lately.
Does anyone have any advice for publishing your original music? I've been doing a fair amount of composing lately for a CD project I'm working on, and I was wondering how the process works, is it worth doing, etc.
A little while ago Mike Pinto mentioned the benefits of publishing your tunes and I looked into the company he's with, but they seem to require more stature in the industry than I have. Does anyone have suggestions that will work for people with day jobs?
Any advice appreciated :-). Thanks in advance.

Thought this might be inspiring. Some great lines to steal!
Are you sick of rhythm changes yet? Here's some relief if you are!

The last mini-lesson I posted on VW seemed to raise more questions than it solved... Ok that is cool, the idea is to explore many things and try to get better. We all need to do this, and it never stops as a player. It's a constant journey.
In the Coltrane lick I had been working on, I suggested a double sticking that some of you pointed out was actually a triple sticking. So I had to look into that, cause I wasn't even slowing it down enough to realize I was doing that, and upon further review, it is not something I would actually recommend doing.
If you are busting ass on rhythm changes but need a little break, here is something to clear the head with. This, however, can be applied to rhythm changes.
Watch the video first, then read further...
I didn't discuss it in the video but check it out....
