Here's some tips on soloing in 5/4

I like this tune by Wayne Shorter, love the way he keeps it simple but at the same time keeps you on your toes, I have made some mistakes but I wanted to post anyway I have not done an outro so it breaks after 3 choruses, comments are welcome
What is the best software to use to fade out etc...?

David's music is on my laptop that I travel with, so whenever I travel, I check him out. I dig this cat. He really plays great and interesting. If you guys get a moment check him out and let me know what you think.

Here's some ideas for comping in a slow 5/4.

I have a great idea for an article for PAS. What do you guys think?

The top 10 or 20 or 25 must have CDs for a vibe player. We would pick them and vote on them and write reviews on them. Every one who writes a short review would get credit.

But we'd have the must have CDs for young and up and coming vibe players.

just thinking out loud, what do you guys think?? And what do you think Ed?

I always thought that working on something harder than something else also helped making that other thing easier. I thought practicing in odd times would help me play in even times better. That was part of my motivation of learning odd times.

I think you should work out a few tunes and call them on gigs and try them out. Get used to playing in 5. I figured that playing 3 and 2 would help you're playing in three as well as playing in 5!

And odd times can be really fun and liberating. All of a sudden you're feeling comfortable in an odd time, that's a good feeling!
