This lesson was influenced by working with a great young bass player Dezron Douglas.

Here's a good performance of David Friedman's new etude 'Texas Hoedown'.

I'll buy and send a copy to the first two people who want it and agree to learn it and post a video within 2 months of their performance. (Must be a subscriber)

Here's some thoughts on chord-melodies. I was talking about these in a lesson and thought I'd pass them on to you.

The challenge is for any person who's new to chord-melodies to record and post one.

I'll also post some writting examples below.

A buddy of mine sent me this thesis. Someone analyzed a Burton solo.

Looks interesting. I got dizzy looking at.

haha...just kidding!!

Ok, now serious.

For all of you just sitting around feeling sorry for yourself that you're not working hard enough according to Tony's standards... Let's do the following...

Record and post a version of you playing a duet with tony's 'Have You Met Miss Jones' duet file -> See the 'check this out link'.

Let's see how many of us post a recording by coming friday. That's a hard deadline! After that we can compare and discuss the tune and all relating or non-relating matters...

Ok, so who's in?

Meeting in Paris, David Friedman - marimba, Jean-Charles Richard - sax soprano, Philippe Macé - vibraphone

So I have been listening just recently to the new Christian McBride project, "Kind of Brown," featuring Warren Wolfe on vibes. I had heard about Mr. Wolfe through the grapevine, and then was duly impressed by some of his other recordings. I have to say that there is some very fine "kick-ass" playing on this CD, and I highly recommend it. Warren is already an important voice on the instrument. I do not know him at all, but I assume that a number of you do...I know he was up at Berklee.

This is a great Gary solo on a blues!

Hi there,

I'm practicing the Blues Etude (link below) but I have a problem to analyze bar 35. The chord on beat 4 is a bII9, a substitute dominant, right? But what function is a f d bflat a c on beat 1 - 3 in measure 35? Any help, please? Is it kind of a V13? Any help?
Thanxalot,
Wuestentrommler
