Day 3: There are additional passing tones in m2, 4, and 6. M2 and 4 have b13 passing tones. This adds some tension to the voicings. As in the other lessons, dampen and create legato transitions between the notes.
If you know of Ray Alexander, please share stories, links, photos with us to build this page. Anything you can think of.
Day 2: You will notice that the voicings are the exact same as day 1, but the major difference here is the dampening. Rather than attacking each new chord, dampen the one note that changes. This will create a nice, legato transition between chords. Observe all dampening and pedal marks.
For this week of 8MAD, we'll be looking at voice leading. I like to think of comping more in terms of voice leading. Rather than just thinking about 4 note voicings, it's also good to think about where each note wants to go. For day 1, observe these simple ii-V-iii-iV voicings. Pedal each new chord.
Merry Christmas!
Hey!
I hope you all doing alright! If you have time check out my solo vibes version on giant steps. It's a live recording from a recent a tour I did in Greece. I miss you guys!
Thanks!

Day 5: The two main tweaks in this lesson are the first and fourth measures. In the first measure, there's a nice surround going into the ninth of the Gm; two half steps below and two above. In the fourth measure, the line descends at the D7, which was ascending in the previous days.
