Hi everyone,

I've been starting to notice more and more people posting and asking questions. Please keep it coming!

When you post questions, this is a very big help for Tony, myself, and the other guys posting lessons on the site. Sometimes, it's hard for us to come up with ideas for lessons, and many times, the questions in posts gives us ideas for topics.

Even if you feel shy and don't want to post your playing, ask questions! This is a big help for us! Thanks!

Hello!
This is part two. In this lesson I choose some target notes and I have to fill the lines between the target notes.

Hello everyone,
This is part 1 lesson about building lines. The whole idea is that using limitations in your solo is a goos way to get free!!!
In this lesson I start my lines with root, the third, the fifth and the seventh of the chord. So, if one bar is cmin7 I start with the root the first note and then at the second bar I play the note d (since my chord is d half and at the same bar the note g when it comes to g7).

Hope you find this interesting
thanks

After a brief hiatus, I finally threw together a quick audio lesson for you guys.
Simple ideas about how I think of Minor 7 b5 chords, Minor 2,5's, etc.
Let me know if this makes sense or needs further clarification.

Here is a take from tonight's practice session. I am using the changes from the Real Book, with descending bass line. The intro is an idea take from John Piper's under water echo technique that he did in Dolphin Dance. Left hand comp contains 4ths and tri-tones. In the second chorus I tried doing a Freddy Green 4 strokes to the bar comping with LH.

This is my first assignment from Tony, let me know what you think!

A little break from the TOTM, but I started talking about this in the intros video for How Deep Is The Ocean.

I think this is an important subject that some of you may find helpful!
