Years ago I found Jim Ferguson's books on comping and soloing helpful in making the transition from folk/country blues to jazz blues, along with a lot of careful listening to the masters. No idea...
"the note I want" What is the nature of this note (note name, scale degree, chord tone/extension/alteration, relative interval, fingering, pitch, other)? How far in advance do you know the note...
