I tried to register, but you come to a point where you need a Swiss phone number to verify. You can’t continue without…

Think 3/4 over 4/4. That should unlock it. EDIT: I should rather say: Trying to see the 3/4 phrases against 4/4 measures will help you understand the tune. "Thinking 3/4 over 4/4" is easier said...

JGO Virtual 'Bluez' Jam (Round 3) - Straight No Chaser

You got me there! Yeah, had to turn pages. I'm the last one in my Band still playing from paper, but I think I'll be making the switch to an Ipad soon. My guitar is actually a Baton Rouge, but I...

Rosewood vs Maple fretboard head to head - There's a difference

It is a lot like playing the lottery, you never know what you're gonna get, so gambling addicts should probably stay away.

Here's That Rainy Day - Jazz Ballads by Jeff Arnold Tune #1

Appears to be a German site, but what makes you think only certain nationalities can register, was your registration rejected? Of course if you don't read German, it will be slow going. Just a...

Anyone from Switzerland here?

What argument? Nothing to do with me. I repeat, I'll say what I want. It's impersonal, it's solely about the music and they're just thoughts. Starting some personal attack is stupid and not my...
