I’ve been away so couldn’t do Stablemates or Bags Groove, however I have done this one before!
-
Actually, I wanted to see what you'd do with Bag's Groove! There's still time...
Not that your Hot House isn't superb, naturally
-
I found this video, which might help those who want to program their BIAB program. The song was not in either of my Real Books.
I wish I had time to delve into this one. It looks like a great song for folks like me to learn. Alas, I will but listen to the various performances.
Thanks, ragman.

This is a contrafact of “What Is This Thing Called Love". So, while the head is obviously pretty hard, blowing should be familiar. So don’t be scared to jump in.

I do remember the head took ages to learn on the guitar.

Have this, for what it's worth!
-
But, don't forget, you're supposed to do it like this. Let's go!
-
Two takes in one.
A bit too much 6th pentatonics? I still practice and put it everywhere.
-
^ Sounds good! Good momentum with the 8th notes. And I liked the pentatonics. Were those the ones you were sequencing in 2 note patterns? That sounds good I have been thinking of working on that. Thinking of what to use for short pattens and what I should use, thought maybe start with pentatonic.

When I first started practicing jazz in earnest like 10 years ago, this tune (What Is This Thing Called Love actually) was one of the first tunes I worked with. I return to it every so often, but it’s been a couple of years since I’ve really played it. So this will be a good gauge of my progress over the past 10 years.

The same thing with half-diminished obviously. ( from 3th )
Theoretically, it looks ok, but i have to play it to make it sound good.

Same with the Dm 6th pent: D F G A B: which is pretty well D melodic minor (G Lyd Dom).
What I'm saying is that the use of the minor 6th pents is a shorter way of playing melodic minor. Not that there's anything wrong with it, of course, it just gives you the same basic notes and sound.

Everything is very simple mathematically.
The trouble starts when I want to use it in real time. There has to be some judgment mechanism in the mind that says ‚Ok that's good enough’
The truth is, the more combinations I practice, the better these choices are. So I go back to the point - laziness and motivation.
-
Yes, not exactly :-)
I don't know about laziness, etc, but what you play sounds pretty good to me!
-
The head to Hot House is the best textbook I ever saw on playing on altered Dom’s and minor ii Vs
-
Not sure. It's a crazy tune. If you take out the passing notes it sounds a bit like this

This tune doesn't need to be played fast to be nasty. Watch till the end—they literally bring the house down.

It's been a long week+ ! My turntable died, my espresso machine died, and I spent an entire day on the road last week to buy a fine archtop that turned out to need frets and other work despite a desciption of "so little wear it looks like it's never been played".
I just fixed the espresso machine, so it's time to relax before opening the 'table. Here's my simple and traditional take on Hot House. I wrote my own head, since the guidelines say "Play the head, or not. This is about improvisation. Don't post a transcription. Don't work out a whole solo. Don't spend all week making a solo guitar arrangement. Just put down your phone and do a take. Keep it fresh". I'm tryin' !
