Trying to improvise in a polyphonic way is challenging.![]()
I heard some of the greats live, including Wes (L5), Chuck Wayne (D'A), Joe Pass (boutique archtop, can't remember which), Pat Metheny (playing a 175), Mundell Lowe, George Benson, Barney Kessel (CC...
You should absolutely not be mad at theory because the vast proportion of musicians are dependent on it to play competently lol. Further, it improves your music when you apply it well. However,...
If it was Rudy's then the archtop that they showed you with the very beautiful staircase tailpiece may have been the guitar I recently posted for sale, a DJArgus Excel AEX, which was exclusive to...
Actually, the photo was entitled "A Good Day In Harlem" until someone pointed out there were no guitarists present.
“Generillisimo, we have not found that Morton Feldman fella. Will this do???”

It's confusing because apparently there were April Fool's rumours around this story but it seems that it's true John Coltrane Discography John Coltrane Sextet John Coltrane, soprano, tenor...
I think it is more who showed up rather than the position of guitarists at the time. By 1958 Tal Farlow, Jimmy Rainey, Chuck Wayne, Mundell Lowe, Johnny Smith, Sal Salvador, etc., were all prominent...
I don’t mean to funny but I wonder if that guy could actually write a song? Maybe; maybe not. That channel classic example of ‘theory as music appreciation’ which is something totally different...
Ah since kids were being sent off to fight the Cong in Vietnam--might as well be able to buy a drink while in the Saigon bars, right? It was actually increased state-by-state beginning in 1980 or...
One of my students offered to do the hoovering the other week.
