I love this tune. I used to accompany a friend on clarinet on it before he passed away. The Duke Robillard version that the OP links to is really nice.
Here’s my attempt on solo guitar. I’ve been doing a lot more gardening than practicing lately, so it’s rough. I’ll try to work on finger mechanics and clean it up.
It's been awhile since i last logged in here, but there's a strange synchronicity in that i was just playing

And then I check it contextually.. I mean hoe the chords and intervals tune being played in turnarounds in...
My first guitar teacher said to me "It's usually safe to use the term melodic minor, people know exactly what you mean in a jazz environment, but sometimes you might come across people who feel smart...
I like volume pedal for the hands free changes in volume and because because an active pedal change the tone less than the volume knob. Must have a knob to set minimum volume though - I think it's...
I feel you. Mine is terrible. I never even tried to learn tunes by ear until I started taking lessons with Christian and he encouraged me to do it. This last week I was tasked with learning the B...
When i was hunting for a blonde JS i ended up buying a 76 which is great, actually my main giging guitar right now. At the time (around 2017) there were quite a few blondes from the seventies around....
