I’ll hit both those events. They’re maybe a half hour from home. Thanks!

Monteleone guitar exhibit and Art of the Guitar festival ( 2 separate events)

I always think the same thing. It looks like he just moves his hand up and down the neck and notes pop out. Whatever the technique is, is must be very efficient.

Another interesting point. This is about the time that black musicians started making a concerted effort to reject “jazz” as a label for both artistic and social reasons.** I don’t know enough...

There is a video of Jimmy Bruno playing over Bbmaj7 using chord tones (maybe some Bb major scale tones too, I don't recall) and swinging like mad. One chord and only a few different notes in the...

Not really sounding very 'jazzy'. Is it in the playing technique?

I often play at my worst when I know musicians are in the audience. So, as long as I don't know there are (pro) musicians in the crowd I play OK.

A few bad notes or a missed chord

Who knows what they sound like in the room but in the recordings, I thought the Tal sounded best followed by the Golden Eagle. Those two just had a richness that the others didn't have.

Rich Severson’s top 5 guitars.

I don't often listen to Mike Stern, but a couple days ago I put on the Upside Downside album, and that is just an glorious slab of mid-80s NYC muscular jazz-rock fusion! Of course the chorus...
