I try to play bebop on 'Hot House'

Very enjoyable as well as being very informative.

I like the "Freddie Green" type chord stabs

Well done.



I'd like to ask, what exactly is the short "Charlie Parker" line quote:

[GuyBoden]

thanks!

oh i didn't use a quote or lick

just delaying the resolution so it doesn't land on beat 1, is all

Ok, I understand now. Thanks.

What's the ratio of licks you know will fit vs improvised top of the head lines?

This sounds really, really, good. Inspiring me to focus a bit more.

Curses... I was hoping for one weird trick to make me sound better.

I guarantee that video is on youtube

[joe2758]

Or wait, did you want the weird trick that:
1. they don't want you to know
2. changed my life/playing forever
3. made it all click
?

[AllanAllen]

I mean, we all know the weird trick is to keep practicing, but that's not exciting.

[joe2758]

and that is why I don't follow you on youtube

F Ab A C Eb G Bb Eb C A D

Is that right? I like that sound.

[AllanAllen]

What's cool, if I play exactly the same fingering with 6th string root, the Ab becomes an A and it still works. A little less mysterious sounding, but perfectly acceptable.
