This is the maniac you were trying to replace. Apparently he was the organist with Roy Buchanan in the 70s. I saw Roy Buchanan around this time at the Newport in NY Jazz Festival, on a bill with...
Oh yeah, of course, that's all priced in. What I meant was scatting and playing the melody while also playing the chords underneath. Having a bit of fun the past week working on this-- it will help...
Actually it wasn't Dick Heintze - who i briefly studied piano with. I'm thinking it was don or billy hancock or something like that. The brunch was the best place to hear him because it was during...
Chord patterns... As far as I understand Regspeak, you basically got two kinds...those right in the tunes and those that are implied...or can be imposed. So a written chord pattern would be...
I’ve gotten more compliments on my sound with my Blu 10 than anything else. Even with a very cheap solid body! I just ordered a Bud 6 for the ultra portability and the second channel.
Correction, I said that the SS deluxe cherry baritone had humbuckers. It has the same P 90s as the maple natural. The cherry is mahogany, laminate rather than maple. D’ Angelico has another baritone...
That is a beaut! You are a long way from Dave…probably best you don’t live near there, this might become habit-forming.

This reveals another gap in my knowledge. How are chord patterns crafted? I know about a few devices: 1. different inversions 2. harmonized scales 3. tritone subs 4. sequences I've heard...
The sheets of sound comparison makes sense, he's hugely into Coltrane. But more so the harmonic stuff, rhythmically he's often pretty locked into 8th notes. But that's part of what makes his...
In the acoustic flat picking world many of us use a larger triangle shape pick (see below) with a thickness of 1.25mm and up. But when playing electric I (and others) almost always go to 351 shape...
Holy Moley! That's a fascinating story, and it all checks out in the book about him I'm reading. He was treated as God in DC, so it doesn't surprise me how his rabid fans treated you. From all...
Dang. Yeah that’s super hip. I really enjoy these sounds and I’ve heard him talk before about similar things with triads, like chaining together arpeggios (maybe over a C, you could play an E...
