VERY NICE SOUND. CONGRATULATIONS

[gingervytis]

One of the many things I have tried to learn from your excellent videos is the concept of answering the right hand by playing a solo line in the left. Thank you.

Do u learn this song by ear or leaf sheet

[Snarician]

Those grace notes brighten my day.

[theinkbrain]

this does everything music should do  - takes you away and brings you back - but to a different place. thanks a million. you lifted my spirits and now they dont want to come down.

[halloichbinderhannes]

hi, do you have any sheet music of what you are playing here?

[mihmus]

Chick's straight 8's is something terrific... It has some deep energy and Chick's 8's are absolutely different that anyone's straight 8's as for me.

He is biggest influence for me.

Thanks for posting his tune! It's realy difficult to play and you do it very good!

Good swingin', good playin'! Only lost the rhythmic pulse a couple times, and that may have been me.

[p1anosteve]

When I was listening to this it occured to me me that it sounded a bit like Shearing. He is a fan of Powell of course and uses many of the devices you used, including straight eights. Thanks for explaining what is such a subtle but effective device.

[nmcq333]

Thanks for the bit at the end, and reminding us that straight 8's are O-K. The comparison -- complete with "in-between" -- says more than volumes of texts. I play with a bunch of swing-8s-or-burn-the-heathen types and tend to lose my perspective on what I naturally prefer and know to be O-K -- straight 8s (or at least pretty close.)

Also, is that Steinway S? I have a 1929 S and am interested in knowing if I'm hearing one well recorded (which it is) or if it's something else.

thx

Neil

Stunning as ever !!!!!!!

[1979saxman]

I've heard of people playing behind the beat for most "jazz" tunes, but never ahead of the beat. As for my playing, I play saxophone and while I have a huge amount of jazz theory knowledge and I think an adequate amount of technique for never being formally taught, what would you say would be the most effective and efficient method for learning jazz time and feel?

[7notemode]

@1979saxman Learn to sing great horn solo's from albums!! I say something about that on the How to Swing tutorial.

[1979saxman]

@7notemode that's just the thing, though. I have learned the solos from many Parker transcriptions, note for note, along with others from the greats. I go to record myself though and I'm defintely not satisfied with the phrasing and feel.

[yellowdart6666]

@1979saxman as much repertoire as you can stand, which for jazz should be really easy. eventually it will come naturally to you. like thelonious monk said, "You got to dig it to dig it ya dig?"

[erik02c]

Awesome job man, sounds great!

[ankhaton]

That exaggerated one was the best best best

You might even exaggerate more . .

a little bit like Erroll and Petrucciani

as opposed to Tatum

[ankhaton]

And I can heardly imaging

How this would be

with Gary Peacock at your side.

[ankhaton]

I'm so amazed why you don't give big time Concerts !
