Hi I am from Brazil and you really really plays well. Wish I could play 10 percent of what you do. Great job, keep it up. Have you thought about posting some video classes, instructions? that would be of great help. Thanks. Obrigado. CB
@bluejazzcat I have some Jazz instruction Video's on my Profile also on Blues,you can find them on my profile in a folder if you're interested. Soon on my WebSite I'll also be offering in depth Jazz-concept lessons on improvisation but those will have to be paid for, greetings Vic.
Thanks Victor, Jobim is one of the best composers I know in terms of great melody progressions, the quality is they sound deceivingly simple (like this one) but when analyzed very creative solutions, thanks again,Vic.
Thanks 764.. yes I agree with you, and if you look at this progression it's simply magnificently put together by maestro Jobim, I,ve learned learned so much by playing and analyzing his compositions. It's such a sensitive song with a touch of melancholy,love it,greetings Vic.
Thanks so much Andrea, yes indeed I love Jobim,it's like you mention for people who know how to appreciate love,kindness and emotions in life, you'll find all these qualities in this Music, and like I said before I've never heard a bad composition from Jobim. I'm sorry I'm not an actor(I've been asked that question before) I'm a musician,performing and having my own Music-school, I also do arranging work for others. Thanks for your true attention,hug Victor.
Hi Andrea,I'm not living in the U.S. but in Holland. And as for the president, to be honest I don't have confidence in whatever president once the general mentality of all those pocket-fillers doesn't change, they should start a band: The Greed brothers,greetings Vic.
well Vic, I agree with you! I am going to get a degree in history and as deep I study as far my opinins goes.
I wonder live for other 250 years just to see what the future will bring to humankind...what i see now is not properly what I was dreaming when I was 25... (now I am 37) Dumas said: do not be sad if the world is not like you want it, beacause you found him in this way when you was born, and you'll leave it in the same way when you'll pass away :-)
Indeed holy words, I sit back in my chair and laugh my cheeks sore man,about certain political decisions that are made, even a child of 3 would make better decisions,only they're not president. A total invasion costing millions a day and still Bin Laden is enjoying himself with all his 20 virgins,oops now they're not virgin anymore, LOL, have no illusions bout this world Amigo,just think quietly,greets Vic.
well...I recorded my version of "DINDI" and i wonder know if you agree to allow me to use my version as "answer" to your version. what do you think abou it?
maybe you've already recived my invitation, let me know, okay?
and if you find 5 minutes jump into my space...it will be a great pleasure recieving your comments to mine performances.
Thanks Sticky, Jobim is a very sensitive, great composer, simply love his work which offers every musician a vehicle for further improvisation development. I never heard a bad Jobim composition in my life,all have that sophisticated quality that I love, greets Vic.
Wow! Always love your playing Victor! Your guitar tone, your phrasing, and the way you playing! Nice improvisation too! :) I think my decision to stop playing electric guitar is right...
Hi Lanang..thanks a lot quite some years I've been busy with improvisation on different theme's,and I think it can be wise to choose an instrument and direction,and feel happy about it,diversity also has a high price,all the best greets Vic.
Mister Victor,I think you make the best bluesy atmosphere!Your guitar is awesome and has perfect sound!I've layed Gibsons,Gretsches,Guilds but I've never played in a three-pickup Epiphone Casino!I would be greateful if you could tell me what amplifier you use! 5 STARS,keep on playing my friend,never stop,your sounds are great inspiration to blues guitar fans.
Thanks mister Robby, well live I play a polytone(mini brut 3) (very clean Jazztone) and for Blues gigs A Fender Blues de Ville(tube amp).recording for the Tube my guitar goes straight into my small 4 channel Spirit mixer and stereo signal sent to to my computer, thanks for commenting greets Vic.
This is very good. I had never heard this song until I recorded Liz Morphis and Trevor LaBonte doing it a few nights ago at the Evangeline Cafe in South Austin, Texas. I love the Evangeline Salad with Crawfish and Abita Purple Haze Beer. I like the music too.
Thanks glad you enjoyed ,sorry for the late reaction but for 5 days now I'm not receiving any Tube mails warning that friends have commented,greets Vic.
Thanks, a good remark from you, these chordprogressions are so interesting to play that harmonic wise they can stand next to any Jazz standard,greets Victor.
Hi Victor, I just got a chance to come by. Nice job on Dindi! I hope you do some more Brazilian, like you said. Meanwhile, I see six guitars! But I understand. That's a nice blond you are playing-a 335?
Hi just replied to your comment on WCBlues but couldn't be posted for some URL reason,I love Brazilian and Flamenco as well so certainly more of that will be comming up,you counted my Harem well,Gr Victor.
Great, Victor! Warm and heartful, great phrasing, as allways. But why the hell did it have only 3*** so far??? That would mean "worth watching", not more. But on the other hand, it's true. After all it is worth LISTENING!!!
Ha,ha good sense of humor,close your eyes and the notes may take you to a special destination,close your ears and you're out of luck then your looking at a shallow Picture. Your Statement is so very true,still I'm stuck with those 3 stars,greetings Vic.
Thanks for dropping by man,I have audio(CD) recordings "live" playing with quartet but no video to go with it, you're a great player I'll visit you soon and check out your Vids,greets Victor.
Hi Vic, Nice and relaxed piece of music and well played of course. Great stuff and good sound, I see your enjoying yourself thats what music is all about. Greets, John
Thank you John,this a real nice piece to play and as you know "Jobim" is a great composer and comes from the "Era" that composers where always busy finding a decent "chordprogression"and theme,he was a Maestro.greets Victor.
Hi Jerry,don't let your wife get angry with me that I've inspired you to do that,then she'll be biking or hiking to her work again while you're hitting the strings,
These days I'm using a Mac Core 2 with built in camera which gives excelent results and the Imovies program,you won't see me returning to Windows,this is what I've been looking for,greets Vic.
I'm sitting at the pool having a nice cold beer in Tuscany listening to Victor's latest excellent posting,very relaxing!(I'm dreaming again) 5 Stars bro!
Hi Dave, have one from me too, I think this tune from Brazil will go down good with a nice woman by your side but keep your hands on your Laptop,greets Victor.
I'm diving of the 3 meter, belly flop right by your chair and Get out and have a cold one with you!! HAHA!! diggin' the smooth Mr. Jazzguts too River!

my friend,
first of all allow me to tell you that I really enjoyed your music.
I think you cought the true meaning of Tom Jobim style: tender, soft, warm and only for sensitives souls, like us.
ONE QUESTION:
are you the actor who interpreted the role of capitain police station in the 70's and 80's in the TV series called "CHIPS" ????????
you look like him !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
thank you, and thanks a lot for your gentle notes,
