Dave Brubeck - Take The 'A' Train - 1966

Morello in this video absolutely epitomises 'cool'. Could anyone else get away with those shades?

Brubeck is the MAN!

lol in this vid he looks more like someone in the secret service :)

Great solo by Dave Brubeck

I love josh dion if you know it...

ya try to find a note that seems like it would be a root note, like its really easy for the blues. and for jazz you could use a major scale, minor scale, any really. its hard to explain but you just find a note that sounds "right" in the song to end a phrase on.. hope this helps

gotta love Dave B. thanks for posting

alright, but how would you figure out what key a song is in if you never hear the song?

which is really what i want to be able to do

@mindingosafado learn music theory and train your ear... to complicate matters, it's not rare for jazz songs to modulate keys, so whatever key the song starts out in is the key that musicians call out before playing a song, but they will not list out every modulation in that new key. if you want to play jazz, being able to transpose keys is a must-have skill.

Perfect Pitch Maybe :)
