  • Don Joseph was a poet! HArd to explain what it sounded like sitting in a room hearing him play up close. I miss that experience so much!

  • Great stuff! Ash Wed.!  Needs Caesar!

  • @CrackerJackLee I never saw him play guitar at lessons; we only did theory. He was always slightly askew that someone would even ask for theory lessons by the 1980's!. We used to talk about why inversions would have an impact to the ear, etc. Turk was an amazing guy!!. The heirs to the throne went Turk>Chuck Wayne>Peter Prisco>Ron Naldi

  • @drdancohen

    one should be so lucky... his rhythm guitar work is as classy as his demeanor on stage... what did he say about his approach to chords, voicings and voice leading...

  • @kickass5

    Turk Van Lake looked like a class act... and his rhythm guitar is on the money... i wonder if he ever told you anything about his technique or approach to guitar...

  • ...Staten Island stuff...love it..

  • I remember Turk Van Lake from the 1962 Benny Goodman tour of the USSR> I translated for the band. A lot of water under the bridge...but jazz lives on. Turk was a wonderful musician and a wonderful person. may God rest his soul in peace

  • What a great job by all, too bad there isn't more of this.

  • I used to take lessons from Turk sometime around 1981. He was as nice a guy and as excellent a teacher as he was a player... I was very lucky to have learned from him

  • Absolutely gorgeous.

    Thanks
