Re: Simple jazz recordings for beginner playalong

That guitar sound on the C Cameron without drums is supreme for me.

That was sweet music!

Reminds me of the guitar work on the TV show Beverly Hillbillies...if you've ever
seen the show, there is some sweet playing contained in some of the episodes.

Re: Taylor Hawkins

Not a big FF fan, but diggin' Rope! Less on T Hawk below and more on the Foo's and Dave... After listening to the HS interview and hearing C-Love on HS, I find DG fascinating in one area. He seems to find favor in the popularity realm. Letterman loves this guy...I have never heard Dave give as much ...

Re: Toto (Oldenburg) 1990

Jeff's snare certainly was popping! He certainly has got the 'play relaxed' thing happening. Luke is an underrated axe man in his genre of peers. More screen time than ol' Byron got on the 1990 vid that TOTO put out. I liked the guy, but apparently the boys had some issues...especially Luke. Listeni...

Re: Looking For a Mentor

I was working w/Dave in Cool Springs the past two years...his baby steps are simple but foundational. Was actually the reason I moved to TN. This foundation is essential to creativity that lasts . If you simply want to have a thrill lifestyle motivated more by fantasy and illusion then by all means,...

Re: New Vid (Just kick, snare and hat)

Reminds me of the 1, 3, and 5 minute routine I used to slave over. a. Play the exact same groove for 1 min, 3 mins, and then 5 with no variations! Harder than it sounds, especially when you record yourself. b. Do the same as in (a), but change the dynamics...more hat, snare, or BD. c. Same, but now ...

Re: Looking For a Mentor

Still wondering which area of LA to live in to try to meet people. I have to find a permanent place soon anyway It seems finances are an issue. If you have not moved to LA already, I would have cash reserves for almost a year. It is pretty easy to calculate a realistic expense chart. As for housing...

Re: Mark G - what the heck is going on?

Thank goodness there are still gigs out there where you can experiment without being held captive to 4/4...listen to the audience response... they seem to dig it. The lead singer on the other hand seems to be eating 18 donuts as he utters some type of noise. We often forget that the passion is as im...
