Re: Ari Hoenig Digestion Suggestions

Brilliant player but i don`t like him because his lack of swing/ groove and stiffness


That fascinates me cause I've heard him in some situations swing like crazy...interesting.

Re: Ari Hoenig Digestion Suggestions

I think it depends on what you want to get from the music. It took me a while to be able to 'get' these guys - some of their playing still eludes me. Ari...I'm not sure of yet. A lot of the time I think it can polyrhythmic for the sake of it, but then I hear him play straight ahead and it's like DAM...

Todd Sucherman

I know Todd uses this board so this is no way an ass sucking device here. But I have to say, he's perhaps one of the most genuine and humble gents to play our instrument. I was lucky enough to get a meet n greet from him at Styx's show in Glasgow and he must have spent a good 30 - 45 mins with my fr...

Re: Simple jazz recordings for beginner playalong

Well, true, but I don't think any jazz is easy or beginner for that matter. That is recordings from the era, not purposefully played play along's. Unless you're equating tempo to "easiness", which I personally think is a mistake (within reason). Re: Tony for a beginner...just be careful w...

Re: Simple jazz recordings for beginner playalong

Re: Tony for a beginner...just be careful which Tony. The first time I heard him was on Nefertiti and I couldn't take it - I put it away for years.
