This blog is about me and my music. My current focus is on learning piano using the Sudnow Method and guitar improvisation. I currently play guitar in a band that concentrates on playing the early rock and roll of the 50’s and 60’s. I also play guitar in a trio setting that focuses more on the jazzy side. Seemingly irrelevant posts on this blog reflect topics that are probably expressed in my music somewhere.

March 8, 2013
Not a great practice session; not horrible either. Had our singer, drummer (who played bass on one tune), stand up bass player (who also played some sax), other guitarist, and myself. Here I am wanting to focusing Gypsy Jazz instrumentals, but I find myself doing stuff like "When Will I Be Loved," "Goodnight Sweetheart," etc. Also did a jazzy "How High the Moon" for which my solo was less than stellar. I guess before we (or at least some of us) focus on the Gypsy Jazz stuff, I better learn how to solo... However, the other option is to try to get that other guitarist with us so that the current other guitarist with us might focus more on mandolin.
