Sunday

Learning those pentatonic boxes all over the guitar neck has been very helpful in my guitar soloing. I know I should probably work on how to read music for the guitar (at this time I can read passably in the first position only - and not counting always reading rhythms correctly there). Reading music can help me play the melody in our jazz songs.

Yes, still struggling somewhat with what to do with Piano. The Sudnow Method offers sounds so beautiful, but my ability to memorize songs is not fantastic. I have a past method that I restarted today that might, if I’m patient enough to work through it, lead to a more rounded ability to play from fakebooks/lead sheets. 

Here are some recordings that we made yesterday. They are me on guitar, an app playing piano and drums, and our bassist. The recordings aren’t great, but the music is cool:
