On The Road Again
Hey Gang!
As the title says, I am hitting the road again this month and actually I am writing and posting this note from the Delta Airlines Lounge at LaGuardia Airport in NY heading up to Detroit to play with Fourplay tonight!
After this my travels will take me to California, Ohio, Pennsylvania, NJ, NY, Rhode Island, & Florida! I will be with Fourplay, Jazz Funk Soul, and also I am excited to be presenting the CD "BOP" which I have mentioned before. It is a great lineup of contemporary Jazz Artists playing their favorites fromthe hallowed Bop era - tunes by Dizzy Gillespie, Charlie Parker, Thelonius Monk and more. The players include Jeff Lorber, Everette Harp, Harvey Mason, Brian Bromberg, Rick Braun, Till Broenner, Eric Marienthal, Randy Brecker, Brian Dunne, and fellow AW Prof John Patitucci! We will debut it at 2 shows of Big Band concerts at The Berks Jazz Festival April 14th & 15th which is where the project was born.
The greatest thing of alll about it is that all the proceeds from the sale of the CD go to The PKDcure Foundation to find a cure for Polycystic Kidney Disease. Jeff Lorber and his family suffer from this genetic condition, and it can be very serious and even fatal.So, when you pick upyour copy you will enjoy the music AND support a great cause at the same time!
Buy it here: http://artistshare.com/v4/Projects/Experience/343/462/1/Jeff-Lorber-BOP?v=2 or on iTunes.
Here is the LOTW which deals with V7 chords inserted in a melodic line. Hope you dig it!
Have a great time with your journey to jazz guitar and please have patience with me if it takes me a while to respond to your vids.... and it may be from a hotel room or an airport ehan I do it ;-)
Seeya 'round campus,
Chuck
