You need to check the ohmage of the speaker and match the amp output. I have heard of people trying this with mixed results. You could blow your speakers. ...
Hey guys, I know Brad Mehldau and Kurt Rosenwinkel have played together on a few albums, can anyone point me to some good ones? I'm particularly interested in...

Do not take one speaker out of your amp and run it with only one. This is a tube amplifier with an output transformer that is designed for 4 ohms - two 8 ohm...
Not that I found anywhere. In most cases he advocates using a mode of melodic minor or major or diminished instead. Actually, that book was a bit of a...
Ron...I can't imagine that Mark Levine had never listened to Johnny Smith, who, in his book, never mentions the melodic minor scale...rather, the harmonic...
I don't practice the Harmonic and Melodic Minor. I think (when I have to) in terms of Key structure, modal Tonal Centers within the Key Structure, and...
On 6/30/04 7:44 PM, "jazz_guitar@yahoogroups.com" ... Hi Joe, I think you did, partly at any rate. I've spent perhaps the past 30 years trying to formulate...
... OK, I just skimmed through the harmonic minor part of his book. Basically what he is saying is that jazz musicians rarely play the "entire scale". He does...
I think the problem with these scales/theory threads are that oftentimes, people just don't know what they need to know. Early on when people are beginners...
Hi Bill, and thanks for the kind words! I played the arrangement on my archtop made by a Finnish luthier (here in Helsinki) called Juha Lottonen, who makes...
Thanks Ken (and Clif)! I talked to a friend who works at Sibelius and he helped me out. I can use their G7 guitar product (cheaper) or their full-on notation ...
I agree with Richard. Used to own a Twin and then a Deluxe. I now own an old Super. GEt a smaller amp. Deluxes are good. I have seen people take the...
Sean: I think the best way to find out is to go to KCSM.org and check their JazzDateBook for the days you'll be in the Bay area. Some musicians don't post to...
My 2 cents: I think the biggest problem with an exclusively "modal" approach that Levine seems to advocate is this: if you try to find only scales (tonesets)...
... Ken, Well, I was looking for something different beyond ii-V-I, or a chord isolated by itself. Most of what I saw in his book was exactly what you just...
... I am with you Pete. That was my impression of his whole methodology, in that he doesn't consider the tonal centers or when to use lydian dominant or the...
... that ... Yeah, I agree with this comment for sure, but I never thought that Levine advocates an exclusive modal approach to playing. I think this sort of...
... I took a jazz theory class from Levine at the local JC and he taught that you play Dorian over all m7 chords. I queried him specifically about that because...
Hi Guys: I want to thank you for the interest and lively discussion I generated with my remarks regarding the Mark Levine book and the lack of use of the...

I just watched Frisell's 'instructional' video (by Rittor Music '96) and it is great (borrowed it from someone so sorry, can't lend it!). He goes through...
Ken, Thanks for the long review of the Frisell video. I've been on a real Frisell kick of late, so the timing is quite good for me personally. I highly...
