Hi Mark - I know Bollenbeck's playing on some records w/ J.
DeFrancesco and need to hear more of Krantz - these guys are
monsters. I appreciate your comments on questions and agree
with the tension and release and horizontal approach that
you mention to the "Stella" question. I have always felt it
important to get the scales and arps (at least Maj, min,
dim, whole tone ) in the ear and under the fingers ( I've
recently been finding some interesting uses for lydian
flat7, as well ) - but then focus more on tonality, original
phrasing, time etc. I think Jim Hall is the best
illustration of that developed to a high degree. Thanks for
responding!

Hi Thomas. I'm a nyc based guitarist as well.
I have studied w/ Wayne Krantz, Bruce Arnold and am
now starting to study again w/ my old teacher Paul
Bollenbeck. Do you know him? He's really fantastic.
He's playing at the Zinc bar w/ Jeff "Tain" Watts this
coming week. I'll let you know when if interested.

with Chuck Wayne
and briefly with Joe Pass on the West Coast some
years back. My main
instrument is a '61 ES335 dot but have recently
bought an Anderson
Hollow-T. Please feel free to correspond.
