Re: Name this tune....

 

If you like the tune “A Child Is Born” you absolutely must here the Kenny Burrell recording of this tune. I forget which CD it’s on but it might be on the “Round Midnight” or “God Bess The Child”.

It's definitely on a disc called "Heritage."

Xmas story (finger positions)

 

I'd like to tell a real quick Xmas story. For more than two years I have been
practicing and reading about jazz guitar and trying to make progress. Then I
went through a diffcult stretch due to where I was based (Nigeria) and quit the
job I was doing and etc etc etc, boring stuff that all working people go
through, and I put the guitar down for almost 3 months. On top of everything I
seemed to have developed a pinched nerve or some sort of muscle thing in the
shoulder of my right arm which caused immense pain whenever I did try to saddle
up the ol archtop. Anyway, today, Xmas Eve and all that, the pain seemed to have
eased off in the last week or three, so I destringed, cleaned, restringed and
tuned and thought well, where to start. Back to basics. And I really was worried
that I would struggle to remember the scales and arps and all the rest of it.
Well, praise be (and I'm not a religious type a guy) but my fingers just went on
about their business and within minutes I was running through all sorts of
practice runs etc etc and so on. It was as if my fingers knew where to go and
were just telling me to relax and go with them!!!! Being again so far from home
(this time the Middle East), and away from my loved ones, it really had an
impact. To think that all the work I have put in was not lost feels like a real
Seasonal miracle to me. Now I know that there are many millions of folks out
there in the world who need a REAL miracle just about?now, and I know that me
trying to play the guitar is a trivial little thing,?but this little thing, in
my little world really lifted my spirits. I hope everyone on the group has some
sort of thing to celebrate this Christmas.

All the best to everyone!!!!!

Weee, I can post again

thegoodwizard
 

Well... hopefully.

The jazz group emails stopped coming 3 weeks ago and it wouldn't let me re-register my main email, or even post.

I have just been lurking lately anyway, but I do miss the interchanges. '

Anyway, Merry Xmas to all and I hope Santa leaves a big fat jazz guitar in everyone's stocking...

hehe

Cheers,

Re: Tab to Notation Program

 

G7 by Sibelius has tab and standard notation. I've never tried entering tab, but you could check the specs to see what happens.

Hi, Guitar Pro 6? Both ways I think (Notes>TAB or TAB>Notes).

Re: RIP: Arnie Berle, Guitarist, Multi-Instrumentalist, Writer and Educator #RIP

 

I was in a music store the other day and came across "Fretboard Basics".
It is a collection of his Guitar Player magazine columns from 1978. The one page articles make for a great read especially commuting and waiting for planes.

Or more accurately well to do parents. You have to start pretty
young. Ten years ago four years at Berkly was @ 90K. That doesn't
count lessons for ten or more years prior to the entrance exam.
It also helps to be young and pretty as well as rich. :-)

Re: Google's Revenue $86.1 million per day

 

--- In jazz_guitar@..., "akmbirch" <akmbirch@...> wrote:

Google pulled revenues of $7.92 billion during the latest third quarter, a 92-day period that yields the per-day result of $86.1 million. YouTube gross ad revenue in 2011 of $1.3 billion, and $1.6 billion in 2012. 35 hours of video is uploaded to YouTube every minute.

I wonder what part of those revenues are generated by music content?
If you look at the page views for music and music tuition videos on Youtube alone you can see that music is one of the major factors behind Youtube revenues.

As you have also pointed out a search on Google for MP3s turns up hundreds of links to music pirate sites which have Google ads all over them, yet somehow they can exclude other sites that they do not like, like child pornography, from their index.

Re: best Rock and lots. solo of all time

 

Mark,

Thanks for the kind words! 2010 was an "interesting" year for me (in the context of the old Chinese curse, "may you live in interesting times"), but I'm doing OK, and hoping '11 will be a bit less "interesting". All the best to you and yours!

Cheers,

Juan,

I'm really struggling to find time - what with the new job and all - to get on
and contribute to teh list but I really need to say: Many thanks for the advice
over the past year. I hope you're safe, I hope you're happy and I hope you're
working!

Please take care,

Re: Gibson headstock weakness

Will
 

Bob,

You are dead right.

Splicing in re-enforcements, carefully carving away the
excess to follow the neck contour and then doing a re-finish
takes hours of labour.

I have just refused an Epiphone job because they expected the
whole job for ?30! ($60)

Will


Hi Will,
The problem with repairs is that most folk won`t pay
the labour charges for a proper job with spliced in
re-enforcements and a good re-finish. Hence there are dozens of
poorly repaired necks around.
