Hi Pete, that's a great one and I appreciate its slowness - I'll take a deep look into it. Wondered about the many 7b9's, seems that I will have to learn some new things.
All the best, Tom

Really a nice one, Tom. I know that tune very well... played it a hundred times on Mandolin and on electric fiddle as well, but melody only. I really like your chords therefore...
Hi Mandrian, thank you for your feedback, and in fact, I wasn't really sure about the rhythm but finally I decided to let it inside. Maybe I'll post an "alternate take" later.... All the best, Tom
First of all sorry for not posting here for a long time - I was way too busy for the last months. So finally I'm happy to present the promised solo on "A Time for Love" (by Johnny Mandel). There are...
Hi Pete,
really a great one. Love the solo... and nice to see you playing (first time for me).
Best regards
Tom
really great! I love them...

Hi Pete, very helpful stuff again. Goin' to try the Bebop phrases soon, that's exactly what I'm looking for all the time.
Thank you for your hard work... Tom
I was just up to make a video demo this evening of what I meant with the comment above... I show you in playing "What a wonderdul world" on Eb-Mandola as chord melody (you can play it like this on a...
Hi Pete,
thanks a lot for this useful introduction. I learned some new ideas I didn't come on before. Now I compared your introduction to what I do while playing chord melody and I have a question...
wow... I'm looking forward to your introduction. The solo for "A Time for Love" I'm working at those days will contain many drop-2-cord passages too. It'll take one month or two to finish the...
This is a very helpful example for playing drop2-block-chords in a melody lie, the TWINBAY sheet was great too. I discovered that technique several weeks ago but I did not know every pattern so I'll...
So this is finally another one of my favorite Jazz tunes I cannot get enough from. But it looks easier than it is, I worked 9 months (from the beginning) to show you this ;)
...
Hi Jason, really great performance and sound especially of your mandolin. I loved the "Turnaround" from Ornette Coleman. Great start for your new band; I hope there will be some more videos in...
hi @all,
just finished my try to write out the tabs, as requested... well, I have neither seen nor writing out that many tabs so far and in fact I didn't know exactly how to depict the small figures...
Hi Marc,
thank you for your kind words... you made my day :)
@ald: Have an eye on this forum section during the next two weeks; I'll post the tabs soon into the original thread. ~o)
Have a nice...
Hi Pete,
I use D'Addario Chromes Medium Flat wound strings on my Mandola (which is also tuned one tone lower than usual) and I use a heavy string gauge: 0.17 - 0.26 - 0.45 - 0.56. They're giving a...
Wow, really great tune, I love it...! especially the unisono part from 4:45 - is that part of the original song or did you arrange it yourself? Jason, which mandolin are you playing on this concert?...
Hi Marc, really nice playing and soloing. I love your figures... and you are that fast!! (btw where did I know that song from? *gg*) I'm always astonished about how different a song can be...
Hi folks,
just wondered what kind of Mandolin Ry Cooder is playing in that example :disbelief::

Definitely a 12-string instrument, but seems to have a mandolin-sized neck and a...
Hi Jazz Lovers,
there are many recordings of this georgious Jazz/Blues tune (one of the IMHO most impressive ones, by the way, is from Quatuor Ebčne on "fiction"). Finally this is my...
You did the right... I own a BOSS GT-10 which uses the same technique and in my opinion it is very useful for E-mando players as well. Haver fun!
Tom
I play mostly Jazz, ad a little gospel and worship music as well. Miles Davis (I think I like him most of all the great Jazz fathers), Tom Harrell, some standards... the cooler the better.
Tom
very interesting rhythm, zeeku... the phrase seems a bit short for my ears, it's just one bar legth, isn't it? Could have been some little harmonic development such as in the last part of the take....
Hi, sorry for the long time. Thank you all three for your replies, and @Joel: That's a good advice I will try to realize.
Tom
Hi all,
just posted an alternate take of the tune because my lovely wife mentioned it would sound better without the drum machine. So I removed it and I like the result that much I just loaded it up...
