Mandozine was hosting a wonderful collection of TablEdit files for mandolin, but as you are probably aware it has not been reliable lately. The site went offline at the beginning of 2019, was...
Very nice!
GREAT playing !!
Great playing!
Here’s the “8th of January.” For anyone out there looking to explore fiddle tunes and all things mandolin, give me a shout at adrian@adriangross.ca to take some lessons. If you’re looking to fulfill...
Excellent! Love the twin mandolin harmony. Got it going on in the studio! I’ve been trying to work out the harmony on Brilliancy and it’s kicking my butt. Fun trying though.
3 and 4 chord swing tunes are a good place to start. Western swing has lots of those, so that may be a good way in. Easy trad jazz (aka Dixieland) is a good way too.
I agree with starting out by listening - what you want to play, listen closely so that you can internalize the substance of what you wish to attain in your playing. The few who have taken the route...
Autumn Leaves is fine, so is All of Me, Lady Be Good, Exactly like You, Minor Swing or Swing 42. Depends on where you want to go.
The Charlie Parker route might start with My Little Suede Shoes...
Very cool, Hayes! Love the harmony section.
When I got ready to learn Big Sciota several years ago, I purchased the sheet from btlmusicnotes.com from your predecessor Nick there. Both you guys are...
Welcome back, Hayes, great break. That tune I’ve played as a straight Rag with double stops. Perhaps I should incorporate some Tinyisms.
Thanx & Happy New Year,

Here are comping ideas for Right or Wrong. I wrote these as quarter, half and whole notes to make reading easier, so use your own jazz timing ideas with these voicings.

That's not quite the story that I heard -- I'm sure he picked up stuff from many sources. The version I heard is that he transcribed these solos in the belief that they were played on the guitar. It...
Great solo Hayes, very nice playing and I really like your sound too! Lots of bebop type lines in that.
Here is the next video, a chording device Barry calls "borrowing". It is taking a sixth diminished chord and borrowing notes from the diminished above or below in the sixth diminished chord/scale...
Nice jazz blues tune with a lot of soulful licks, even without a pedal. You know I'll get the tab & appreciate all of these gems!
Another great one. Love this Bob Wills segment, led by Haggard, from the special. Some years back, I was able to snag the audio of the Wills set off Youtube, then divide up the medley into separate...
These are great Hayes! Thanks so much for what you're doing.
Yes, the Coker book is great for learning modern jazz. Just don't forget to learn how to play the chord changes/chord arpeggio method too - it helps you make sense of the chord/scale method.
I have other books and tapes. The ones by Sam Bush and the Mel Bay books by Jethro Burns. They are pretty good but I think the best one I have is Bluegrass Up The Neck by Niles. There are things...
From a pre-covid concert - Caravan - Danny mandolin, John Previti bass, Amie Curl vocals & guitar, Baakari Wilder - tap percussion:

Hayes, this series is SO well done. My hat is off to you.
Thanks, Roland, for taking the time to transcribe my part.
Jethro loved the Count Basie sound, which is what we were after on that track. He enjoyed playing their ensemble parts in a chordal style...
Here's another version you can play for another chorus...it has the same turnaround pattern of cycling in 5ths.
