    Re: Transcription and video

    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

  3. Re: Block Chord Solo On "A Time for Love" (Almuse Jazzmando)

    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

    Re: Like Someone in Love Chord Melody

    Re: Like Someone in Love Chord Melody

    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...
  12. "A Time For Love" (Johnny Mandel) on Mandola

  13. Re: New Electric Jazz Mandolin videos - Beatles, Blues, and Origi

    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...

    Re: Flat wound strings

    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...

    Re: Jason Anick and his Arrow Jazzbo; video

    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?...

  21. Re: Boss ME 70 multi effects pedal: comments for electric & acous

    Re: What do you play mostly on your E-Mando?

    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.

  23. Re: Some nice Jazz Mandolin Waltz (now in 11/4)

    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....
