Thank you, I’m starting to improvise in my 60’s and just daunted with all the technicalities. I find I’m getting better by just playing and listening and not thinking and analysing.
I always thought that skipping over Louis and heading straight to Bird is like skipping the first part of an epic novel. I played trumpet for years before listening to the Hot 5/7 recordings...an epiphany.
Great video, Mark! I've subscribed, looking forward to more, and I'll spread the word and (hopefully!) help you get to 1,000 subs/4,000 hours/monetization sooner! Please let me know when you're playing a public gig or in the pit for any musical theater in the Nashville area. I'm typing as I'm listening to the vid for the first time, so I wanted to say "thanks" for that Clifford example to kick this vid off. He's my all-time favorite, and IMO, that solo is required vocab for sooooo many reasons! Your playing sounds fantastic as always, and I hope to see/hear you soon! All my best to you and the fam!
BTW... noticed your Ken Slone books, great books I still have and use. I was saddend to learn this weekend (from Jeff Jansky) that Ken passed away last year. I think Jeff played in a band in Louisville, run/fronted by Ken.
Sorry to hear you're having trouble. If you want to send me an email through my website letting me know what main areas you're having trouble with, I would be happy to help answer any questions you have.
