    This is the problem with jazz. You have these great players who have practiced for decades, learned scales, chords, music theory, developed a great skill, great tone, spend tens of thousands on all the "right" gear, guitars, pickups, amps, strings etc. and in the end 99% of jazz players end up playing at small wine bars and restaurants and make a couple of hundred bucks for the night...if they're lucky. Both of you are great players and make a fantastic ensemble. Thank you for sharing.

    The organ sound on a keyboard brings me into a nostalgic state. Something about it... this particular piece reminds me of the final scenes of Le Samourai.

      @anthonygiordano792 4 роки тому +1

      Practice with a metronome, 24/7! It becomes muscle memory/ music second nature to be playing in time without a metronome, after practicing with it so much. Over time it will get so much better, so don’t get discouraged. You can also listen to something that has a complicated rhythm, or something you like the sound of rhythmically and transcribe that. You will get better in time
