[quote name='lowdown' timestamp='1364888842' post='2032112'] Actually Rob, twas not a 'Pity' vote. I see you had done some homework on the picture.... [/quote] Nice that someone noticed. I am glad I voted for you now! I tried drums but didn't like what they did to the piece and I didn't want to develop the piece as it was supposed to be simple and cheesy. Poor choices, maybe, but choices nevertheless!

I'll take that vote, even if it's a 'pity vote' Already written April . Now arranging it

Learn to press the strings with lighter technique. You will probably find you working harder than you need to and slowing yourself down as a result.

So Skol, the Pete Sampras of composition wins again.... Come on, my son. Where's this month's picture?

And when you have listened to all that, try some Jazz

There is a thread on here called God...I love Jazz that carries dozens of recomendations. Type 'wheeler'in the search box and you will find it.

Actually, even I didn't vote for me....

I keep getting my own book recommended to me by Amazon. What fun!

I think my work is a minority interest. I am too eclectic for the great unwashed. (that and the fact that my ditty is a bit crap )

Did a trio gig with Essex guitarists Andy Watson and Simon Hurley. Both monster players. A lovely evenings playing. Really reminds me of why I love playing Jazz.

No brainer....

I work with his drummer's brother. Apparently.

Lewis Porter's Coltrane bio is good, as is Myself When I Am Real by Gene Santarro (Mingus). Also Ron Carter's, Scott LaFaro's and Wayne Shorter's

Scott Colley. Marc Johnson. Eddie Gomez. Miroslav Vitous. Larry Genadier Christian McBride. Ray Brown. Jimmy Garrison. Charlie Haden. All major musicians who also play bass.

All the time.

Very little traffic on here this month. I may win by default!!

Monster.

Tony Hougham is over your way. He is pretty hardcore.
