One hour straight one one tune with super slow metronome. Left hand 2 feel roots and fifths. Melody only with right. Only perfect time. Repeat each phrase perfectly 3 times in a row. One hour don't stop. Transpose into all keys.

I lean right into those side journeys, that's what builds your own sound and character.

Amazed that Adam is going to Japan. Sounds exciting. Amazing to hear about the snow. You must be relieved. You're always saying how its hot there.

Surprised to hear JAPAN on this channel(I’m japanese so)/Thank you so much to give us great lesson

If I (can permit myself to) have time I will be playing from when I wake up to when I go to sleep lol... Also I have been digging deeper into like the mystical music traditions of the midde east and it has completely changed my approach to music, which I think translates to 'more feel' in my jazz solo's. I would also argue that learning a rhythm instrument and an instrument for harmony changes your approach to improvisation for the better

Nice insightful tips! Keep up the fun and entertaining podcast! 😎🥁🌴🎹🇯🇵👨‍🎓👩‍🎓👂👂👂🎧🎶🎷

Christian McBride, it really struck a chord. Lol. I actually am friends with Reuben Rodgers lol and we live in the same city and I have yet to be able to nail him down for a lesson!!!

Listen means transcribe.

I'm definitely getting a you'll hear it t-shirt so's I can wear it on my vlogs.

I owe a lot to ireal pro I've learned about 5 standards recently. Just the chord progressions though. Not necessarily the melodies. Working off your list.

Give us a records list to hear jazz!!!!!

Why do keep moving the SM7...maybe you want to hide your face OR have the proximity effect going in and out?

stop streching. come to the point.

Couldn’t disagree more. You don’t need more time practicing with your instrument. If you develop real ears you almost need no practice at your instrument once the basic ability to play what you hear is achieved. Matter of fact drilling on mechanical aspects of playing will put you in reverse.
