Congrats Dave BTW on the good review in Downbeat Magazine on your latest album.
I actually had a similar thought as Doerschuk about the two directions in the album, with the originals on the one hand and the more cerebral covers on the other. I'm sure others are, like me, looking forward to seeing where your originals go in the next one.
(Also I was delighted that he singled out Times Square, which was an instant favorite of mine on this album.)

Dave,
I just finished watching all 6 videos. I've never seen anything like it on Youtube. The whole package is just unbelievable. Especially pt 5 and 6 where you break it down for guys like me. 6 months to do this? Sign me up right now!
One thing you did not talk about is the relation between the 2 melodies. Should one attempt to create counter melodies and such?
Also, are the LH lines always to be played right on the beat, or can you play with that?

I really enjoyed hangin with you this weekend, that was quite the night with Keith, huh? Glad you were able to make it to the Apple..very good ?'s. The connection between the LH improvised bassline and the RH improvised line is, in my view, optional. We're trying, in basic terms, to improvise two separate lines at the same time over the same changes. If you want to try to connect them two lines somehow, that would be interesting, it would work and add a bit of a different dimension to the overall sound, but it's not necessary, and it would be even harder:)In terms of playing off the beat with with the bassline..you can do anything if it sounds good. Adding the swing 18th and trips as in section 6 (?) helps to break the constant 1/4 bassline feel. Boy, playing the bassline actually on the offbeats would be weird, see how it works..

Hi Dave, Nice stuff here. But I'm not sure you can 'advertise' your wares here. If I did what you just did, they'd rip me a new one. Nothing personal of course.

yeah, I was a good boy. I ate my Chinese food and didn't even cough once. Keith was amazing, I'm really glad I made it.

Please enlighten me as to which wares are not to be advertised. 100% giving, not asking for anything.
Thanks for helping me

Dave Frank OK. You're asking people to visit your website in the videos. As I said before, I could care less. You could advertise all you want for all I care but... that means it opens the door for others to do so as well - myself included. I've got a ton of 'freebies' I could post here, but if I did, I'd most likely be 'reported' to the mods. For example, suppose I started a thread that read: "New Age Piano Clinic with Edward Weiss now on YouTube." Don't think for a second that a thread like that wouldn't get flamed. And I will start one if yours is allowed to stand. Fair is fair. As I said before, nothing personal.

Why don't you actually participate more here and post a sig file like the rest of us. It would give you more 'cred' then simply popping in and posting your 'clinics.'

I have enjoyed several of Dave's clinics by finding them here, and never thought a second thing about it! 100% giving is totally the feeling I got from them!
I may not be fast, but at least I'm slow.

What better person to explain this kool complex technique than someone who has learnt directly from the magnificent Lennie Tristano, can sound like Dave McKenna, and who can explain jazz concepts so clearly ?
Thank you Dave for your continuing generosity. You don't know how many times I have referred back to your masterclasses on Charlie Parker, Frank Zappa and Bill Evans.
