Read MoreAnother awesome masterclass. This is Chris Potter at the Aebersold camp a couple summers ago. The best part of this is where Potter describes how he breaks down and works on language.
This is one of the best masterclasses I've ever seen. Dick Oatts essentially lays out everything you need to know as an improviser. It's a long one, but WELL worth the watch.
Read MoreSome great answers to a few fan-submitted questions. A short AMA, but part of series Mark is doing. Enjoy!
Read MoreA buddy of mine gave me these a while back and I thought I'd share them with you guys. Redman was in Atlanta a little while ago with his trio at Spivey Hall and HOLY CRAP was that a good concert! Make sure to check out Josh's website and pick up a copy of his latest release, Compass. There's also a new CD in the works with his James Farm Band which you can read about in this related post. The sound is a little low in both Master Class recordings, but that's fairly normal. The third is a recording of a live concert with Bill Stewart (drums), Larry Grenadier (bass), Taylor Eigsti (piano), and of course Joshua himself. Happy listening and hope you enjoy!
