Count Your Blessings

Hammond Cheese

Having some fun with Charlie Parker's classic Blues for Alice.  Written in the '40s, it follows a wonderful series of changes structured around the blues.  Combines II/V/I progressions and chromatic movement while going through almost every key.  A real workout.

Blues For Alice

It Can't Get Any Funkier Than This...

Times sure are funky.  Be safe and respect social distancing.

These guys are all so great.  Check out all their music!  Georg is all over that Baritone Sax, Stephan on the grooving guitar and Daniele simply nailing the bass.  Couldn't be more fun for me.
