Re: Ted Dunbar books - it looks like the following book is the only one that is not specifically guitar related...(sorry I am handicapped in that I don't speak guitarese!!! )

"A System of Tonal Convergence for Improvisors, Composers and Arrangers"

Any specific comments on this book? Worth checking out? Is it recognizable as being related to LCC? (which is unrelated to its worth - just curious)

Thanks

I haven't seen was inside this book. But it's supposed to be based on LCC.

i'm almost back (from work i mean)... and what do we see on aaj but "eb byrne dma on jazz" humbly questioning the qualifications of others. did anyone else notice that the entire dialog (where i told him that to compare his experience with gr's and then read his vitriolic diatribes against g and the concept made him a laughing stock) has been removed?

oh happy day!

"The AAJ forum just imploded again."

dogbite:

everything goes just fine until some dialogue spins out of control because of...???

didn't you say once, "idea vs. ego" or something like that? my thread over there has taught me much about forum politic - step back and get to know the personalities involved, and the motivations for the things they write. for the most part, players are asking honest questions, but some lurk in the background waiting to pounce on the unsuspecting; perhaps not consciously, but this is the way it seems sometimes...

Seems like the Net induces a behavior very similar to road rage in some folks. It's easy to get caught up in, for sure
