#JazzGuitar #GuitarSky – I'm a classically trained guitarist, playing seriously off and on for about 35 years. I've had some Jazz instruction a long time ago (college). These days, I mostly play Metal. I want to dig into Jazz standards, but I struggle with WHAT to practice.

Currently reading "An African History of Africa," and one of the emergent themes is that empires for which a major source of wealth was robust agriculture repeatedly farmed themselves to death in a time before we had the technical knowledge about how to not do that. Today, we have the knowledge. 😐
