Here's a little analysis of a Coltrane line I transcribed today. Feel free to let me know if I'm totally stupid. I'm not so sure about the first bit but most of it is pretty clear.

Goddamnit, I just bashed my bare foot on the corner of the dishwasher door. I remain the clumsiest asshole who's ever lived.

Practice time is over for the day so I'm putting on a record I had to go to Dublin to get. Mochi wants to hang out. She heard that jazz musicians are cats so she's into it. Pretty good day of playing today. Started at 10:15, had to go out for some stuff and had to cook but got a solid 4-5 hours.

I don't know why you would bother making AI videos of old men performing athletic feats when you could just send Marshall Allen videos. youtu.be/PpcP835mWEQ

J'ai vu passer ça sur Facebook... Quand je dis à des gens en Europe que le buzz Angine au Québec est à des niveaux surréels... Reste qu'il y a quelqu'un qui a pensé à ça y'a des mois et tout... Tu décides pas de faire des costumes d'halloween bootleg d'Angine de même sur un coin de table...

Essential if your into avant-garde jazz and creative music. There's some amazing music in here and it's great to hear him speak.

Well, practice time is over for today so I'm popping on some insane live Clifford Brown and Max Roach with Sonny Rollins. What a bonkers band.

Currently spinning some live Jim Hall and Red Mitchell. Here's a relevant section from Bill Crow's Jazz Anecdotes:

I tell this story to all my students and I think they appreciate that their teacher had such a massive fuck up when he was young. I told it today. Twice.

I'm listening to an album I made with my friends in high school and it combines super specific names of students and teachers with odd odd times, stupid early Beastie Boys-esque songs, free improvisation, atonanlity, metal, country music, radio jingles, whatever into a bonkers cocktail of nonsense.

I just danced and sang Game Of Pricks with my daughter in the living room. Now that's parenting.

A very Coltrane-y line. Copenhagen, 1962, Chasin' The Trane.

I stupidly and carelessly split my last good La Voz reed dipping it in water. I have some emergency Rico Royal 2.5s in my case, though. Hoping to find a gem in here.

Ooooo, I just found a live recording of me playing Ornette's Blues Connotation at the Parkside Lounge on the Lower East Side with Chris Kelsey, Francois Grillot and Joao Lobo. Gonna have to put it up on the Bandcamp, it rips. Here's the rest of the set, two free improvisations:

Saxophone players: My student is into classical and pop. I'm going to push him more towards the pop side because sound production is much closer to what I know. I've been making him do all these sound exercises but he's itching to learn a song. What would be some good first songs to learn on alto?
