So yesterday
was Halloween
If you had been here
You'd have seen
My preference for
the M&Ms
And how I just
kept eating them
We gave away
The Skittles and
The other worthless
Kinds of candy
Dums Dums and
The Twizzlers, too
Kids scooped them up
What can you do?
There's no
accounting
For, they say
The public's taste
And that's ok
"Mas fica" is
The Portuguese
For "More for me"
I mean, at least
That's what a colleague
Told me and
He learned to say it
from his grandad
So I guess
I trust him but
I now have wandered
far from what
I came here to
remind you of:
If bluesy jazz
is what you
love
(Or jazzy blues,
if you prefer;
It's more or less
the same, for sure)
The window for
My next workshop
Is closing soon
So if your chops
Could use an intro-
Duction to
Grant Green and how
He plays the blues–
The scales, the licks
The twelve-bar moves
The chords he uses
To improve
The blues progression–
Come on
down
And sign yourself
Up for the sounds
Of Grant and Hank
And Wynton, too
And I will show you
How they do
The things they do
And how they think
To register,
Just use the link:
Blue Note Blues – Register
Now!
More soon,
David
