Nice...I've getting a little more into playing some jazz lately and I've been stealing your licks! The altered lick from a couple of weeks ago has become a favorite...

[Robert]

Thanks Mark, glad you like it! It's a short lesson, but hopefully people can get something out of it anyway.

as I commented directly on your website very nice lick and great articulation just a little question you don't use your pinky at all in that one :confused: Is that the case all the time ? I also have difficulty to use it in a licks context

Thanks Jipes - I don't think much about what fingers I use. I just use what seems most comfortable for me. If you want to use the pinky, go ahead, I'm not stopping you! :)

Try using this lick anywhere in a blues. It should work pretty good most of the time. Notice there is a "pickup note", so the 2nd note of the lick comes on the 1 of the beat.

That is a fun one! But I can't see the veins in this vid. :confused: ;)

Thats a cool lick Robert. It sounds like of Charlie Parker-ish. I like the chromaticism, really cool.
