    I love your jazz vibe man!

    It's really tough to roll those triplet feel.

    If you turn your amp louder and if you pick a bit
    softer, you don't squish the notes.... but it's
    all up to everyone's taste. I do mix everything
    anyway.

    I like #9 b9 Rt b7 to M3 on I.

    Great job!

    Great playing Anton! I was impressed with how well you made the changes in a genuine jazzy way. I'll see if I can get to this backing but things are so busy around here. Maybe I'll just take a chorus or two as I don't know the tune (believe it or not!) Great piano work too!

    That is also my favorite Miles tune/solo. It's hard not to smile listening to it.

    Great job!

    The hardest part of playing jazz is simply making it swing and you do that reallty nicely on both instruments (I asusme you're playing keys as well, yes?). I was especially pleased with the way you launched from the head into the solo. Nicely done.
