Hey Janek!

I'm playing this tune at my musicshool and since there is a vid of you playing it on Youtube, I was wandering if you had any advise on soloing over the "b" part? (F7, Bb7, Es7 and so on)

I hope seeing you in Denmark sometime!

well the bridge or "b" section are not dominant chords, they're regular major chords as I remember..... so I would start with a triadic approach outlining the chords in all combinations of root, third and fifth until you have the sound of these changes in your playing. Then work on playing melodically through them.

I'm hoping to be in Denmark in the spring of 2010 with my band. We're making a new record in the new year, and will tour in europe in the spring to promote it.

Easy,

Janek

So there is no "easy" way of thing the bridge.. grr.. Then I gues I'll so have some more fun with it "the hard way".. heh

About you coming to Denmark..

Yeah!!!!!!! I really hope you can make time! - I was coing to the clinic here in november. But it's cool you got some gigs with your band instead
