There's Monika Lidke's record where Janek seems to act as a quest star, here it is, a nice tune, and a nice solo from the man himself..

you should be checking out "Ah Um", man..

Yep, Gwizdala was the reason why I switched to E-C, and haven't looked back since.. I'm curious, why Hadrien is still caught up with B-G thing..

So what's going to be there in Frankfurt anyway? A gig? Well, Lithuanian Academy of Music does masterclasses from time to time, but there are very few bassists in area (and maybe even fewer cats that are interested in this sort of thing..), so I'm not sure if this would work out.. and, as I...

I've seen a date - November 10th in Frankfurt, Germany.. Is this going to be a masterclass in that city? I'm very tempted to get involved in one, so I might fly all the way from Lithuania.. If so, what about bringing an instrument?

Well, in terms of walking bass, I'm now working on Ray Brown's line on 'C Jam Blues' from Night Train with O.Peterson.. So far, it goes quite simple, but also very musical..

Well, they seemed kinda tricky to me, but, well, you shouldn't give up. All in all, that's a really cracking solo, although I didn't add to my transcribing list, but just because my chops are way too poor to nail it.. Someday :) if you're looking for some 'more' "Autum Leaves', once again...

Really looking forward to your clinics, man.. easy Faith

Wow, dog, that solo is busy.. I'd really want to see how you'll notate those run-ups at the peak of his solo.. I've been really digging Paul Desmond's playing, probably the most favourite sax right now, really sweet sound and lines.. Gonna give it a go on his solo on "autum leaves' with chet...

Well, I also have gotten a few recordings of yours, and I'm listening to them everyday for weeks now.. Cracking stuff. Hearing this thing live should be the next level for me.. Wattabout upcoming record - won't Oli feature in the upcoming album?

That's great news.. Wattabout Lithuanian date, I'll talk to our cats, who make jazz sessions in our local clubs, they should give me some names.. I'll inform you in time, dude. cheers Laimis

Hey, Janek, Are you planning to present your upcoming album in tour, especially European? I'm very tempted to hear your music live ;) cheers from Lithuania Faithless

Hey, Janek, Hope, you're doing good.. A quickie here.. What do you think about practising plain intervals? I mean, let's say, practising a scale in thirds, fourths, fifths and such.. I'm just not sure, if practising this would make difference in my improvising.. Cheers, Faith

I've talked to Hadrien after Billy Cobham's gig in November, if i'm correct, and asked about the album, he said he wasn't sure about the release date, 'next year' (2010) was all I could get..

Hey, Janek, Any chance of answering to my previous question about keys? Take care, Faith
