One of the best aspects of playing with others is the chance to feed ideas off of each other. In this excerpt over "East of the Sun", check out how Luther Hughes hears my descending repeated note idea and then feeds off it and continues to incorporate it in his walking bassline.
This is why listening on the bandstand MATTERS -- whether you are comping or soloing, you can use the melodic, harmonic or rhythmic information that others are providing to FUEL your own ideas. This excerpt is from a very special DUO concert with Luther Hughes 5/16/24 at Jazz at the Merc (Temecula, CA). To watch the FULL set, click here. |
